The present invention is directed to soy protein products, very low in, or free of, beany flavour notes and useful for the fortification of food and beverage products and prepared without the use of salt in the process. The soy protein products of the present invention are obtained by extracting soy protein source with water to form an aqueous soy protein solution, at least partially separating the aqueous soy protein solution from residual soy protein source, adjusting the pH of the aqueous soy protein solution to a pH of about 1.5 to about 3.6 to solubilize at least a portion of the protein and form an acidified soy protein solution then separating the acidified soy protein solution from the acid insoluble solid material. The acidified soy protein solution may be dried following optional concentration and diafiltration to form a soy protein product, which may be an isolate. The acid insoluble solid material may be washed with acidified water and then dried to form another soy protein product. These products may be dried at the acidic pH at which they were prepared or may be adjusted in pH before drying.

A process to remove transition metals from waste water. The process includes the steps of passing waste water to a first pH resin bed, monitoring the effluent from the first resin bed, and adjusting pH to greater than 4. The effluent is passed to a first stage liquid tank and to a first brackish water membrane to filter out complex metals. Rejected effluent from the first brackish water membrane is passed to a second stage liquid tank and thereafter to a second brackish water membrane. The permeate from the second brackish water membrane is passed back to the first stage liquid tank. The rejected effluent from the second brackish water membrane is heated and evaporated. The evaporated effluent is condensed so that metal crystals are gathered for disposal. The permeate through the first brackish membrane is passed to an EDTA resin bed to sequester metal ions. The pH of the discharge from the second pH resin bed is adjusted to between 7 and 11.

An integrated system and method for conversion of carbon oxides to carbon containing products are disclosed. Pre-purification of a carbon oxide gas by electrodialysis, and subsequent electrochemical reduction of the purified gas with a carbon oxide electrolyzer equipped with a polymer electrolyte membrane yields carbon containing products.

The present disclosure relates, according to some embodiments, to apparatus, systems, and methods for reduction and/or removal of one or more contaminants (e.g., heavy metals, chromium, phosphorous, phosphorous compounds, nitrogen, nitrogen compounds) from a feed composition (e.g., a fluid). Apparatus, systems, and methods, in some embodiments, may be operable to decontaminate a fluid with comparatively little or no contaminant containing waste fluid.

Disclosed is an energy hydrogen water dissolving device that passes a clean water source through a pressurized pump. A part of the water is sent to a hydrogen production equipment and decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen, and the other part of the water is driven to an energy hydrogen water dissolving and storage tank. The oxygen formed by the hydrogen production equipment is discharged to the outside or returned to the clean water source, and the hydrogen formed by the hydrogen production equipment is connected and sent to an input end of the pressurized pump, pressurized and mixed uniformly by the pressurized pump and outputted to the clean water, so that the water liquid entering into the energy hydrogen water dissolving and storage tank becomes high dissolution hydrogen water. The energy hydrogen water dissolving and storage tank contains an energy mineral, a hydrogen molecule mineral and a terminal filter, and the water liquid discharged from the energy hydrogen water dissolving and storage tank is formed into healthy drinking water with tiny water molecules, weak alkaline, high negative potential and high dissolution hydrogen molecules

A method or process is provided for removing selenate from an ion-exchange or an adsorption media regenerant stream. The regenerant stream is processed in a nanofiltration membrane which produces a permeate and a reject stream containing the selenate. A reducing agent, such as iron, is mixed with the reject stream and this gives rise to an oxidation-reduction reaction that reduces the selenate to selenite. Thereafter, the method includes adsorbing the selenate onto an adsorbent, such as hydrous iron oxide. The adsorbent and adsorbed selenite is removed from the reject stream via a solids-liquid separation process.
