Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are destroyed by oxidation in supercritical conditions. PFAS in water is concentrated in a reverse osmosis step and salt from the resulting solution is removed in supercritical conditions prior to destruction of PFAS in supercritical conditions.

The present invention relates to a process for the concentration of a water-soluble organic peroxide, preferably an alkyl hydroperoxide, by reverse osmosis as well as to a process for the separation of a water-soluble organic peroxide and of a water-insoluble compound.

The present invention discloses a microencapsulation method for improving stability of anthocyanin, a product therefrom and use thereof. A preparation method of anthocyanin microcapsules includes: (1) taking sodium alginate as a wall material, adding sodium alginate and calcium carbonate into water, and swelling for 1-2 h to obtain a wall material gel system; (2) taking anthocyanin prepared by a special process as a core material, and fully and uniformly mixing the wall material gel system with an anthocyanin solution to obtain a water phase; (3) mixing Span80 and vegetable oil to obtain an oil phase, mixing the water phase with the oil phase, and magnetically stirring for emulsifying to obtain a W/O emulsion; and (4) adjusting the pH of the W/O emulsion to be acidic, mixing the W/O emulsion with a salt buffer solution, standing for 1-2 h, and then separating the oil phase and the water phase.

This disclosure describes methods to separate solids from liquids in a production facility. A process separates components in the process stream by applying non-condensable media to create density differences and then using a mechanical device to separate the solids from the liquids based on the density difference. The process produces the liquids and solids, which may be further processed to create valuable animal feed products.

A method for preparing a Luo Han Guo sweetening composition from Siraitia grosvenorii and a use thereof. The method for extracting the sweetening composition from Siraitia grosvenorii preferably includes the followings: accelerating ripening of immature Siraitia grosvenorii, and performing juicing, extraction with pure water, removal of impurities, concentration and purification to obtain the sweetening composition. Further, the present application relates to a compound sweetener containing the sweetening composition, which can be widely used in foodstuffs, beverages, healthcare products, and daily chemicals. The contents of mogroside III, mogroside IIe, and the like in the Luo Han Guo sweetening composition are controlled so as to improve the flavor thereof, and a production process for the sweetening composition uses only pure water, without use of organic solvents such as ethanol, to ensure a greener and healthier production process.

The disclosure provides a method for extracting antibacterial peptides and albumin from pea whey wastewater, which includes following steps: in extracting the albumin, centrifuging with the pea whey wastewater generated during pea protein processing as raw material; controlling temperature and exchanging heat to adjust temperature of the raw material; sequentially performing a microfiltrating, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration and secondary nanofiltration to obtain an albumin slurry; performing a multi-effect concentration on the albumin slurry; adding an alkaline substances to adjust pH; sterilizing and drying to finally obtain the albumin, which realizes a targeted extraction of the albumin with small molecular weight in the pea whey wastewater and avoids resource waste. The albumin with small molecular weight and the antibacterial peptides in the pea whey water are effectively recycled, thus avoiding environmental pollution caused by improper treatment of the pea whey water and realizing resource reuse.
