Embodiment Construction

[0038] refer to figure 1 and Figure 2a , illustrates by way of example a system 100 arranged to concentrate a substance in a dairy product MP. The system 100 is arranged to concentrate substances in the dairy product MP by using a filtering device 102 arranged in the system 100 . The filtering device 102 includes a dairy product inlet 111 and a return liquid outlet 112 . The filtering device 102 is arranged to filter the dairy product MP into a permeate P and a retentate R. The reflux liquid R contains a certain concentration of the substance. For example, the substance may be lactoferrin.

[0039] As shown, the filter device 102 is elongated and arranged in a direction 702 extending from the dairy MP inlet 111 to the return liquid outlet 112 . This direction 702 may be inclined with respect to the horizontal direction 701 in order to enable easy and efficient drainage of liquids (such as dairy products MP) from the filtering device 102 . The angle 703 between the direc...

Abstract

A method (300) for concentrating a substance in a milk product (MP), the method (300) comprising the steps of: feeding (302) the milk product (MP) from a tank (202) to a filtering device (102), filtering (304) the milk product (MP) into a permeate (P) and a retentate (R), such that the substance is concentrated in the retentate (R), circulating (306) a first part (R1) of the retentate (R) over the filtering device (102), feeding (308) a second part (R2) of the retentate (R) to the tank (202), repeating the circulations to thereby gradually increase a concentration of the substance in the milk product (MP), and stopping (312) the repeating (310) when the concentration of the substance in the milk product (MP) has reached a predetermined value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of dairy product processing. More specifically, the invention relates to the concentration of substances in dairy products by filtration. Background technique [0002] Today, it is common practice to use filtration units to filter dairy products into different by-products. In order to prevent the filter unit from drying out, these units are not drainable. Instead, filter units are filled with water or cleaned when not in production to ensure they are not damaged or otherwise negatively affected. [0003] A disadvantage of current filtration units is that dairy products may remain in the unit after production rather than being recycled. This is especially a disadvantage when the price per weight or volume unit of the produced by-product is high. [0004] For this reason, there is a need for a system capable of recovering dairy products left in the filter unit after production without challenging the durability of t...
