Ítem Influence of the Degree of Fruitiness on the Quality Assessment of Virgin Olive Oils Using Electronic Nose Technology(MDPI, 2024-04-12) Navarro Soto, Javiera; Rico Illana, Sergio; Martínez Gila, Diego; Satorres Martínez, SilviaThe electronic nose is a non-invasive technology suitable for the analysis of edible oils. One of the practical applications in the olive oil industry is the classification of virgin oils based on their sensory characteristics. Notwithstanding that this technology, at this stage, cannot realistically replace the currently used methods, it is fruitful for a preliminary analysis of the oil quality. This work makes use of this technology to develop a methodology for the detection of the threshold by which an extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) drops into the virgin olive oil (VOO) category. With this aim, two features were studied: the level of fruitiness level and the type of defect. The results showed a greater influence of the level of fruitiness than the type of defect in the determination of the detection threshold. Furthermore, three of the sensors (S2, S7 and S9) of the commercial e-nose PEN3 were identified as the most discriminating in the classification between EVOO and VOO oils.Ítem Zero Defect Manufacturing in the Food Industry: Virgin Olive Oil Production(MDPI, 2022-05-20) Satorres Martínez, Silvia; Rico Illana, Sergio; Cano Marchal, Pablo; Martínez Gila, Diego; Gómez Ortega, JuanThis paper provides a zero defect manufacturing (ZDM) approach designed for the virgin olive oil (VOO) industry, with the objective of producing the best possible product using sustainable methods. A deep analysis of related work for ZDM and the current state-of-the-art technology in the VOO elaboration process is presented, along with the implications of the well-known trade-off between quality and extraction yield and the importance of having the right information on the state of the fruits and the main technological variables of the process. Currently available new technologies, such as smart devices with cloud connectivity, enable having the required amount of data and information in real-time, thus making the concept of ZDM possible. Together with the proposed ZDM approach and strategies, the basic requirements and the first steps towards the implementation of ZDM in this productive sector are identified.
