DAIRY/RECOMBINED MILK APPLICATIONS FOR MILK POWDERS

RECOMBINED FLUID MILKUltra-high temperature (UHT) pasteurization of milk is typically done at140 o C for 4 seconds. This kills microorganisms and bacterial spores, whilealso deactivating enzymes. This heat process maintains desirable nutritiveand flavor milk qualities so that it more closely resembles fresh milk. TheUHT processing equipment and the aseptic filling unit do not normally runat the same speed so it is necessary to either have an aseptic buffer tank orto recycle surplus milk back into the process.85
