Title: The ultrafiltration of whey
IPC: A23C9/142
Filed: 1979-03-21
Abstract: A process is described wherein the permeate flux in the ultrafiltration of whey is increased by lowering the pH of the feed, in particular the pH may be lowered by decationisation. The pH is preferably lowered so as to be in the pH range 1 to 1.5. The process has particular application in the production of demineralised acid casein whey concentrate and demineralised cheese whey concentrate. A preferred apparatus for performing the invention consists in a decationisation stage (1) followed by ultrafiltration stages (2, 3). The permeate is passed through a deanionisation stage (6) and the concentrate is passed through a deanionisation stage (4) followed by a final ultrafiltration stage (5). It is a further aspect of the process that the concentrations of the whey feed to any demineralisation stage or deanionisation stage is not allowed to substantially exceed 10.5% total solids (ash content ignored). <IMAGE>
