Photocatalytic degradation of olive oil mill wastewater from two-phase continuous centrifugation process was studied. A novel photocatalyst with ferromagnetic properties was characterized and investigated. The degradation capacity of the photocatalytic process of olive oil washing wastewater (OMW) and mixture of olives and olive oil (1 v/v) washing wastewaters (MOMW) was demonstrated. At lab-sc...

Anaerobic digestion of biomasses originates different products, the most abundant of which are methane and carbon dioxide. During this process, a 60-70% organic matter reduction occurs and the final product, the digestate, is characterized by high biological stability and high contents of recalcitrant organic molecules and nutrients. In the present work digestates obtained by different mixture ...

For olive genetic improvement work it is very important to obtain a high rate of seed germination and a shortening of the juvenile period of the plants raised. By in vitro embryo culture, a 100% of germination is attained in a few days and the supply of adequate nutritive solutions and photoperiod speeds up seedling development during hardening, thus shortening juvenility. Mycorrhizal is anothe...

In this work, differential protein expression in olive tissues after salt treatments has been investigated. Olive clones selected in vitro according to their salt tolerance were submitted, also in vitro, to high salt concentrations. After each treatment, the leaves and stems were collected and protein extracts of them subjected to polyacrilamide gel electrophoresis to analyse their band pattern...

The intensification of agriculture in olive groves, especially the modification or elimination spontaneous vegetation, alters relationships arthropod communities and reduces their interactions ecosystem services. This study was carried out nine groves which there either a planted cover crop, crop bare ground. ground-dwelling, canopy flying arthropods trophic webs were calculated for each grove ...

This study we have conducted an ethnobotanical survey and antimicrobial activity in Tetouan province to identify the use of famous plant species traditional medicine : fig tree Olive follow-up during three stages for green, pink black olives mixing olive extracts. 80 questionnaire sheets were done April-June 2019, method diffusion was used activity.Bacteria yeasts used: Staphylococcus aureus, P...

The productivity of olive trees in arid and semi-arid environments is closely linked to irrigation. It is necessary to improve the efficiency of irrigation techniques to optimise the amount of olive fruit produced in relation to the volume of water used. Partial root-zone drying (PRD) is a water saving irrigation technique that theoretically allows the production of a root-to-shoot signal that ...

Oleuropein contents (OLE) in leaves and fruits of from seven olive Syrian varieties harvested at spring and fall were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. The results showed that, the concentration of OLE leaves samples measured in spring was higher than those determined in fall samples, where the OLE concentration in spring samples ranged between 5.6 9.2 mg/g. The highest conc...
