Whey pretreatments before ultrafiltration

Effect of Ultrasonication on Membrane Structure and Flux Recovery for Whey Ultrafiltration

In this study, the effect of ultrasound irradiation on the flux recovery and fouling mitigation for the membranes made of the polysulfone by the phase inversion method were investigated. Two ultrasound irradiation regimes, including inside and outside the module, were chosen for this study. The experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of ultrasound irradiation on the membrane struct...

Investigation of whey protein concentration by ultrafiltration elements designed for water treatment

The suitability of polysulfone ultrafiltration membranes (UFM) designed for commercial water treatment has been investigated for separation of protein (PR) from sweet whey. Ultrafiltration (UF) of whey originated from dairy has been realized by a self-made pilot plant, which has been in service for about one year. The influence of two whey temperatures (9 and 30 °C) on the efficiency of protein...

Study of ultrafiltration of defatted whey protein concentrates (WPC) withdrawn from an industrial plant

Permeate from cheese whey ultrafiltration is a source of milk oligosaccharides.

Previously undescribed oligosaccharides in bovine cheese whey permeate were characterized by a combination of nanoelectrospray Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance (nESI-FTICR) mass spectrometry and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (MALDI-FTICR) mass spectrometry. Oligosaccharide composition was elucidated by collision-induced dissociati...
