Sustainable wine industry: supercritical fluid extraction as key technology for biorefinery enhancement

Abstract

Supercritical carbon dioxide (sc-CO2) extraction is an environmentally friendly technology employed for bioactive compounds recovery from various natural sources and biomasses. The advantages of sc-co2 extraction include its selectivity, relatively mild operating conditions, which minimize the degradation of sensitive compounds, and the absence of potentially harmful organic solvents.  The inherent versatility of the supercritical fluid extraction (sfe) system, facilitating the application of successive or sequential extraction conditions, offers the potential for a selective recovery process of both nonpolar and polar fractions from grape marc or pomace, which is the main solid byproduct of the wine industry. Excellent results have recently been obtained by carrying out both the extraction with supercritical co2 from grape marc, recovering surprising amounts of policosanols (about 4 g/kg dm), and sc-co2 extraction with co-solvent for polyphenols (about 2 g gae/100 g dm). It has been recently reported policosanol effectiveness in treating metabolic syndromes such as dyslipidemia, diabetes, hypertension, and obesity.   The superior quality of sc-co2 extracts, surpassing that of other extraction technologies, contributes significantly to their heightened added value. Finally, the raffinate phase of sc-co2 extracted grape marc, exhausted of bioactive compounds via sfe, can still be used in other biorefinery processes.

Industria vitivinícola sostenible: extracción con fluidos supercríticos como tecnología clave para la mejora de la biorrefinería

La extracción de co2 supercrítico (sc-CO2) es una tecnología respetuosa con el medio ambiente que se utiliza para la recuperación de compuestos bioactivos de diversas fuentes naturales y biomasa. Las ventajas de la extracción sc-co2 incluyen selectividad, condiciones operativas relativamente suaves, que minimizan la degradación de compuestos térmicamente sensibles y la ausencia de disolventes orgánicos potencialmente dañinos.   La versatilidad intrínseca del sistema de extracción con fluidos supercríticos (sfe), que permite la aplicación de condiciones de extracción sucesivas o secuenciales, ofrece la posibilidad de realizar una recuperación selectiva de las fracciones tanto apolares como polares del orujo, que son el principal subproducto sólido. De la industria del vino. Recientemente se han obtenido excelentes resultados realizando tanto la extracción con co2 supercrítico del orujo, recuperando cantidades sorprendentes de policosanoles (unos 4 g/kg d.s.), como la extracción sc-co2 con cosolvente de los polifenoles (unos 2 g gae / 100 g de materia seca). Recientemente se ha informado de la eficacia de los policosanoles en el tratamiento de síndromes metabólicos como la dislipidemia, la diabetes, la hipertensión y la obesidad. La calidad superior de los extractos sc-co2, que supera a la de otras tecnologías de extracción, contribuye significativamente a su mayor valor añadido. Finalmente, la fase refinada del orujo, desprovista de compuestos bioactivos extraídos mediante sfe, aún se puede utilizar en otros procesos de biorrefinería.

Industria sostenibile del vino: estrazione con fluidi supercritici quale tecnologia chiave per il potenziamento della bioraffineria

L’estrazione con co2 supercritica (sc-CO2) è una tecnologia rispettosa dell’ambiente utilizzata per il recupero di composti bioattivi da varie fonti naturali e da biomasse. I vantaggi dell’estrazione con sc-co2 includono selettività, condizioni operative relativamente blande, che riducono al minimo la degradazione di composti termicamente sensibili, e l’assenza di solventi organici potenzialmente dannosi.  La versatilità intrinseca del sistema di estrazione con fluidi supercritici (sfe) che permette l’applicazione di condizioni di estrazione successive o sequenziali, offre la possibilità di effettuare un recupero selettivo di frazioni sia apolari che polari dalle vinacce, che sono il principale sottoprodotto solido dell’industria del vino.   Ottimi risultati sono stati recentemente ottenuti effettuando sia l’estrazione con co2 supercritica da vinacce, recuperando quantità sorprendenti di policosanoli (circa 4 g/kg s.s.), sia l’estrazione sc-co2 con co-solvente dei polifenoli (circa 2 g gae/ 100 g ss). E’ stata recentemente riportata l’efficacia dei policosanoli nel trattamento di sindromi metaboliche come dislipidemia, diabete, ipertensione e obesità. La qualità superiore degli estratti sc-co2, che supera quella di altre tecnologie di estrazione, contribuisce in modo determinante al loro maggiore valore aggiunto. Infine, la fase raffinata delle vinacce, esaurita di composti bioattivi estratti via  sfe, può ancora essere utilizzata in altri processi di bioraffineria.

Where the sky is no limit — The transformation of wine marketing through text-to-video generation AI model

The introduction of ai-driven tools in digital content creation represents a significant shift in the landscape of marketing, particularly for industries reliant on rich visual storytelling such as the wine sector. The development of ai models like openai’s sora, runway’s gen-2 or google’s lumiere, which can generate realistic video content from textual descriptions, offers promising new avenues for enhancing brand narrative and consumer engagement. This research explores the potential of text-to-video (t2v) ai models to revolutionize wine marketing by creating dynamic, engaging content that captures the essence of vineyards and their products without the need for traditional video production processes.

French wine sector facing climate change (part. 2) : the implementation of the national strategy

This summary follows this made by Hervé Hannin et al. Entitled “French wine sector facing climate change (part. 1) : a national strategy built on a foresight and participatory approach “. The french wine sector has taken a collective approach to the issue of climate change, and has officially submitted its strategy to the minister of agriculture in 2021. This industry policy is the result of multidisciplinary work carried out through the “laccave” project (metaprogramme accaf, inrae) and its prospective study designed to anticipate climate change in the french wine industry (aigrain p. Et al., 2016). French wine professionals decided to structure a strategy to deal with climate change du in particular to the presentation made at the 2016 OIV congress in Brazil.

Wine tourism in southern Italy: A surge in popularity and economic impact

Wine tourism has transformed from a leisure activity into a crucial part of the tourist experience, significantly contributing to rural tourism’s expansion in italy. It has witnessed a notable surge in popularity in recent years, evolving as a key motivator for travel (antonioli corigliano, 2002; brunori & rossi, 2000; città del vino & censis servizi, 2011; garibaldi, 2018; 2019a; 2020; montanari, 2009; romano & natilli, 2009). The allure of wine tourism, driven by sensory experiences and cultural immersion, continues to attract a diverse group of tourists. The economic impact is substantial, with events and festivals contributing approximately €2.5 billion annually.

Acumulación de materia seca, orientada a valorar la fijación de carbono, en función del aporte de riego y la pluviometría, en Cabernet-Sauvignon a lo largo de 15 años

The vineyard is capable of fixing carbon in its permanent structure from atmospheric carbon dioxide, through the process of gas exchange and the performance of photosynthesis. The photosynthetic capacity of the vineyard depends on the water resources that the plant may have at its disposal, so the amount of dry matter, derived from the processed photosynthates, that it can store will depend on the water regime of the crop, both in the annually renewable organs as in permanent parts.

Biological control of the vineyard: new microbiological findings from CREA-VE

According to the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), 75.866 km2 of the world is dedicated to grape cultivation. About 71.0% of the world’s grape production is destined for winemaking, 27.0% for consumption as fresh fruit and 2.0% as raisin. Grape production is mainly hindered by fungal infections, that can develop both in field and post-harvest.
