Whey powder - the source of protein

Nowadays, whey and its derivatives such as whey protein concentrate (WPC) and whey protein isolate (WPI) are highly valued by-products of dairy (curd, Greek yogurt, casein) and cheese manufacturing industries. They have a high potential for their nutritional value and various options for further processing/reuse, in terms mainly of their content of protein, eventually lactose.

Each type of whey has its own characteristics and that´s why it has to be demineralized and reused depending on its specific composition.
