CYCLOLIVE

From waste to resource: reCYCLing OLIVE oil extraction byproducts for sustainable agricultural practices in the Mediterranean region

Project ID: 1977

The CYCLOLIVE project aims to integrate the treatment of olive mill wastewater (OMWW), the recycling of olive pomace or olive mill solid waste (OMSW), currently underutilised, and renewable energy strategies into practical and innovative solutions. These solutions will be user-friendly, environmentally friendly, and cost-effective. The ultimate goals are to reduce pollution, improve water availability for irrigation, lower food production costs, decrease reliance on conventional energy sources, and reduce CO2 equivalent emissions. By achieving these objectives, the project aims to contribute to the European Green Deal's ambition of attaining climate neutrality by 2050.
