Chilling 1. Domestic refrigerators
2. Immersion cooler 3. Rotor freezer 4. BMC(Bulk milk cooler) The partial sterilization of a product, such as milk or wine, to make it safe for consumption and improve its keeping quality. Pasteurization Temperatures to at least 161° F for not less than 15 seconds, followed by rapid cooling. The term “membrane technology” can be used to collectively Membrane represent the separation processes by employing specific semi- technology permeable membrane filters to concentrate or fractionate a liquid into two liquids which have different compositions. Usually the milk is sterilized at 108-111°C for 25-35 minutes. The sterilized milk bottles should be gradually cooled to room Sterilization temperature. Any sudden cooling may led to bottle breakage. Finally the milk-in-bottles should be stored in a cool place The removal of water by evaporation, from a solid or liquid food, with the purpose of obtaining a solid product sufficiently low in water content
Dehydration Dehydration is an important operation used by many dairy
processors to extend the shelf life of milk and dairy products. Many dairy processors use dehydration as a tool to extend the shelf life of perishable streams. Dehydration inhibits growth of bacteria, yeast and moulds through the removal of water.. The methods of dehydration used in milk preservation are: Spray- drying: in this process, the pre concentrated liquid food is dispersed into a stem of hot gas that results in evaporation of water content resulting in instantaneous drying.
