Abstract: A method of extracting oil from biological raw material includes creating a slurry of biological raw material, raising or lowering a pH of the slurry to separate lipid and protein components in the slurry, further separating the lipid and protein components into a first lipid rich phase and a protein rich phase, adjusting a pH of the first lipid rich phase to a point at which additional proteins in the first lipid rich phase coagulate, and recovering a second lipid rich phase from the additional coagulated proteins.

Abstract: A method of collecting proteins from a washwater and/or wastewater stream by means of a pH shift technique, aided with dissolved bubbles of air or gases, in order to substantially reduce the environmental impact of wastewater discharge and improve the value of the recovered protein. The pH shift process can coagulate and recover the protein at low temperatures (?1 to 10 degrees Celsius) making the proteins recovered suitable for human food applications, without heating.
