Effect of enzymatic treatment on the cross-flow microfiltration of açaí pulp: Analysis of the fouling and recovery of phytochemicals

► Enzymatic treatment of açaí pulp examined in terms of permeate flux decay and recovery of phytochemicals. ► Analyses of fouling through resistance in series and blocking in law models. ► Recovery of phytochemicals evaluated by total polyphenols and antioxidant capacity analysis. ► Positive effect of pectin lyase on the cross-flow microfiltration of açaí pulp.
