Evaluation of Byproducts That Cause Environmental Problems in Olive Oil Production

Abstract

In olive production, which has a very important place in the country's economy, in addition to main products such as olive oil and table olives and olive oil, solid and liquid by-products such as "Pirina" and "Blackwater" are formed in olive oil factories. Against pomace, which can be evaluated economically, black water is left indiscriminately to the environment. Most of the wastes that occur on average as 200 billion tons each year are either left to nature as garbage or used as fuel, animal feed or fertilizer with a little processing. Environmental pollution that appears with increasing industrialization and population, and the economic consumption used to eliminate pollution cause wastes to become a biomass problem.
