METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING LOW-PHOSPHORUS WHEY

摘要

Disclosed herein is a method of manufacturing a low-phosphorus whey, the method comprising: subjecting a raw whey liquid to a demineralization treatment using a nanofiltration method to obtain a low-chloride whey liquid in which a chloride content has been reduced to not more than 30 mmol per 100 g of solids, and passing the low-chloride whey liquid through an ion exchange resin, wherein the ion exchange resin comprises an anion exchange resin, and at least an anion exchange resin in chloride form is used as the anion exchange resin, wherein the pH of the raw whey liquid is within a range from 6 to 7, and a pH of the low-chloride whey liquid and a pH of an eluate from the anion exchange resin are both within a range from 6 to 7 and a combined total of a calcium content and a magnesium content is at least 10 mmol per 100 g of solids.
