Dairy Processing Applications
What challenges can ZwitterCo Evolution membranes solve for you?
Whey & Milk Protein Concentration
Evolution membranes cut cleaning programs by up to six steps, including flushes, helping processors reduce their cleaning costs by over 50%.
Product Concentration
Concentrate whey and other products using Evolution membranes to fully recover performance with a faster, lower-cost cleaning program. Save 1+ hour for every cleaning step eliminated.
Wastewater Concentrators
With Evolution RO, lower your hauling costs with more productive wastewater concentrators that enable lower cleaning costs by eliminating the daily enzyme step.
whey & milk protein concentration
Reduce your cleaning costs by 50%.
With Evolution membranes, your cleaning programs are easier and shorter, enabling more uptime for operators to focus on other important tasks. With easier cleanings and less chemicals, plants enjoy significantly reduced time and labor required for maintenance.
Improve your OPEX.
Simplified & sustainable operations.
Evolution membranes simplify cleaning programs and require fewer chemicals, while also reducing freshwater demand, energy consumption, and amount of wastewater generated.
- Reduced pumping
- Less water
- Less heating of CIP solutions
- Decreased chemical usage
- Reduced energy requirements
Reduced Operating Costs
With lower cleaning costs, decreased water usage, less wastewater generated, and lower energy requirements, Evolution membranes offer a significant decrease in OPEX.
Increase in Uptime
Evolution membranes offer more uptime due to shorter cleaning programs, freeing operators to work on other priorities.
Reduced freshwater demand.
In whey protein concentration applications, Evolution membranes significantly reduce freshwater demand through their simplified cleaning process.
Product Concentration
Simplify cleanings & reduce chemical usage.
Evolution membranes offer easier and quicker cleaning programs that require fewer chemicals, aligning with sustainability goals and cutting operational expenses for dairy processing companies.
Reduce OPEX.
As a risk-free drop-in replacement, Evolution membranes offer a decrease in OPEX and downtime without any additional CAPEX.
- Less water usage
- Less wastewater generated
- Decreased energy requirements
- Lower cleaning/chemical costs
Meet sustainability goals.
Evolution membranes reduce freshwater requirements and minimize chemical usage through a simplified cleaning program. By reducing chemical and water usage, Evolution membranes help dairy processors meet sustainability targets.

What would you do with more time?
Think about it – every step of your daily cleaning program takes about an hour. Each step uses chemicals and make-up water, creates wastewater to treat, and requires energy for heating, pumping, and recirculating the cleaning solution.
What if you could eliminate one or more steps?
Wastewater Concentrators
Eliminate the costly enzyme cleaning step.
Integrating Evolution RO membranes is proven to eliminate the use of enzymes, which is the most expensive step in a cleaning program. This cuts chemical costs by over 50% and saves about an hour of cleaning time.
Decrease freshwater consumption.
By eliminating cleaning steps and associated flushing steps, Evolution RO membranes reduce freshwater demand for dairy processors. Users can reduce freshwater consumption for cleaning by 40% or more by switching to Evolution RO.
A Midwestern US whey processor saved over 1,000,000 gallons (3785 m3) over 10.5 months of operation by switching to Evolution RO.
Save time and money.
By eliminating cleaning steps and simplifying others, Evolution RO membranes cut overall cleaning costs by more than 50% and give valuable time back to operators to focus on production.
