Kovalus shares new whitepaper on water efficiency for dairy plants

Kovalus Separation Solutions has released a new whitepaper titled “Water Conservation and Efficiency Opportunities in Dairy Membrane Operations.” The publication provides practical, proven techniques for reducing water consumption, reclaiming valuable resources and making dairy membrane operations more efficient – especially in UF, RO, NF and MF setups.

Using hands-on experience in membrane and process system design, the whitepaper outlines practical, data-backed methods for optimising water efficiency in dairy operations.

• Rinse recovery & valving strategies: how to reduce water using conductivity – or turbidity-based controls.
• Low vs high pressure systems: understand the structural water usage differences between UF/MF and RO/NF systems.
• Chemical recovery with SelRO: techniques for reclaiming caustic and acid solutions even at extreme pH and temperature levels.
• Seal water reuse: how small upgrades (tanks, sensors) can save thousands of litres/gallons annually.
• DF water optimisation: Smart distribution without jeopardising product quality.
