Pruzhansky dairy plant will launch a whey processing line with a volume of up to 500 tons
General supplier of all equipment is Slovak LLC "Vzduhotorg", supplier of electrodialysis equipment is Czech JSC "MEGA". The amount of investment in the project was not disclosed, reports The DairyNews.
"The company "MEGA" set electrodialysis equipment for the new complex lines for processing of whey. It processes and desalts whey after nanofiltration to the design level of 70%. If the plant has such a need, the level of demineralization can be increased to 90%", said Tatyana Dymar, Director of the representative office of JSC "MEGA" in the Republic of Belarus.
Chief engineer of Pruzhany dairy plant Leonid Kachina in an interview with the correspondent of The DairyNews stressed that now the plant does not plan to reach such a high level of demineralization. To date, contracts with the plant have been concluded for simple whey, the equipment for D70 is being tested.
"In the coming months, the plant will calculate the necessary indicators, including the cost of the finished product, actual values, qualitative and quantitative indicators; hold negotiations with possible customers and start working. At the moment, we are fulfilling our already contracted obligations, and it is too early to say where the D70 will go. It can be almost any region of the world", said Leonid Kachina.
It has to be reminded that dry demineralized whey D90 is a necessary raw material for the production of breast milk substitute. In Russia, whey with this level of demineralization is practically not produced, and the level of import of D90 whey to Russia is about 160 million rubles.
