Fine particles that are contained in ultrapure water supplied to a point of use is further reduced.

Ultrapure water production system has ultrapure water supply line that is connected to point of uses, wherein ultrapure water flows through ultrapure water supply line; and first ion exchange apparatus, membrane filtration apparatus and second ion exchange apparatus that are arranged in series on ultrapure water supply line. Membrane filtration apparatus is arranged between first ion exchange apparatus and second ion exchange apparatus. At least a part of the ultrapure water that flows out from membrane filtration apparatus is treated by second ion exchange apparatus before the at least a part of the ultrapure water is supplied to point of uses.

An ion exchange chromatography column contains an ion exchange stationary phase that includes a charged substrate, a plurality of first particles, and a plurality of second particles. The plurality of first particles each include first ion exchange groups and the first particles are ionically bound to the charged substrate. The plurality of second particles each include second ion exchange groups and the second particles are ionically bound to the charged substrate. The first particles having a first ion exchange group density, and the second particles having a second ion exchange group density. The first ion exchange group density is greater than the second ion exchange group density. The ion exchange chromatography column has a number of zones connected in series where each zone can have a varying level of first ion exchange groups and second ion exchange group from the inlet zone to the outlet zone.

The present disclosure relates, in some embodiments, to a method including demineralizing a protein liquor (i.e., a liquid portion of a lysed microcrop (e.g., Lemna) that has been separated to generate the liquid portion and a solid portion and having a composition including a soluble microcrop protein and a Vitamin B12) to generate a demineralized protein liquor. According to some embodiments, demineralizing the protein liquor may include diafiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, reverse osmosis filtration, electrodialysis, and/or passing the protein liquor through an ion exchange resin (e.g., an anion exchange resin. a trialkyl ammonium salt having three methyl groups). In some embodiments, a method may further include concentrating a demineralized protein liquor to generate at least one of a milk base and an electrolyte drink.
