The
aim of the research project was the scientific monitoring and
evaluation of the performance of the three olive mill waste
management pilot plants “Olive mill Th. Giannaka, Afalonas”,
“Olive mill P. Kantaris & Son, Vasilika”, and
“Cooperative Olive mill of Anemotia” on Lesvos Island. The
monitoring program involved an overall supervision of the
operation of pilot plants. This was achieved by a weekly on
site visit program combined with the determination of several
chemical and environmental parameters.
The
necessary analyses have been performed at the Department of
Environment’s chemical laboratories by a graduate of the
department and included pH, SS, conductivity, BOD, COD, Total
Phenols, K+ and Na+.
