Denaturation Kinetics of Whey Protein Isolate Solutions and Fouling Mass Distribution in a Plate Heat Exchanger

Figure 7

Fouling mass distribution, related to the projected heat transfer area per plaque, in each channel of the PHE for the two fouling solutions. 1% (w/w) WPI solution containing (a) 100 ppm calcium and (b) 120 ppm calcium ( corresponds to the thermal profile number given in Figure 4 and Table 2).
