So far, olive tree leaves have not been used economically. 12 of the 15 million tons of olives harvested annually come from Europe. In Europe, approximately 1 million tonnes of olive leaves and 30 million tonnes of olive residues are produced annually. Enough for the tanning of approximately 600 million square meters of leather, which would be about 40% of world production. So far, these residues have been burned.
