Upgrade your whey and permeate to Infant Formula quality (D90), maximizing the selling price of your powdered ingredients.
Upgrade whey and permeate to infant‑formula quality (D90), maximizing the commercial value of your powdered ingredients
The Electrodialysis Demineralization System is an advanced electrochemical separation solution designed for the selective removal of mineral salts and organic acids from dairy whey and permeates.
The system operates using ion‑exchange membranes under a controlled electric field, enabling precise adjustment of the demineralization degree from D40 up to D90. This flexibility allows producers to tailor the mineral profile of the product according to final application requirements, ranging from standard food ingredients to infant‑formula‑grade whey.
By selectively extracting salts while preserving lactose and functional whey components, the process delivers a high‑purity, low‑ash product with neutral flavor and excellent nutritional properties. This makes the demineralized whey suitable for infant nutrition, clinical dietetics, specialized dairy formulations, and high‑value powders.
The Electrodialysis Demineralization System transforms whey and permeate into premium ingredients, significantly increasing final selling price while expanding access to regulated and high‑margin markets.
Main Features and Advantages
Adjustable Demineralization D40–D90: Full flexibility to produce from standard ingredients (D40/D50) to high-margin infant formula bases (D70/D90) with the same equipment, by modulating the electric field.
Acid Whey Deacidification: Selective removal of organic acids and lactates enabling processing of acid cheese or yogurt whey, improving its flavor profile and facilitating spray drying.
Infant Formula Quality (D90): Access to infant nutrition and clinical markets without protein denaturation from heat treatment — the electrochemical process preserves whey functional properties.
Lower Operating Cost than Ion Exchange: Continuous process without chemical resin regeneration, reducing water, salt and reagent consumption with lower residual effluent generation.
