PROCESSES INVOLVED IN MILK MANAGEMENT

1.     RAW MILK RECEPTION DOCK (RMRD)


RMRD section is the part of the milk industry where the raw milk is received from 325 societies & 3 chilling centers in Kalanour, Batala, Tugal wala. Can of different societies are received at this station. Cow milk cans are marked with yellow color and buffalo milk cans are marked with red color. In RMRD section good quality of milk is received. In RMRD section, milk is received in cans and vans are put on the conveyor belt. Here each can is properly smelled and mixed with the plunger.

1.   MILK PROCESSING


For a good quality product proper processing is very important. Processing is done in a sequence. The sequence operations in processing are as given below:
a.    CHILLING
All incoming milk is chilled first and then it is diverted to milk store tanks. Milk is chilled below 4°C. The raw chilled milk is utilized for various products processing operations. The chilled milk is stored in tanks called silo.
b.    PASTEURIZING
Milk is pasteurized to 80°C for 15 seconds & then immediately cooled below
4°C. The pasteurizer has the following sections:
Chilled water Section.
  Regeneration 1 and 2.
Hot air section
  Holding section.
The pasteurizer is plate heat exchanger type consisting of many conducting plates arranged parallel to form a network of many plates lying side by side. Alternate plates are for carrying milk and hot water. The length & breadth of plates flow rate are so adjusted to give proper contact time to milk for proper pasteurization. The high temperatures short time (HIST) method is being used here.

Pasteurization & Standardization of Milk

Purpose:  To pasteurize and standardize milk Scope: Respective product section Responsibility: 
Production and Quality Assurance department

1. Ingredient:

1.1 Raw Milk- Raw milk quality shall be checked for each silo / storage tank and certified by QA before     feeding to pasteurizer.
2. Equipments & Utilities Required
2.1 Storage Tank / Silo
 2.2 Milk pasteurizer
 2.3 In-line duplex filter
2.4 Cream separator
2.5 Cream Pasteurizer
2.6 Homogenizer
 2.7 Pumps, Valves & Pipe lines
 2.8 C.I.P system
 2.9 Chilled water (0 to 1°C)
 22.10 Compressed Air (6 Kg / cm pressure)
 22.11 Steam (2.5 to 3 Kg / cm pressure)
2.12 Soft water (hardness < 10 ppm)
 2.13 Electricity (Power Supply-3 phase 415 volt & single phase 230V)

3. Procedure

3.1 For pasteurization milk should be heated at 76±2°C and cream should be heated at 88±2°C with holding time of minimum15 seconds.
 3.2 Plant operators will not change heating temperature without approval of production Manager / Incharge.
 3.3 Cream separator and Homogenizer should be kept in line.
3.4 Before pasteurization, operation of flow diversion valve should be checked.
 3.5 Controls and measuring instruments should be calibrated in fixed interval.
 3.6 The online recording of temperatures and forward flow should be monitored by the Manager / Incharge production.
 3.7 The pasteurized milk should be stored in the cleaned milk storage tank / silo.
3.8 Pressure head of hot water, chilled water & product should be maintained as per the design parameters of the pasteurizer.
 3.9 Milk can be standardized by using cream, skim milk, concentrate & reconstituted milk. 
3.10 C.I.P of pasteurizer should be done before and after its use however the intermediate C.I.P should be done after 6-8 hours of its continuous use. This time may vary depending upon the quality of incoming milk.
 3.11 Complete pipe line, filters and storage tank / silo should be properly cleaned and sanitized before the storage of pasteurized milk. Quality assurance staff will certify its cleanliness before its use.
 3.12 All the CCP should be strictly maintained by production department and certified by the quality assurance at the start of every shift.
 3.13 MBRT and Phosphatase test will be conducted at fixed interval.
 3.14 Manual cleaning of pasteurizer should be done after every six months however this time period may decreased depending upon the quality of incoming milk and flow of milk.
3.15 Guidelines of GMP (as per IS 16021:2012) should always be applied during Processing & Standardization.

Note: Regeneration efficiency of pasteurizer should not be less than 90%.

C. CREAM SEPERATION
Milk after regeneration l-passes to cream separator. The cream from cream separator goes to cream pasteurizer & from cream pasteurizer to cream storage tank where  as the skim milk diverted to pasteurizers. Fat % in cream=35-40% Fat % in skim milk = 0.05-1% Separator efficiency = 65-70%
d. CREAM PASTEURIZER
It is a plate exchange type of pasteurizer specially designed to pasteurize cream at 90°C for 15 second. The pasteurized cream is then pumped in the cream storage tanks, from here cream is sent to the butter section or it could be sent to the balance tank when milk is standardized.
e. HOMOGENIZER
Homogenization is the process of making stable emulsion of milk serum by mechanical treatment. It is referred to as the process of forcing the milk through homogenizer with the object of subdividing the fat globules. Homogenizer is a high pressured piston pump which is designed to subject the liquid milk to a high pressure & and allow the product to pass through a very special valve. This process breaks up the fat globules & increases the ability of protein to hold water of hydration and also soften the curd. The temperature of the homogenization is so chosen that is above the melting point of fat (33°C) & lipase is deactivated (55°C). In routine practice the temperature of homogenization chosen is 6570°C. Homogenization is carried out in two stages. In the plant, milk is homogenized for preparation of VERKA premium milk.


4.PRE-PACKING SECTION

To protect contamination retard or prevent losses of the milk products have to be properly. In the plant liquid milk is filled in the pouches made of LDPE . it can be sealed at 150oc. The packaging is done by automatic fill & seal machine called pre-pack machine. Capacity of the machine is 3000 pouches per hour.

 Milk powder is made in the powder plant, the plant consist of two parts.

EVAPORATOR

→ SPRAY DRYER UNIT

In the evaporator, the milk is concentrated at about 48% solid. The evaporation from the milk takes under vacuum, which is maintained by the vacuum steam. Steam is supplied as heating medium. The concentrated product at desired concentration is continuously taken out from the evaporator. The concentrate is then brought to spray drying chamber by spraying it to the spray nozzle with the help of pressure pumps. The droplets of feed are atomized with the help of high pressure nozzle & change to powder when they come in contact with the hot air, which is supplied from the top the chamber. Fine powder is sucked through the exhaust fan along with the exhaust air & is then separated in the cyclone separator. Fine powder is received at the bottom of the conical portion of the drying chamber. Powdered milk is then collected and packed
