Abstract
Harmful compounds such as biogenic amines, naturally appearing toxic compounds (e.g. cyanogenic glucosides, oxalates, allergens), heavy metal and herbicide residues are typical cases of harmful compounds given that could either harm human health follwoing a long term exposure or lead to acute cases of food poisoning. The present communication is discussing the possibilities of deploying advanced and sustainable separation processes for selective removal of contaminants from the food chain with particular emphasis on industrial chromatography.
