With the growing demand for plant-based products and proteins, manufacturers are turning to crossflow membrane filtration technology to discover new ways to grow financially and expand their companies. This innovative technology allows for the separation of desired molecules, such as protein, from undesired molecules without altering the structure of the macromolecules. Unlike traditional methods like acid-leaching or thermal treatments, membrane filtration preserves the functional and nutritional properties of proteins, achieving a protein retention rate of up to 97%.
Axium Process has been at the forefront of this technology, helping companies harness its potential for success. As Projects & Business Development Director, Jamie George explains, while the technology itself is not new, Axium Process has been applying it in innovative ways for over 20 years. By optimizing pea protein isolate for plant-based burgers or extracting soy protein for shakes, companies can benefit from membrane filtration’s cost-effective and efficient production capabilities within a small footprint.
Embracing automated membrane filtration allows companies to focus on product development and meeting market demands while maintaining confidence in their production line’s ability to handle the task at hand. With Axium Process’s expertise in the field, manufacturers can navigate the complexities of membrane filtration and unlock its potential for financial growth and company expansion.
