A method for controlling treatment of an industrial water system is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of providing an apparatus for controlling delivery of at least one treatment chemical, the apparatus comprising at least one sensor and an electronic input/output device carrying out a protocol; measuring a parameter of the industrial water system using the at least one sensor; relaying the measured parameter to the electronic device; adjusting the protocol based on the measured parameter; delivering a concentrated treatment chemical into a stream of the industrial water system according to the adjusted protocol, the concentrated treatment chemical comprising an active ingredient, the active ingredient traced as necessary, the active ingredient having a concentration; repeating the measuring, the adjusting, and the delivering; and optionally repeating the steps for n-number of parameters, n-number of active ingredients, and/or n-number of concentrated treatment chemicals.

A feedstock processing system extracts a product from a solid using a CTSE system comprising a plurality of continuous stirred tank extraction stages arranged in fluid communication with each other in series such that effluent from one stage flows to a next stage in the series. One of the stages has an inlet to allow a measured amount of liquid solvent and the solid to be introduced to the continuous stirred tank extraction stage. The stage mixes the solid with the introduced solvent to form a homogeneous slurry to enable the product associated with the solid to be extracted with the solvent. A solid-liquid separator is arranged in fluid communication with the continuous stirred tank extraction stages, and receives an effluent from one of the stages and separates the liquid solvent containing the product from the solid to form a product-containing liquid and a product-depleted solid.

The present invention relates to a method for separating biomass from a solution comprising bi-omass and at least one aroma compound. comprising providing the solution comprising bio-mass and aroma compounds. lowering the pH value of the solution below 7 by adding at least one acid to the solution comprising biomass and the at least one aroma compound. adding an adsorbing agent to the solution comprising biomass and aroma compounds. and carrying out first membrane filtration so as to separate the biomass from the solution comprising the at least one aroma compound.

A pervaporation membrane formed on a porous support containing a composition encompassing a polysiloxane, a crosslinker and a catalyst are disclosed and claimed. Also disclosed are the fabrication of membranes which exhibit unique separation properties, and their use in the separation of organic volatiles from biomass and/or organic waste, including butanol, ethanol, and the like.

The present application relates to the technical field of further processing of dairy products, and in particular to a preparation method of milk oligosaccharides, and milk oligosaccharide powder and food prepared thereby. The preparation method comprises the steps of: performing ultrafiltration of whey liquid for at least three times, subjecting the ultrafiltration permeate to nanofiltration concentration for several times, then subjecting the nanofiltration retentate to chromatographic separation and purification, collecting chromatographic collection liquid containing sialyllactose while removing the fraction containing lactose, subjecting the collection to desalination and drying to obtain oligosaccharide powder. The milk oligosaccharides prepared by the present method and the food product containing the same comprise basically bovine milk oligosaccharides, which are light yellow or white in color, light in flavor, uniform in size, and have good thermal stability and solubility. The milk oligosaccharides mainly comprise 3′-sialyllactose and 6′-sialyllactose.
