TL;DR: The use of a polyphenol-oxidase from olive husk is proposed for the enzymatic removal of low-molecular phenolics in OMWW.

TL;DR: Soil germination capability after irrigation with OMW was assessed in long-term pot experiments and the relative germination percentage of tomato was higher when the soil was irrigated with treated OMW rather than with untreated ones, although it was lower than the control.

TL;DR: Pure-grade oleuropein, a bitter, hypotensive, phenolic glucoside, was obtained from organic extracts of olive plant leaves by two Chromatographic steps and β-glucosidase had a good long-term stability, an encouraging result in view of possible industrial applications.

TL;DR: From the dependence of the kinetic parameters on both deactivation and hydrolysis temperatures, it is inferred that the deactivation mechanism involves intermediate, temperature‐dependent, less‐active forms of the enzyme.
