  1. 1. Study of the effects of the operating conditions of a decanter centrifuge on a pilot-scale protein recovery setup from cold-pressed rapeseed press cake

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Sergio de La Cruz Padilla; [2023]
    Keywords : By-product; Rapeseed press cake; protein; Food engineering; Agriculture and Food Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : There is significant evidence to suggest that diets that include high levels of meat consumption have negative effects on both the environment and human health. As a result, efforts are being made to identify and characterize more plant-based proteins, such as those found in rapeseed. READ MORE

  3. 2. Protein Recovery from Alkaline Extracts: A Comparative Analysis of Isoelectric Precipitation and Ultrafiltration

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Anjay Sharma; [2023]
    Keywords : Rapeseed cake; Brewers spent grains; Protein recovery; Ultrafiltration; Alkaline extraction; Food engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Proteins are one of three macro-components of a diet. An increasing demand for products that can be a complete protein source exists. The vulnerability of the current food system towards environmental impacts and the inability to keep up with the rising population has shifted the focus on valorising underutilised by-products of the food industry.
