This study investigated the impact of water addition on the ethanol content and composition of virgin olive oil, finding that the three-phase system resulted in oils with 25% lower ethanol content compared to the two-phase system. Water addition led to a more significant reduction in ethanol for the three-phase system.
Ethanol is the alcoholic precursor of fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs) in virgin olive oil (VOO). Because of its miscibility, water addition during oil extraction may affect oil ethanol content and then, the FAEEs synthesis during oil storage. In this work, the effect of water addition on VOO ethanol content and composition is studied. Water addition at two extraction systems (two and three phases) is compared and for vertical centrifuge, water addition at different temperatures is assayed. Ethanol content, quality parameters, and healthy components are determined in the oils. Results indicate three phase system gives oils with a 25% lower ethanol content than two phases. Ethanol reduction because of water addition is more important for three phases system (approximate to 14%). For vertical centrifugation, ethanol is lowered as water dose and temperature increase. In general, water addition for any of the extraction steps analyzed reduces the oil ethanol concentration but other aspects such as fruity intensity and phenol content are also lowered. Practical applications: Virgin olive oil final ethanol content, and then its FAEEs concentration, does not only depend on the health and conservation status of olives, but also on the extraction system used and the amount of water added to the extraction process. The knowledge of the impact on ethanol content of water addition during oil extraction can be useful for olive oil legislators in order to keep the approved limits of FAEEs or to modify them. For oil producers, results can help to reduce the oil ethanol content and then FAEEs synthesis during virgin olive oil storage.
