Olive Pomace Oil Production and Marketing Dynamics by Artem Oliva
Olive pomace oil is one of the best olive oil types in the world when considered price and quality of olive oil different aspects. These aspects include the areas of use such as high temperature cooking, price and packing availabilities. Artem Oliva, as an olive oil factory in Turkey, is offering the best olive pomace oils from Turkey to whole world.
Olive pomace oil is produced from the mixture of extra virgin olive oil and the refined pomace oil. What is pomace oil is the olive oil that is left in the pomace (solid waste produced from olive oil production). This olive oil left in pomace cannot be extracted with the traditional methods of virgin olive oil production such as physical pressing or so.
Therefore, there must be a way to extract that olive oil from the pomace with the purpose of economic advantage. This process of extracting pomace oil from the pomace waste and making it edible is called as olive pomace oil production.
First step is to carry the olive pomace to the factory where its pomace oil will be extracted. In this facility producers use different types of solvents to extract it. Then, the raw pomace oil is sent to refinery for refining operation.
Artem Oliva, olive oil company in turkey, has its own olive oil refinery where the pomace oils are refined to be edible again. Once refined, it is a high-quality olive oil that gained different characteristics such as high tolerance against heat and being colorless and tasteless and so on.
Raw pomace contains about 65% to 70% of water in it. This needs to be dried. First step is “pomace pitting”. In this step hard wood-like materials are separated from the pomace. This decreases the weight of the pomace around 10% to 15% and increase the water content about 5% to 10%. These hard materials are used as combustion material.
After that step a decanter is used to extract the first oil from the pomace after pitting. In this step there are three outputs. Therefore, it is called as three-phase step. 1st output is wastewater. The second one is solid residue (contains about 40% water). The third one is crude pomace oil (contains about 50% of extractable oil).
The crude pomace oil is already ready for refining. However, the oil left in the solid residue also needs to be extracted. In this step, there are solvents that are being used to extract this oil left in these materials. However, before this step, it needs to be dried for the sake of effectiveness of solvent using operation.
After the extraction of the rest of the oil with solvent, the crude pomace oils are sent to refinery. In Artem Oliva olive oil factory, the refining is done by the refinery facility of Artem Oliva, therefore the cots are kept at minimum levels.
The process of refining contains Gravity settling, Chemical neutralization, Bleaching and Deodorizing.
Once all the processes are done, the output is a high quality and sensory terms naturalized oil that can be used in many different areas. Before explaining the areas of use of olive pomace oil, we need to see the different types of olive pomace oils. First one is the crude olive pomace oil which is the raw form of the pomace oil in its first extracted condition.
Refined olive pomace oil is the second output of olive pomace oil production. It is the neuter form of pomace oil. It is edible in this step.
The last and the most important type is olive pomace oil that is composed of crude pomace oil and virgin olive oils. This type of olive pomace oil is the one that is demanded and exported and produced in the world by many countries of Mediterranean where olive tree is growing.
