Abstract: A process for processing mandarin segments with both acidic and alkaline process water being directly utilized uses an organic acid or an inorganic polyacid instead of a monobasic inorganic acid. Mandarin segments, obtained by separating peeled mandarin into the segments, are treated by the organic acid or inorganic polyacid solution, and then subjected to removal of segment membranes in an alkali solution. The acidic and alkaline water after treatment is collected directly. The collected water can then be filtered and mixed for making an electrolyte beverage or a beverage base, containing multiple functional ingredients such as pectin, flavonoid, pigment, and limonin. Also, the collected water can be used to make dietary fiber having an activity of improving intestinal function.
