The solid waste residues from olive oil mills constitute an environmental threat if disposed of in the natural environment, as it is common practice in many areas. This review summarizes the efforts of the scientific and technical community to develop appropriate technologies for the valorization of these wastes. The majority of the research towards this purpose focuses on the recovery of high-added value compounds, the production of adsorbents, the production of compost or soil amendment products, and applications related to energy generation either through biotechnological processes or through advanced thermal processes.
