Calcium phosphate deposition from simulated milk ultrafiltrate on different stainless steel-based surfaces

Protein–calcium phosphate interactions in fouling of modified stainless-steel surfaces by simulated milk

“…The rotating disk apparatus is an apparatus composed of a hollow cone containing heated silicone oil that can freely rotate in the fouling solution contained in a cylindrical thermostatically (Rosmaninho & Melo, 2006). This apparatus was used to study the deposition of calcium phosphate onto stainless-steel surfaces (having a circular shape with 90 mm diameter) under controlled hydrodynamics.…”

“…Literature on the building up of calcium phosphate layers from strictly mineral solution is abundant (House, 1999;Lu & Leng, 2005;Liu, Wu, Sethuraman, & Nancollas, 1997;Rosmaninho & Melo, 2006). Additionally, several studies have been carried out in recent times concerning the deposition behaviour of whey proteins under different temperatures (Santos, Nylander, Paulsson, & Tragardh, 2006a;Santos, Nylander, Schillen, Paulsson, & Tragardh, 2006b), concentrations and denaturation ratios (Elofsson, Paulsson, Sellers, & Arnebrant, 1996).…”

Design of intelligent surfaces for energy intensive processing industry

“…This is why particles tend to adhere to metallic surfaces more than polymer based surfaces. High surface energy materials are more prone to nucleation and thus have more nucleation sites than lower surface energy materials [42]. It is these nucleation sites that are the starting point for mineral adhesion.…”

Identifying the Nature of Fouling Layers by Online Monitoring of the Propagation of Vibrations Along the Deposition Surface

“…Attacking the source of the problem has had many different approaches, such as improving heat exchanger design [10], using antifouling chemical agents or antifouling surfaces [11,12], or optimizing production-cleaning cycles with the help of online noninvasive monitoring systems [13,14].…”
