Product Overview

The WPC80 Concentrated Whey Protein Powder Production Line Membrane Filtration Concentration Equipment is a high-precision, energy-efficient integrated solution independently developed by Zhengzhou Chlory Technology Co., Ltd.—a National High-tech Enterprise with over 20 years of membrane separation and food/biopharmaceutical processing expertise. Tailored for protein standardization in food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and feed industries, this equipment addresses the core pain points of traditional protein processing: fluctuating protein content across raw material batches, loss of protein activity due to high-temperature treatment, poor solubility of finished products, and difficulty in precise content control.

Integrating advanced ultrafiltration (UF) membrane technology, high-speed centrifugation, and low-temperature concentration systems, the equipment covers the entire process chain from raw material pretreatment, protein enrichment, impurity removal, desalination to concentration and standardization. It realizes molecular-level physical separation, effectively retaining target proteins while removing small-molecule impurities such as water, salts, and sugars. The finished product achieves precise protein content control (customizable to target standards) with high solubility, stable functionality, and retained biological activity. Fully compliant with GMP, FDA, and relevant national standards, the equipment is widely applicable to small-batch R&D, pilot production, and large-scale industrial production of protein products such as whey protein, soy protein, and animal-derived proteins.

The system adopts a "pre-treatment + multi-stage membrane separation + concentration" integrated process, realizing precise separation and purification based on molecular weight differences between target products and impurities:

Core Advantages

1. Precise Protein Standardization & Consistent Quality

Adopts ultrafiltration membranes with a molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) of 10–50 kDa, precisely intercepting protein molecules while allowing small-molecule impurities to pass through. The protein content can be accurately adjusted to the preset standard (e.g., 80% for whey protein isolate, 40–50% for feed protein), ensuring consistent product quality across batches.

2. High Retention of Protein Activity & Functionality

Operates at low temperatures (25–35℃) throughout the process, avoiding thermal denaturation of proteins. The activity retention rate of functional proteins (e.g., enzymes, active peptides) reaches ≥95%, and key functional properties such as solubility, emulsibility, and gelation are fully preserved, meeting the requirements of high-end product production.

3. Efficient Impurity Removal & High Product Purity

Combines high-speed centrifugation and multi-stage ultrafiltration for synergistic purification. Effectively removes non-protein impurities such as fats, starches, colloids, and mineral salts with an impurity removal rate of ≥99%. The finished protein product has high purity, clear appearance, and no secondary precipitation during storage.

4. Energy-Saving & Environmental Protection

Membrane separation technology consumes only 30–40% of the energy of traditional thermal concentration processes, significantly reducing production costs. The pure physical separation process requires no chemical additives, avoiding chemical residues and secondary pollution, in line with clean production requirements.

5. Strong Adaptability & Intelligent Operation

Customizes membrane configurations and process parameters for different protein types:
Dairy proteins (whey protein, casein): Optimized ultrafiltration flux to balance concentration efficiency and protein retention.
Plant proteins (soy protein, pea protein): Enhanced anti-fouling design to address high-viscosity raw materials.
Animal-derived proteins (blood protein, gelatin): Low-temperature process to protect heat-sensitive active components. 
Equipped with a PLC automatic control system, real-time monitoring of key parameters such as filtration pressure, concentration, and protein content. Supports automatic adjustment and fault alarm, minimizing manual intervention and ensuring stable operation.
