Hammer Mill Sieve Design Impacts Olive Oil Minor Component Composition
2019
Polari, Juan J. | Wang, Selina C.
Crushing of the olive fruit is the first operation for olive oil extraction. The hammer mill is one of the most popular devices used in modern facilities due to its easy maintenance and high product output. The effect of hammer mill rotor speed and sieve design, including screen size and screen open area on extraction yield, overall quality and minor component composition, is evaluated at the laboratory scale. Quality parameters such as free fatty acids (FFA), peroxide value (PV), and UV absorbances (K232, K270, and ΔK) are unaltered by crushing parameters. Extraction efficiency, chlorophylls content, total phenol content, 3,4‐DHPEA‐EDA, and p‐HPEA‐EDA increase with faster hammer mill rotor speed and smaller screen size. Volatiles (E)‐2‐hexenal, hexanal, 1,5‐hexadiene‐(3,4)‐diethyl, 3‐ethyl‐1,5‐octadiene, and (E)‐2‐hexenol are only affected by screen size. Screen open area is found to be a relevant factor regarding extraction efficiency, chlorophylls, total, and individual phenols as well as the volatile compounds 1,5‐hexadiene (3,4)‐diethyl, 3‐ethyl‐1,5‐octadiene, hexanal, and (E)‐2‐hexenal. Practical Application: It is found that screen open area is a relevant factor regarding extraction efficiency, chlorophylls, total and individual phenols and volatile compounds, in addition to the screen size and rotor speed. This is useful information for millers who are interested in optimizing extraction efficiency as well as the minor compounds of extra virgin olive oil. Hammer mill sieve design impacts extraction efficiency, chlorophylls, total and individual phenols, and the volatile compounds during laboratory‐scale extraction of olive oil.
