Protein transport in open ultrafiltration
This thesis aims to quantify the mass transfer of proteins through a membrane and understand which driving forces in the system are responsible for protein–protein separation with ultrafiltration (UF).
Advances in Membrane Separation for Biomaterial Dewatering
Dewatering by membrane separation is a sustainable and efficient alternative for drying biomaterials.
Functionality-driven food formulation
This research proposes a method to create ingredient formulations based on their functional properties rather than of what they are composed.
Metabolomics and sensory studies to uncover asparagus flavour
Mass spectrometry (MS) – based techniques were used to investigate the metabolome of raw, cooked and processed asparagus materials.
Spray drying of asparagus waste into flavour-rich ingredients
The residual flow of white asparagus is very suitable for spray-drying into powder.
Pea fractionation into functional ingredients
In this thesis, the process of yellow pea from structured seed to structured product is investigated.
PINcHED – Process Integrated Heat Pump Drying
The PINcHED project investigates the heat pump process integration for 2 typical drying processes: Convective drying (Huhtamaki use case) and Contact drying (Cosun/Rixona and AVEBE use cases).
