  Development of a membrane filtration application relies on a number of a process and product optimizations which are necessary steps incorporated during the feasibility and scale-up studies. From considerations of the suitable membrane configuration and chemistry to adequate pretreatments, to understanding of the product characteristics and down to the selection of proper mechanical and physicochemical parameters, each of these plays an important role in improving the efficiency of the process and enhancing product quality. Our focus, through this presentation, is to highlight novel and important design and developments that improve the performance of membrane separation processes across a diverse spectrum of food and dairy applications.

  June 11, 2024 02:30 pm CDTImproved Nanofiltration Membrane Chemistry to Reduce Replacement Rates in Dairy

  Separation and demineralization of whey protein and lactose requires a nanofiltration membrane that has an appropriate molecular weight cutoff to reject organic molecules yet is open enough to allow significant transport of monovalent salts. Today, …

  Separation and demineralization of whey protein and lactose requires a nanofiltration membrane that has an appropriate molecular weight cutoff to reject organic molecules yet is open enough to allow significant transport of monovalent salts. Today, fouling stands out as a primary challenge for nanofiltration membranes in dairy processes. The new generation of nanofiltration elements, designed with improved membrane chemistry, help endure the stress caused by the demanding conditions of daily cleaning.

  In our presentation, we aim to focus on specific areas within various dairy processes where opportunities exist to mitigate and reduce consumption of key resources. We will delve into membrane technologies that can be effectively employed for materials re-use, documentation of water reduction strategies, and even potential marketability of these strategies. Additionally, we will explore sustainable solutions for managing spent or surplus materials that cannot feasibly be recovered or reconditioned by membrane processes, with an eye toward minimizing environmental impact. Our presentation will thoroughly examine the delicate balance between economic considerations and environmental sustainability, both of which are topics of paramount importance to the dairy industry.
