1. Dairy industry

The dairy industry is at the origin of many developments in membrane separation technologies in the food industry (see Membrane separations in the food industry [F 3 250] ). Indeed, in the early 1970s, based on processes used in medicine to treat kidney infections, researchers came up with the idea of using membrane techniques to concentrate the milk used in cheese-making. Today, crossflow filtration operations are integrated throughout the technological chain for the treatment and processing of milk and whey, the co-product of cheese processing: milk reception, cheese processing, whey...
