Highly concentrated fruit juices are widely used as intermediate products and final products. The highly concentrated product is required to have the original quality of the fruit (color, taste, aroma, etc.). The present invention relates to a method for highly concentrating fruit juice, which enables continuous and stable production of highly concentrated products having the original quality of fruits.

However, this conventional method has a drawback in that it is inevitable that the original quality of the fruit is deteriorated, because the conventional method involves a phase conversion for evaporating water, though the degree of the condition varies.

For this purpose, for example, a method in which fruit juice whose pulp content has been adjusted by squeezing is passed through a one-stage unit equipped with the same membrane module by reverse osmosis to concentrate it (Japanese Patent Publication No. 59-53824), A method of circulating squeezed fruit juice into a multi-stage unit equipped with different membrane modules by reverse osmosis and concentration (JP-A-3-21326), and a filtrate separated from squeezed fruit juice by microfiltration or ultrafiltration. A reverse osmosis concentration method is known in which a solution is circulated through a multi-stage unit equipped with different membrane modules in a circulating manner (JP-A-3-58774). However, these conventional methods have a drawback that it is difficult to continuously produce a highly concentrated product of Brix of 30% or more from fruit juice due to excessive operation pressure, contamination by various bacteria, and complicated operation. There is.

While passing the permeate from the second-stage unit back to the first-stage unit to a second-stage unit equipped with a membrane module having a rejection rate of 30% or less, the permeate is allowed to pass through in a transient manner so that Brix is 30% or more.

Reverse osmosis is performed on fruit juice obtained by crushing and squeezing fruits and having the pulp content adjusted to 5% or more. The pulp content here is 3 for fruit juice.
It is the volume ratio to the whole when centrifuged at 000 rpm × 10 minutes. The pulp content can be adjusted at the same time as the squeezing by setting the conditions, but in order to ensure reliability, it is preferable to subject the squeezed fruit juice to centrifugation or sieving.

Since it is difficult to highly concentrate the pulp, the pulp content is adjusted as low as possible. For example, in the conventional vacuum concentration described above, the fact is that fruit juice adjusted to a pulp content of 1% or less is concentrated in vacuum, and in the conventional reverse osmosis concentration described above (JP-A-3-58774), juice is extracted. The obtained fruit juice is subjected to microfiltration or ultrafiltration, and the separated filtrate is concentrated by reverse osmosis.

整するのが好ましい。Surprisingly, however, when fruit juice prepared by varying the pulp content is passed through a two-stage unit as described below in a transient manner and concentrated by reverse osmosis, the fruit having a pulp content of 5% or more is obtained. For reverse osmosis concentration of juice
Brix 30% or more highly concentrated products can be continuously and stably manufactured. In the present invention, pulp content 5%
This is the reason for reverse osmosis concentration of the fruit juice prepared above. However, if the pulp content is too high, it becomes highly viscous during reverse osmosis concentration, and the pressure loss in the membrane module also increases accordingly. It is preferably adjusted to about 20%.

に得られる濃縮品が雑菌により汚染され易くなる。In the present invention, the fruit juice whose pulp content is adjusted as described above is concentrated by reverse osmosis. In reverse osmosis concentration, fruit juice adjusted to a pulp content of 5% or more is provided in series with a first-stage unit equipped with a membrane module having a salt rejection rate of 90% or more and a membrane module having a salt inhibition rate of 30% or less. It is passed through to the second stage unit in a transient manner. The concentrate obtained from the first-stage unit is the first
A circulation system in which the concentrated product obtained from the second stage unit or the concentrated product obtained from the second stage unit is returned to the first stage unit or the second stage unit is also conceivable. Not only the device structure becomes complicated and its operation becomes complicated, but also the control of bacteria becomes difficult, and the finally obtained concentrated product is easily contaminated by various bacteria.

できなくなってしまう。In reverse osmosis concentration, the permeate from the first-stage unit is discarded and the permeate from the second-stage unit is returned to the first-stage unit. The first-stage unit is equipped with a membrane module equipped with a reverse osmosis membrane with a salt blocking rate of 90% or more, and most of the fruit's original active ingredients are contained in the liquid that permeates the high blocking rate reverse osmosis membrane. Since it is not included,
Discard this. However, the second-stage unit is equipped with a membrane module equipped with a reverse osmosis membrane with a salt rejection rate of 30% or less, and the liquid that permeates the reverse osmosis membrane with such a low rejection rate contains the fruit's original active ingredient. As it is included, it is returned to the first stage unit to recover the active ingredient.
Salt rejection rate of 90% as a membrane module of the 1st stage unit
If the amount less than 30% is used, the active ingredient originally contained in the fruit is lost, and if the salt inhibition rate of more than 30% is used as the membrane module of the second stage unit, the required amount of permeate cannot be obtained. Since the membrane area needs to be increased, the pressure loss in the membrane module increases as a whole,
It will not be possible to continuously and stably manufacture highly concentrated products with ix of 30% or more.
