Abstract

Whey is a great ecological problem for the dairy industry due to high biological demand of oxygen needed for its utilization. In its initial form as a result of small concentration of its constituents whey has no value, but whey components can be applied as food supplements, in feeds as well as an industrial raw material for other sectors. Whey constituents can be concentrated and fractionated by membrane technology. As a result wastes are transformed in a valuable product for market.
