چکیده
7he T economics i off introducing ultrafiltration (UF) ) into the Ontario i dairy industry is analyzed. . First, t, a partial budget is developed to determine feasibility off UF on the farm. . The budget indicates that the great majority off Ontario dairy farms are not large enough to capture the economies off size inherent in the new technology. l y. Second, , a location-allocation ll ti model is used to determine thefeasibility, number capand location off UF collection centers in Ontario. i . The model indicates that the UF centers would ture the economies ies offsize and the centers would benefit the dairy industry as a whole. l . However, r, processors M offsoft products and consumers offhard products could be worse off f because offmarket changes caused by the UF centers. s. o j

متن کاملComparative Study of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and Statistical Methods for Predicting the Performance of Ultrafiltration Process in the Milk Industry
Milk ultrafiltration is a membrane process, which is highly complex innature. The cost effectiveness of the process depends heavily on the flux permeate and the total hydraulic resistance of the membrane. In this work, a comparative study for the prediction of the performance of milk ultrafiltration with ANN and statistical method has been carried out. The result reveals that both methods c...
