Valorisation of fresh olive oil pomace for biogas production

, 2023
Olive oil is a liquid fat obtained by pressing whole olives and directly extracting the virgin oil through mechanical processes. The remaining residue is a liquid/solid mixture called olive oil pomace, containing about 60 to 80% water.

Tunable Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents‐Driven Fractionation of Olive Pomace in an Integrated Biorefinery: Linking Lignin Structural Tailoring to Carbohydrate Valorization and Biopolymer Production

ChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
Microwave‐conditioned olive pomace was fractionated with deep eutectic solvents (DESs) spanning acidic, neutral, alkaline, and chemo‐enzymatic regimes. The alkaline DES provided the best balance between delignification and carbohydrate preservation, yielding a fermentable glucose/xylose stream suitable for Haloferax mediterranei fermentation and poly(3‐

In silico prediction and structural characterization of multifunctional bioactive peptides released from olive proteins

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 9, Page 5463-5482, July 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Olive (Olea europaea L.) byproducts, such as seeds and leaves, are abundant agro‐industrial residues and represent underexplored protein sources with potential health relevance. However, the repertoire of bioactive peptides that may be released from olive proteins during gastrointestinal digestion remains poorly characterized.
