In a boutique facility targeting high-quality gourmet olive oil production, our fully enclosed, climate-controlled, and chiller-supported integrated olive oil extraction system has been commissioned to obtain top-tier olive oil while preserving the fruit's natural nutritional values, phenolic compounds, and aromatic structure.
The primary objective of the project is to precisely control temperature increases during the crushing and malaxation stages, yielding low-acidity, premium-grade cold-extracted olive oil with high polyphenol content.
Technical Process and Our Advanced Engineering Approach
In high-polyphenol olive oil production, temperature and air contact are the two biggest enemies. Our advanced engineering infrastructure completely eliminates these risks:
Chiller-Supported Paste Cooling Infrastructure: To prevent the olive paste from heating up during the crushing and malaxation stages, chiller-supported cooling jackets are integrated into the system. This allows the paste temperature to be precisely held stable within the desired cold-extraction limits (<= 27 °C and below).
Oxidation-Free Fully Enclosed Facility Architecture: Air (oxygen) contact with the olive paste and olive oil is cut off throughout the entire process, preventing the loss of phenolic compounds (polyphenols) and volatile aromatic substances.
Precise Phase Separation (Decanter and Separator): Thanks to specialized centrifugal architecture, the olive paste is processed with low mechanical stress, and the oil phase is separated from the vegetation water and sediment with high precision.
Key Deliverables and Added Value
Maximum Polyphenol and Bioactive Value: The natural antioxidant, vitamin E, and polyphenol contents of the olive fruit, unexposed to thermal and oxidative stress, were transferred to the oil at maximum levels.
Superior Organoleptic (Sensory) Quality: Thanks to thermal control, flawless fruitiness, balanced bitterness, and pungency were achieved in the olive oil, ensuring product quality tailored for the premium gourmet segment.
High Value-Added Production: Moving beyond standard olive oil processing, high commercial value product generation was accomplished for the health-focused specialty olive oil market.
