摘要:
Methods of preparing granular compositions containing lecithin, preferably as a major or sole ingredient, are described. Granular lecithin-containing compositions are also described and can be prepared by the disclosed methods.
摘要:
Juice is concentrated by passing a feed juice over a reverse osmosis membrane to form a retentate. The retentate is recirculated over the membrane until the feed juice and the retentate reach from between 20° Brix to about 25° Brix to form a juice concentrate.
摘要:
Disclosed is a process for purifying a crude glycerol composition. The process comprises the steps of: (a) providing a crude glycerol composition; (b) filtering the crude glycerol composition though two or more nanofiltration or reverse osmosis filters that are connected in series to form a purified glycerol composition. At least one of the filters comprises filter media having a contact angle between about 44 and about 56 degrees.
摘要:
A modified oilseed material formed from oilseed-based material is described. The modified oilseed material can be utilized in a variety of nutritional applications, including the preparation of protein supplemented food products such as beverages, processed meats, frozen desserts, confectionery products, dairy-type products, and cereal grain products. The modified oilseed material typically includes at least 85 wt.% protein (dry solids basis), at least about 40 wt.% of the protein in the modified oilseed material has an apparent molecular weight of at least 300 kDa, and/or the modified oilseed material has a MW50 of at least about 200 kDa.
摘要:
An apparatus and methods for softening water is disclosed. In particular, an apparatus and method for softening water without the addition of ions the wastewater stream is disclosed. The apparatus generally includes at least one nanofiltration filter element configured and arranged to receive an input flow of hard water, discharge an output flow of permeate water comprising a portion of the input flow, and discharge an output flow of non-permeate water comprising a portion of the input flow. The nanofiltration filter element typically has an average pore size that permits the passage of water and monovalent ions but substantially prevents the passage of divalent ions.

摘要:
A system and method of degumming a plant derived oil comprising mixing a feed stream under ultrahigh shear conditions to provide a mixed stream, passing the mixed stream through a retention tank, and separating the mixed stream into an aqueous stream and an oil stream is disclosed. The feed stream comprises water, optional added acid(s), and triglyceride oil, such as a plant derived oil, having a relatively high phosphorous content and may also include metal impurities such as calcium, magnesium and/or iron ions. The process can provide a triglyceride oil stream with a phosphorous content of no more than about 10 to 20 ppm and no more than about 0.5 wt.% free fatty acids. In many instances, the triglyceride oil stream has phosphorous content which is no more than about 3% of the phosphorous content of the feed stream. The process also provides a wet gum stream, which may have an AI of 75 or higher.
摘要:
A system may be used to remove contaminants such as blood proteins or manure from a wastewater stream. The system may include prefiltering the wastewater stream followed by passing the wastewater stream through a reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, or ultrafiltration membrane. The permeate may be further sanitized. The water output from such a system may meet drinking water standards or may be used for secondary uses such as dust prevention and the like.
