A sensitive and simple procedure is described for determining the total phenolic/antioxidant levels of olive oil mill wastewater (OMW),using for the first time Co(II)/ethylenediaminetetracetic acid (EDTA)-induced luminol chemiluminescence. Olive oil wastewater sampleswere tested for their composition in simple phenolic compounds as a function of the extraction system (two- and three-phase centrifugationsystems). The results revealed that the three-phase system had a stronger antioxidant activity and a higher total phenolic content than the twophasesystem. The relationship between antioxidant values and total phenolic content is also discussed.D 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
