Future perspective (examples)

11

Closing the water loop • Milk = 86.6% water

• Theoretically no water needed

• Microbiology

• Storage

• Volatile organic components

• Reverse Osmosis tight membranes

• Membrane cascading

Future perspective (examples)

12

Chemical free separation • Acid/Caustic

• Casein precipitation

• Whey demineralization

• Cleaning in Place (CIP)

• Solutions should be found in

• Membrane systems

• Reuse of chemicals

• Smart process integration

Conclusions

13

Sustainable future in process development:

• Maximum raw material usage

• Minimum resources • Energy

• Chemicals

• Economics
