Maintaining a balance between creating high quality dairy ingredients while maintaining a low production cost can be challenging. Our line of membrane products utilize a blister resistant design and crossflow filtration technology to improve energy efficiency, reduce operating costs, increase productivity and decrease contamination risk. Our membranes are constructed to tolerate harsh cleaning requirements extending their operating life and optimizing every step of dairy membrane processing.
Whey
If you are concentrating, clarifying, or demineralizing whey protein, our protein-separation processes can help you reduce operating expenses and boost yield. We also offer complete evaporation, crystallization, spray drying systems, and powder handling & packaging systems
• Whey Defatting
• Whole Whey Concentration
• Whey Protein Concentrates / Isolates, Spray Drying
• Whey Demineralization

Milk and Cheesemaking
Our filtration and separation solutions for milk production and cheese production are exceptional at concentrating proteins for your milk products. In addition to membrane filtration, we offer complete evaporation, crystallization, spray drying systems, powder handling & packaging solutions, and a variety of cheese making equipment and solutions.
Ideal for:
• Casein Concentration
• Cheese Milk Standardization
• Milk Protein Concentration
Lactose and Permeate
Our RO/NF membranes provide excellent performance in concentrating and demineralizing lactose streams. We offer complete evaporation, crystallization, spray drying systems, and powder handling & packaging solutions.
Water & Wastewater
Our filtration and separation solutions for dairy processing wastewater treatment produce water for recovery and recycle back to the plant, or for direct discharge to drain. Depending on the technology selected, contaminants are either reduced sufficiently for discharge or significantly concentrated to substantially reduce hauling costs. Wastewaters from dairies are considered a challenge to treat, often containing high levels of suspended solids, FOG, BOD, and COD.
Caustic Recovery
Nanofiltration Membrane Systems offer a cost effective, environmentally friendly way to recover the expensive caustic solutions used to clean process equipment.
Balancing the demands to cost-effectively produce high-quality food that is safe and nutritious can be a challenge. That’s why we offer numerous food-processing solutions to help reduce costs while increasing process efficiency, yield, and quality. Our systems are made to optimize water usage, remove contaminants, recover valued materials, purify process streams, and treat outgoing effluent to comply with environmental standards.
Protein
If you are concentrating, purifying or clarifying plant or animal-based proteins, our protein-separation processes can help you reduce operating expenses and boost yield.
Ideal for:
• Plant-Based Proteins
• Gelatin
• Egg or Egg Albumin
• Animal Blood Products
Sugar and Starch
Our filtration and separation solutions for crop-based sugar, sweetener and starch processing can separate sugars from fibrous and proteinaceous impurities and purify and concentrate them with exceptional results.
Ideal for:
• Dextrose solution
• Sucrose solution
• Starch derivative
• Sugar derivative
Fermentation
Many of today’s food, beverage and nutraceutical products are manufactured using fermentation processes. One of the key steps in the production cycle is clarification and membranes provide the optimum method of purification for downstream processing.
Ideal for:
• Amino acids
• Enzymes
