Whey Valorization and treatment

Solutions for whey valorization and treatment through tangential flow filtration. Efficient recovery of proteins, minerals, and process water.

Whey valorization and treatment transform a complex by-product into a valuable and sustainable resource for the food industry.

We develop membrane filtration and separation systems that enable the recovery of proteins, mineral salts, and process water, optimizing resources and reducing environmental impact.

Our approach integrates complete whey management solutions—from pretreatment to obtaining functional concentrates—allowing its use in high-value-added products such as dairy ingredients, protein drinks, or fermentation bases.

We also collaborate with specialists in complementary technologies such as electrodialysis, ion exchange columns, evaporators, and spray dryers, offering a full range of solutions for whey valorization.

Technologies applied to whey valorization and treatment

  • Membrane filtration: microfiltration (MF), ultrafiltration (UF), nanofiltration (NF), and reverse osmosis (RO)

  • Concentration and fractionation processes: controlled recovery of proteins and lactose

  • Protein microparticulation: improves functionality and texture for food applications

Industrial Benefits

  • Cost and waste reduction: full valorization of whey and its by-products

  • New revenue streams: production of protein concentrates, permeates, and reusable water

  • Regulatory and environmental compliance: reduced organic load and wastewater discharge

  • Consistent quality and yield: automated processes with purity and flow control

  • Sustainability: turning waste into valuable resources

Application Sectors

  • Dairy and cheese industry: protein recovery and fractionation of sweet or acid whey

  • Functional foods and protein beverages: whey as a base for new formulations

  • Biotechnology: use of permeates as a nutrient medium in fermentation processes

  • Industrial water and sustainability: recovery of process water for reuse
