The olives are harvested by hand or by shaking the tree with sticks or with machines. After collection, the fruit is transported as soon as possible to the olive press (or otherwise olive mill, commonly known as liotrivi, "bathhouse" or factory) to avoid fermentation and the growth of mold that degrades the quality of the olive oil. In olive mills, the processing begins with the weighing, sorting and washing of the olives. The olives, which have been placed in crates or bags, are transported by elevators to a large basin located on a hill of the olive mill. From there they fall by funnels into crushers or millstones. This is followed by the kneading of the olive pulp, with stirring for half an hour or an hour in devices called "mushers". The oil mass can also be heated there to improve oil yield. For good quality olive oil, the kneading is done "cold", i.e. at room temperature. After kneading, in the traditional presses (which are now few and far between in Greece), with the help of powerful hydraulic presses, the olive liquids are extracted, which is a mixture of olive oil and watery components of the fruit. In modern oil mills the separation of liquids from solids is done by centrifugation in devices called "decanters". The solid by-product that remains is called the "core". The liquids taken from the decanter (basically a mixture of water and oil) are directed to one or more centrifugal separators where the oil is separated from the aqueous portion due to a difference in density. The watery components that are excreted are commonly called "catsigaros" and are dark brown in color and have a characteristic odor. In the oil mills there are also tanks where the scum and the water used to wash the oils are collected. The liquid waste from the olive mills (also known as "catsigaros") used to be discharged into the environment, which is why most olive mills were located near streams or even near the sea. In modern times this waste is considered a pollution for the environment and various measures are taken to treat it or store it in septic tanks. In some cases, industrial olive oil is produced from the liquid waste by centrifugation, which is intended either for refining or for industrial use. In any case, the management of liquid waste from olive mills is difficult because they have a high organic load and odor. The solid waste is commonly called "core" or commonly "slag". This is composed of cellulosic substances from the stone, flesh and skin of the olive. The kernel contains a significant amount of olive oil which is obtained by physicochemical methods in kernel oil mills.
