Nanofiltration for dextrose recovery from crystallization mother liquors: A feasibility study

摘要

A wide experimentation was carried out to test performances of industrial NF modules for dextrose (DX) recovery from crystallization mother liquors, coming from dextrose manufacturing by saccharification of starch hydrolizates. Real solutions were processed containing total Dry Substance (DS) in the range from 17 to 43 wt% and DX content close to 80-83%; impurities being mainly maltose and other sugars with higher degree of polymerization.
