| Summary: | At this point in history, mankind faces a daunting challenge: how are we to produce high-grade foods without
damage to the environment? The only possible rational solution lies in the efficient use of natural raw materials.
However, the practical side of the matter cannot be resolved without innovative food equipment designed on the basis
of the latest scientific achievements. The current research features the theory and practice of curd whey and skimmed
milk ultrafiltration. It focuses on the main operating parameters of the equipment involved and the maximum
permissible value of the milk solids content. The experiment included whey, obtained as a byproduct of cottage cheese
processing, and skimmed milk, obtained by whole milk separation. The membrane method in the processing of
secondary dairy raw materials allows for an environmentally-friendly waste-free production. It is a promising trend in
the modern food industry: it creates opportunities for a large range of novel dairy products, beverages, and animal feed,
as well as for other sustainable technologies. The paper describes how the volume of permeate flux mass transfer and
the selectivity of polysulfonamide ultrafiltration membranes (PSA-20 and PSA-50) depend on the volume of operating
load and circulation rate during whey and skimmed milk separation. The authors analyzed the mass transfer and the
hydrodynamics in the channel of a roll type baromembrane, including the gel formation process. They established the
influence of the milk solids weight ratio in the liquid polydisperse system on the permeate flux volume and the
selectivity of the polysulfonamide ultrafiltration membrane (PSA-50). |
