WHY WHEY?Whey is a component of milk, which separates after curdling when rennet or an edible acidic substance are added. It represents one of the main by-products of the cheese and casein industry. It is a mixture of different substances, some of which potentially valuable if extracted and individually processed. As reported in the following table, the main solid components of whey are soluble proteins, lactose, mineral salts and vitamins. In this section a summary of "Ethanol?
