Durable Dairy Plant Complete UHT Milk Processing Line / Fresh Milk Processing Machinery

Complete UHT Milk Processing Line / UHT Milk Production Plant With Aseptic Brick Carton Package

DESCRIPTION

With a product that can be stored for long periods without spoiling and with no need for refrigeration, there are many

 advantages for both the producer, the retailer and the consumer. This includes expensive products such as cream,

desserts and sauces.

In a modern UHT plant (Ultra High Temperature) the milk is pumped through a closed system. On the way it is

preheated, highly heat treated, homogenised, ultra highly heat treated, cooled and packed aseptically. Low acid

(pH above 4.5 – for milk more than pH 6.5) liquid products are usually treated at 135 – 150C for a few seconds holding, by either indirect heating or direct steam injection or infusion. High acid

(pH below 4.5) products such as juice are normally heated at 90 – 95C for 15 – 30 seconds holding. All parts of the system downstream of the actual highly heating section are of aseptic design to

eliminate the risk of reinfection, include aseptic packaging in packages protecting the product against light and

atmospheric oxygen. Ambient storage is normal.

Various UHT systems:

There are two main types of UHT systems on the market.
- In the direct systems the product comes in direct contact with the heating medium, followed by flash cooling in a

vacuum vessel and eventually further indirect cooling to packaging temperature. The direct systems are divided into:
•steam injection systems (steam injected into product),
•steam infusion systems (product introduced into a steam-filled vessel).
- In the indirect systems the heat is transferred from the heating media to the product through a partition (plate or

tubular wall). The indirect systems can be based on:
•plate heat exchangers,
•tubular heat exchangers,
•scraped surface heat exchangers,
Furthermore it is possible to combine the heat exchangers in the direct systems according to product and process

requirements.

The figure below is an indirect system - tubular UHT plant as an example.
