Eggshell membranes with high collagen and hyaluronic acid content are separated from the eggshell wastes by means of a foam separation method. During the foam separation, the eggshell membranes are enriched with the extract obtained from olive leaf and olive mill wastewater, which include phenolic compounds having antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, to obtain an antimicrobial and antioxidant compound that can be used in natural supplementary food products or cosmetic products.
