The immediate challenge in the fractionation and purification of biofunctional
oligosaccharides, for example enzymatically manufactured prebiotics, is the coupling of …

Abstract β-glucans are soluble fibers found in cereal compounds, including barley, oats etc.,
as an active component. They are used as a dietary fiber to treat cholesterol, diabetes and …

Nanofiltration (NF) of a model sugar solution and a commercial galacto-oligosaccharide
mixture has been studied with a cross-flow filtration unit in an attempt to investigate the …

Fouling in nanofiltration was studied using model substances similar to those in the pulp and
paper mill waters, such as vanillin, humic acid, locust bean gum, and karaya gum. The …

This work presents a study of concentration of apple and pear juice by nanofiltration at low
pressures. The aim was to find a proper membrane and the most adequate process …

Furfural, found in the lignocellulosic prehydrolyzates at high concentration, is a strong
inhibitor of growth and ethanol fermentation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Removal of …

The aim of this study is to develop a membrane-based treatment scheme to remove
colorants from the effluent of a baker's yeast plant. For this purpose microfiltration (MF) …

Two loose nanofiltration membranes (NF‐CA‐50 and NF‐TFC‐50) and one dense
ultrafiltration membrane (UF‐CA‐1) were used to fractionate commercial oligosaccharide …

Abstract Development of efficient unit operations is critical in order to design economically
viable processes for conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into chemicals and fuels. Here …

Four commercial 1812 spiral wound nanofiltration membranes were firstly applied to
examine the separation performance of sugar solutions in total recycle mode of operation …
