FSN Delivers Iran’s First D90 Cheese Whey Demineralization Plant
Enabling Infant-Grade Whey Powder Production in Golestan Province
August 2, 2025 — Gorgan, Iran
Farayand Sazan Novin (FSN) has completed the design, manufacturing, and commissioning of Iran’s first industrial D90 (Demineralized Whey Powder 90%) production line for Iran Dairy – Pegah Golestan Co. This breakthrough project unlocks new potential for infant formula and high-purity food-grade whey applications in Iran.
The plant uses nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) technologies to reduce ash (mineral) content in whey by over 90%, while preserving lactose and proteins essential for nutritional formulations.
Key Features:
- Multi-Stage Demineralization Technology: Based on NF and RO — optimized for high ash removal and low energy consumption.
- Food-Grade Spray Drying System: Converts purified whey into a fine, white powder with excellent solubility.
- Fully Automated Operation: Ensures product safety, consistency, and efficient performance.
“With this D90 plant, Pegah Golestan enters a high-value product segment, reducing import dependence and increasing regional capabilities in functional dairy ingredients,” said Mr. Siamak M. Davani.
The line has successfully completed commissioning and is ready for full-scale commercial operation.
