Recovery of Natural Hypoglycemic Compounds from Industrial Distillation Wastewater of Lamiaceae.

ABSTRACT: The food industry generates the largest number of valuable by-products. The recovery of compounds such as fatty acids and polyphenols with notorious biological properties from biowaste is a new challenge in the circular economy scenario, as they represent value-added starting materials for the preparation of functional foods, food supplements, cosmetics and over-the-counter drugs. Less commonly explored are industrial wastewaters, which return to the nearby water streams without adequate treatment. Distillation wastewater (DWW) from the essential oils or agro-food industries may represent a valuable source of bioactive compounds to be valorized. In this work, DWW from rosemary was treated with different resins through dynamic and static adsorption/desorption approaches, for the recovery of
