    Investigation into the bioremediation and benefication of olive-derived wastewaters from the Western Cape
    (2005) Garcin, C J; Burton, Stephanie Gail
    Since this was the first research project into olive wastewaters produced in South Africa, the scope of the project was broad, and recommendations were made for further research in several directions. Most importantly, the development of smallscale treatment systems that could be used on site would be of great benefit to olive and olive oil producers, as they are often remote and do not have access to appropriate treatment facilities. In addition, the combination of unit operations, such as an extraction system and a biological degradation system, would allow for the recovery of a valuable product that would offset the cost of producing a treated effluent.
