Membrane Based System For Whey Concentration

We are among the reputed organizations, highly engaged in manufacturing and supplying an optimum quality range of Membrane Based System For Whey Concentration to our precious customers from Vadodara , Gujarat , India. It is a complete process scheme to handle and process whey to produce whey protein concentrate (WPC). Whey is a a by-producta of cheese making; approximately ninety percent of the milk volume is generated as whey during cheese manufacture. The whey is rich in whey proteins, which provide a good nutritional source and serve to impart excellent functional properties in various products when used as specially formulated additives. However, whey proteins constitute only ten to twelve percent of the total whey solids and require further purification before their properties can be efficiently exploited.

The process begins with a fines saver to remove cheese fines from sweet whey and sequentially proceeds through tanks, pasteurizer, separator, and ultrafiltration. This process scheme will yield product that ranges from 35% to 65% WPC. A secondary product from the system is the lactose rich (i.e. 70-80%) permeate stream.
