Enhanced of Olive Crop at Serra da Mantiqueira Region using Green Technologies.

Abstract

The main purpose of this work is the enhance of extra virgin olive oils produced in the Serra da Mantiqueira region applying green technologies from the olive crops residues. Brazil is a major consumer and importer of extra virgin olive oil. Fortunately, in favorable microclimates, with altitude above 1000 meters, national olive growing has been shown to be technically and commercially viable. Olive growing in the Mantiqueira range has been consolidating as a promising alternative agribusiness directed mainly to small properties. However, the quality parameters of the extra virgin olive oils need to be improved to participate this great national market. The main technological purpose of this work is the addition of antioxidants extracted from olive residues using pressurized fluid technology. Antioxidants will be incorporated into olive oil by biopolymer films containing cyclodextrins impregnated with extracts rich in phenolic compounds to improved them oxidative stability. The environmental, economic, social and / or innovation impacts of this work are showed in the form of product and process development address at reducing the impact of agro-industrial activity, increasing the share of economic activities with greater technological base, and improving undergraduate education among others. Finally, although this work is a significant and impactful regional problem, its contribution will undoubtedly reach the national and international level in the high-end olive oil production chain.
