Sustainable recovery of phenolic compounds from olive mill wastewater. An LCA evaluation
The disposal of olive mill wastewater is one of the main environmental problems of olive oil production. The interest in the recovery of olive mill wastewater has increased in recent years, as their purification from potentially harmful molecules, such as phenolic compounds. The aim of this work was to study the sustainable recoveries of phenolic compounds from olive mill wastewater, through an integrated Life Cycle Assessment and Eco-Care Matrix evaluation.
