Oligosaccharides are important ingredients for food and feed products. There has therefore
been much interest in the development of biocatalytic processes for their production …

Continuous production delivers higher productivity and better quality than traditional batch-
wise approaches. It intensifies production lowering capital cost and enables better control …

Certain types of oligosaccharides are especially interesting due to their high commercial
value, however, the traditional oligosaccharide fabrication process is neither sustainable nor …

There is growing interest in the food industry to develop approaches for large-scale
production of bioactive molecules through continuous downstream processing, especially …

Membrane technology is commonly used within food, bio-and pharmaceutical processes.
Beside single-stage membranes, multi-stage membrane systems are become more popular …

Membrane cascades can fractionate fructooligosaccharides into 3 different fractions with
varying degrees of polymerization (DP). In contrast to the traditional membrane system …

Open nanofiltration of mixtures of fructo-oligosaccharides was assessed by experiment and
by modelling the overall permeation behaviour of 3 different membranes. The temperature …

Inhomogeneous membrane cascade systems have been utilized to purify
fructooligosaccharides (FOS). Such a process allows a different setup at every stage of the …

We developed a design method for an inhomogeneous membrane cascade by adopting the
McCabe-Thiele method, which is long established for designing distillation columns. The …

Fructose and glucose are commonly present together in mixtures and may need to be
separated. Current separation methods for these isomers are complex and costly …
