Compared to RO, ED technology can concentrate dissolved solids to salinity up to 200 g/l
Whey is a by-product of cheese production. It has a high mineral content of 8-10 % in TDS which results in low sensoric properties and overall low value of whey. Demineralization by electrodialysis turns the low-value whey into a sweet substance ready for internal reuse or up to pharmaceutical quality for use in infant nutrition.
Avoid precipitation of tartrate salts into the final product. Electrodialysis technology removes part of tartrates in energy efficient way without addition of chemicals in very short time. Alcohol, sugars content and taste don't change.
Chemicals-free pH adjustment for fruit juices, wines and ciders improves organoleptic properties using electrodialysis bipolar membrane (EDBM) technology with RALEX® membranes. Especially suitable for sour beverages, where high acidity causes unpleasant feelings to the consumer. Applicable for wide range of natural juices.
Electrodialysis with bipolar membrane technology decreases pH of apple juice and then increases it back to the previous level. This temporary change stabilizes the apple juice without adding ascorbic acid.
Removal of acids and salts from solutions of monosaccharides, disaccharides and oligosaccharides by RALEX® electrodialysis.
Lactulose syrup is a feed solution of lactulose after isomerisation by chemical catalysers. There is a high mineral content due to the agents of catalysers. Electrodialysis allows their removal to receive the final product, which is then used in the food industry or pharmaceutical applications.
Demineralization of substances with probiotic and dietary effect as Galactooligosaccharides - GOS, Fructooligosaccharides – FOS, Chitooligosaccharides - COS; Xylooligosaccharides - XOS, Isomaltooligosaccharides - IMO, Soybean oligosaccharides - SOS.
Organic acids are usually produced using fermentation. Heterogenous EDBM RALEX® technology provides viable alternative to the fermentation. Alongside the production the feed is acidified and salts are removed. Up to 95% conversion is achievable with EDBM only, final 5 % are usually polished using IEX.
Separation of monovalent and bivalent ions from valuable non-charged organic substances – proteins, amino-acids, pharmaceutic preparations (e.g. butyrobetaine, thymidine, L-carnitine, xylose).
Saccharides, amino acids and specialties from the range of food processing and pharmaceutic preparations have high added value. We are able to separate unwanted substances, primarily salts, and return valuable substances from the useless mixture into the production process.
MEGA has developed an unique technology consisting of effective pretreatment and highly efficient electrodialysis to gain mixture of water and clean glycols while retaining low energy and chemicals consumption. Technology can be applied for car cooling antifreeze and airport de-icing fluids, HVAC, as well as for glycols used for dehydratation of natural gas extraction.
Crude glycerine as the by-product of biodiesel production contains besides glycerine, water and salts different substances and impurities. To gain the most valuable product with high purity for food, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, personal care and tobacco industry, it´s required to apply a series of purificatin steps. MEGA offers low energy electrodialysis process for crude glycerine demineralization.
Gain chemicals for reuse in process and lower the amount of waste.
