The possibility of applying cloud point extraction (CPE) using Genapol X-080 as surfactant for the separation of phenolic compounds from olive mill wastewater was examined. The ability of the surfactant to recover individual and mixtures of polyphenols and tocopherols in various concentrations from aqueous solutions was tested before its application for the recovery of phenols from olive mill wastewater. Many of the examined individual polyphenols were recovered at high percentage. Especially, in the case of Luteolin, low surfactant concentrations were sufficient for quantitative removal. The recovery appeared proportional to the surfactant concentration. The complete recovery of tocopherols was also possible. Total phenol recovery by simple and successive CPE of olive mill wastewater with various concentrations (2, 5 and 20%, v/v) of Genapol X-080 was up to 89.5%.
