Functional Molecules Obtained by Membrane Technology
摘要
Meat by-products and coproducts, including slaughtered wastes, represent an actual challenge for the food processing industry due to their prejudicial impact on the environment. Membrane technologies can be helpful for the valorization of these streams according to the principles of a sustainable circular economy. This chapter described selected experimental models that have been used to valorize meat by-products, like blood, and wastewater through the application of membrane-based processes. The aim of this study is to provide protocols outlining important factors related to sample handling, membrane selection, operation process, and membrane performance.
