Milk Processing Line band requires the dehydration of aqueous milk into a crumb in which aromas, flavours and colouring as able-bodied as abounding important apparatus such as protein, fat, carbohydrate, vitamins, minerals etc. are retained. Added challenges is a compatible damp content, atom anatomy and atom admeasurement distribution, solubility, dispersability and wettability.

Sweetened abridged milk (SCM) assembly line

Figure 16.4 beneath shows a aperitive abridged milk activity band bogus from alpha milk. Afore evaporation, the fat and solids-non-fat ethics of the milk accept been affiliated to predetermined. The milk has aswell been calefaction advised to abort micro-organisms and enzymes which could could could could could cause problems and to antithesis the protein complex. Calefaction assay is aswell important to the development of artefact bendability during storage, and is decidedly important in the case of aperitive abridged milk. The accession of amoroso is a key footfall in the accomplish of aperitive abridged milk, as the shelf activity of the artefact depends on its osmotic burden accepting abundantly high. A amoroso agreeable of at diminutive 62.5% in the aqueous actualization is required. Two methods are acclimated for accession of sugar:

The date at which the amoroso is added affects the bendability of the end product. The evaporator is usually of the multistage falling-film type. If amoroso is added in the evaporator, the abstract is fatigued into the evaporator and alloyed with the milk at the half-way date of the process. Juice Processing Line again continues until the adapted dry aggregate agreeable has been reached. The dry aggregate agreeable is arrested continuously by chargeless the physique of the concentrate.
