Concentration of skim milk by reverse osmosis: characterization and flow decline modelling

Abstract: In this paper the physicochemical characteristics and the flow decline occurring during the reverse osmosis of skim milk, were analysed. The flow decline was evaluated using the resistances in series, the blocked pore models and a second conjugated model that combined the blocked pores with the development of a filter cake. The main resistance found was the concentration by polarization, which was mainly influenced by the complete blocking of the pores. The conjugated model was capable of predicting the flow d… Show more

“…This suggested that the increased pressure was responsible for the increase in turbulent flow, thereby reducing fouling phenomena. The complete blocking mechanism has also observed in many concentration processes by RO, such as waste fresh tea leaf extract (Lai et al, 2021) and skim milk (Arend, Castoldi, Rezzadori, Soares, & Brião, 2019).…”

“…We know that RO membrane retains almost all type of molecules except water mainly due to its average pore size of 0.0005 microns. Arend et al (2019), performed the concentration of pasteurized skim milk using polyamide RO membrane with a spiral configuration and filtration area of 5.7 m 2 . Temperature of 20±5°C and 20 bar pressure was maintained in the process.…”

“…The characterization of membrane fouling is necessary to understand the mechanism that acts during the UF process and, later, choose the most efficient cleaning procedure 22,23 . Hermia's model adapted to cross‐flow filtration 24 has been used to undestand pore‐blocking behaviors considering the shear stress on the membrane surface 25–27 . Indeed, pore‐blocking is a critical factor in UF that causes a severe decline in the permeate flux under constant pressure conditions 25 .…”

[25][26][27] Indeed, pore-blocking is a critical factor in UF that causes a severe decline in the permeate flux under constant pressure conditions. 25 Pore-blocking followed by cake filtration was reported as a common important fouling mechanism in the UF protein separation process.…”
