ABSTRACT

Membrane filtration can provide a significant role in the management of waste streams from food manufacturing operations. The pressure-driven membrane technology includes microfiltration (MF), ultrafiltration (UF), nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO). The main applications of membrane technology in dairy industry includes extending the shelf life of milk without exposure to heat treatment, pre-concentration of milk prior to manufacturing of cheese, increase the yield and quality of cheese and control the whey volume, by concentrating the cheese milk. Moreover, the production of valuable products from milk constituents signifies the most potential applications of membrane technology in dairy sector.
