LE00/PM Pilot Plant for the Production of Pasteurized Milk

The Dairy Products Production Pilot Plant "LE00", Computer Controlled and with Touch Screen, is a pilot plant capable of demonstrating, for further research and study, the main processes involved in the dairy treatment industry. That is, from the treatment of raw milk for its commercialization and conservation, to the production of dairy products such as cream, butter, cheese, cottage cheese and yogurt.

This pilot plant is further subdivided into different pilot plants with which we try to cover and give a detailed solution to the industries involved in the treatment of milk and therefore give a complete solution to each of the industries that deal with dairy products (from its production until consumption).

With the Pilot Plant for the Production of Pasteurized Milk, "LE00/PM", designed by EDIBON, we cover the first phase of fresh milk treatment to obtain pasteurized milk, following the following stages:

• A homogenization treatment is previously done to decrease the size of the milk fat globules.
• Subsequently, the pasteurization process is carried out by a heat treatment of the food fluid (in this case milk) is performed to eliminate the existing bacteria without reducing the quality or properties of the milk.
• A refrigerated tank is also included for the storage of the milk used during the process.
• Finally, the pasteurized milk obtained is suitably bottled.
