Food grade p-cymene, d-limonene and α-pinene were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich. n-hexane and absolute ethanol were obtained from ChemSupply. Polyethersulfone (TriSep) and polysulfone (GE Osmonics) ultrafiltration flat-sheet membranes with MWCO of 10 kDa and 90 kDa respectively were cut into coupons with a filtration area of 42 cm 2 . A tubular ceramic membrane with MWCO of 5 kDa (Al2O3/ZrO2) was purchased from Atech Innovations GmbH, Germany. Zirconia is negatively charged at neutral pH (Seshadri et al., 2003) , with isoelectric points around 4.5 (Moritz, Benfer, Árki, & Tomandl, 2001) and has a contact angle with water of 40-80 o (Kujawa, 2019; Lu, Zhang, Gutierrez, Ma, & Croué, 2016; Marchetti, Butté, & Livingston, 2012) , indicative of a hydrophilic surface. The ceramic membrane had a channel diameter of 6 mm and length of 70 mm, which gave a filtration area of 13.2 cm 2 . Crude canola oil samples were kindly provided by Windermere Oilseeds Pty. Ltd. Australia with an average phosphorus content of 280±10 mg kg -1 .
An enzyme cleaning kit consisting of an alkaline cleaner (Hi Flux Excel) and a four enzyme (lipase/protease/amylase/cellulase) buffered mixture (Hi Flux Enzyme Quatro) was kindly supplied by Jasol, Australia.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
