Abstract: It is disclosed orange juice products with reduced acidity, a deacidification system and a process for deacidifying orange juices comprising eluting the orange juice to be deacidified on a weak anion exchange resin to lead to a deacidified orange juice after elution; wherein the orange juice to be deacidified has an initial pH (pHi) and is eluted on said resin at a rate (BV/h) such that the deacidified orange juice has a pH (pHd) meeting the criteria: [pHi+(0.1-1)]<pHd<[pKa ascorbic acid+(0.1-0.5)].

Abstract: The invention relates to a deacidified juice, as well as a process for deacidifying a cranberry juice to be deacidified that is eluted on a bed or a weak anion exchange resin at a rate (BV/h) such that the deacidified cranberry juice leaving the elution has a pH=pKa1 (malic acid)<pH<pKa (benzoic acid). The invention also relates to a food composition that comprises this deacidified fruit juice.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods, systems, and computer-readable media for controlling a deacidification process for an aqueous fluid circulated through a deacidification column. A first pH value, indicative of a pH of the fluid before circulation through the column, is obtained from a first sensor located at an entry of the column. A second pH value, indicative of a pH of the fluid after circulation through the column, is obtained from a second sensor located at an exit of the column. The second pH value is compared to a target pH value for the fluid to determine a pH difference between the second pH value and the target pH value. Based on the first and second pH values, a deacidification capacity of the column is determined. A fluid flow rate of the fluid through the column is adjusted based on the pH difference and the deacidification capacity.

Abstract: A method for purifying an amino acid from an initial mixture is disclosed, in which the amino acid includes an aromatic ring and has an acidity constant Ka, the method including: a first step of putting the initial mixture into contact with a strong cation resin, at a pH greater than or equal to pKa; and a second elution step with an aqueous solution of eluent having a pH greater than the pH of the first step, giving the possibility of collecting a flow enriched in the amino acid.

Abstract: A process of separating carboxylic acids comprising two steps. The first step is to provide an aqueous solution comprising (i) one or more mono-carboxylic acids, (ii) one or more di-carboxylic acids, and (iii) one or more tri-carboxylic acids. The second step is to pass the aqueous solution through a collection of resin particles, where the resin particles comprise covalently bound quaternary ammonium groups, and wherein the collection of resin particles has uniformity coefficient of 1.5 or less.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for separating biomolecules from an aqueous solution containing the biomolectules and impurities, having different affinities and/or interactions with a solid support. The solution is passed over a fixed bed of chromatographic resin containing at least three zones, with flow of liquid being arranged between adjacent zones and between a last and first zone. Each of several sequences includes at least an adsorption stage, a rinsing stage, or a desorption stage, with each subsequent sequence being carried out by a downstream displacement of fronts in the zones by approximately the same increment before the periodical displacement of the introduction and withdrawal points.
