FILTRATION FOR OLIVE OIL

Depth Filtration for Olive Oil: Our Solutions to Preserve Quality and Extend Shelf-Life

The global olive oil industry faces increasingly complex challenges in the production of quality extra virgin olive oil

From the management of vegetation water to the reduction of residual moisture, from the preservation of polyphenols to the stabilization of the finished product, every phase of the production process requires advanced technological solutions. Traditional clarification methods often compromise the organoleptic characteristics of the oil, causing significant losses of bioactive components and reducing the product's shelf-life. Increasingly stringent regulations on residues and the growing market demand for premium oils require innovative approaches that combine production efficiency and quality.

The economic value of filtration

The global olive oil market shows constant growth driven by demand for premium products. However, post-production losses due to inadequate clarification processes represent a significant economic criticality for producers. The National Academy of Oil and Olive (IT) highlights how effective filtration can increase product shelf-life by up to 40%, translating into substantial competitive advantages.

AEB Filtration: depth filtration applied to the olive oil sector

EB specific solutions represent the technological evolution in olive oil filtration, developed specifically to overcome the limitations of traditional systems. Our filter sheets and lenticular modules utilize a hollow structure with high volume that guarantees:

Technical performance

AEB Filtration DFR Series Filter Sheets:

• DFR 06: permeability 2800-3600 l/m²/min - roughing filtration
• DFR 09: permeability 1500-2100 l/m²/min - optimal polishing
• DFR 15: permeability 960-1240 l/m²/min - vegetation water retention
• DFR 30: permeability 350-400 l/m²/min - advanced fine filtration

AEB DISC Series Lenticular Modules: available in 12" (332 mm) and 16" (410 mm) configurations, they offer graded performance from coarse filtration (DISC 03) to fine filtration (DISC 33), guaranteeing total operational flexibility.

SCIENTIFICALLY VALIDATED RESULTS

Polyphenol increase

Tests conducted in collaboration with CNR-IBE (2019) demonstrated extraordinary results:

Parameter	Control	AEB DFR 09	AEB DFR 30
Polyphenol increase T0	-	+10,7%	+23,9%
Polyphenol increase 2 months	-	+40,7%	+38,7%
Moisture reduction	0,29%	0,14%	0,10%

Clarification

Nephelometric analysis shows a turbidity reduction from 981 NTU to 16 NTU after 6 months from filtration, maintaining the brilliance and stability of the product over time.

Versatile applications

AEB and AEB Filtration technology adapts perfectly to different production configurations:

• Post-decanter: removal of coarse solid particles
• Post-centrifugal separator: intermediate clarification
• Pre-storage: final product stabilization
