Ultrafiltration is a critical membrane separation process in the dairy industry used to concentrate proteins while removing lactose and minerals. This calculator assists engineers in determining mass balance outcomes and verifying that process parameters remain within safe operating limits to prevent membrane fouling and gel-polarisation.
