In this work, carried out in the frame of the ETOILE research project (FP7-SME-2007-1, grant 222331), we give an account of a cellulase cost-reducing process centered on the use of olive oil production by-products: olive pomace (OP) and olive oil mill wastewater (OOMW). OP has been tested as inducer for cellulase production in T. reesei Rut C-30 and it showed the same, if not bet- ter, induction power compared with that of cellulose, a classical inducer for this process. Moreover, the effect of a certain num- ber of phenolic compounds, usually founded in OOMW, as been tested on cellulase production. Preliminary results will be shown regarding the feasibility of a simultaneous OOMW-biotreatment and cellulase-production process.

Abstract
In this work, carried out in the frame of the ETOILE research project (FP7-SME-2007-1, grant 222331), we give an account of a cellulase cost-reducing process centered on the use of olive oil production by-products: olive pomace (OP) and olive oil mill wastewater (OOMW). OP has been tested as inducer for cellulase production in T. reesei Rut C-30 and it showed the same, if not bet- ter, induction power compared with that of cellulose, a classical inducer for this process. Moreover, the effect of a certain num- ber of phenolic compounds, usually founded in OOMW, as been tested on cellulase production. Preliminary results will be shown regarding the feasibility of a simultaneous OOMW-biotreatment and cellulase-production process.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
