Process Description
Processing of raw milk mainly involves heat treatment operation usually known as pasteurization and sterilization. These processes are discussed in detail as follows. A weighed amount of raw milk is pumped to a clarifier by means of the milk pump, where it is removed of microscopic impurities. Clarified milk is next sent to the cooler where it is cooled to about 2-5 C, then pumped to the storage tank. It is spiral pipe lines it must be slope upward 1/4ft in direction of flow to eliminate air so nothing flows faster at air pocket restrictions. Here the milk filtrate 450C and cream is separated at 670C, homogenization in 78-800C, in holding tube 15 sec for pasteurization and immediately chilling at 40C from the holding tube the milk moves to flow diversion device
