Great results with OptiCept's CEPT® technology are attracting a lot of interest in the olive oil industry
A scientific study demonstrating both improved efficiency and increased extraction of olive oil with OptiCept's technology attracted over 50 participants from leading olive oil producers to a seminar organized by OptiCept and the Spanish government research institute IFAPA.
During the 2022-2023 season, OptiCept Technologies has worked with the research institute IFAPA to analyze the effect of the CEPT® technology. The results confirm the good effects of the treatment on olive oil extraction, which is now attracting a lot of attention in the Iberian Peninsula.
Two main varieties of olives have been tested during these trials; Arbequina and Picual, with good results for both varieties. Both improved process efficiency and significantly increased extraction could be demonstrated for both olive varieties. For Picual, the extraction rate increased by 7.57%, and for Arbequina by 4.55%. In addition, quality improvements were demonstrated in the form of increased nutritional content. To illustrate the great value - a customer with an oliveCEPT® BALDER installed with a capacity of up to 10 tonnes per hour extracts up to 3 tonnes more extra virgin olive oil per day during 24-hour production.
"We wanted to create a more solid scientific basis in our discussions with customers, with the outcome from IFAPA we are now validating not only the technology but also the great interest we already have seen for the 2023 season. This feels great to have with us before our offensive investment during Q3-Q4", comments Thomas Lundqvist, CEO, OptiCept Technologies.
The seminar, which was organized in the heart of the Spanish olive oil industry, in Jaén, attracted several of the industry's most important players.
“It was a great event! We had a large audience at the meeting, with interesting questions and discussions, great interest, and enthusiasm. The results will be published in the Spanish media and help us spread the word about oliveCEPT®”, says Carlos Fuentes, OptiCept Iberica.
IFAPA was founded as early as 1902 and has since carried out studies in olive cultivation and the production process for olive oil with the aim of contributing to the modernization and improvement of the industry's competitiveness.
