1. Which stages of the milk production process necessitate a industrial chiller?
Cooling environment after raw milk inspection: In the milk production process, after the fresh raw milk is filtered and inspected, the chiller rapidly reduces the temperature of the raw milk by transferring cooling water to the milk system.
UHT sterilization cooling: milk after UHT sterilization treatment is at a higher temperature, need to use an industrial chiller to quickly reduce the temperature of the milk.
Milk processing equipment cooling: in the milk processing process, some equipment may produce heat, so the a need to use an industrial chiller for cooling to ensure its normal operation.
2. The role of industrial chiller in milk production
Ensure the quality of milk: milk at high temperatures or room temperature is susceptible to bacterial and microbial contamination, triggering the denaturation of milk proteins, taste, loss of nutrients, quality degradation, and other issues. The use of an low temperature chiller can quickly cool the temperature of raw milk, and prevent the growth and reproduction of bacteria, thus ensuring the freshness and safety of milk. Reduce the economic loss of milk manufacturers.
Increase the productivity and durability of milk processing equipment: As mentioned in section 1, milk equipment generates a lot of heat during operation and the temperature of the equipment may rise, leading to overheating. Some equipment may shut down due to overheating, affecting production schedules and yields, and, in severe cases, may lead to damage or deformation of equipment components, thus increasing the risk of equipment failure. Through the use of low temperature chiller for cooling, the temperature of the equipment can be reduced in time to keep the equipment within the appropriate working temperature range, improving production efficiency and equipment life.
3. Tips for Finding the Right Industrial Chiller
If you are a milk producer and want to choose the right low temperature chiller for your milk production line, Kassel recommends you consider the following factors:
Cooling demand and cooling capacity: Cooling demand and cooling capacity are our primary considerations. Let's imagine the various stages of the milk production process. Which stages need the support of an low temperature chiller ? We need to determine the cooling capacity required for each step so that we can calculate how many suitable low temperature chillers are needed for the entire milk production line.
Environmental suitability: Consider the environmental conditions of the milk production plant, such as temperature, humidity, and space constraints. Ensure that the selected industrial chiller can be adapted to the production environment, and can operate stably and reliably.
Cooling method: air-cooled chiller OR water-cooled chiller.
Brand reputation and after-sales service: choose a industrial chiller brand with a good reputation and perfect after-sales service, to ensure that in the process of use can be timely access to technical support and maintenance services.
Pricing: Under the premise of guaranteeing product quality and after-sales service, choose the industrial chiller with a more reasonable price.
FAQ: Is it better to choose an low temperature chiller with heat recovery for milk production?
In some European countries, electricity prices are high. If your milk production line is equipped with a high-power low temperature chiller, we recommend that you use an low temperature chiller with heat recovery. Because milk releases a lot of heat energy during the production process, using an industrial chiller with heat recovery, the heat recovery function can reduce energy consumption and operating costs by converting the heat generated during the cooling process into reusable energy that can be utilized, for example, to heat the milk or other hot water needed in the production process.
The recovery benefits of a heat recovery chiller may be lower if the milk production is smaller, less productive, and produces relatively less heat. In this case, other factors such as initial investment and operating costs may be more important and the option of a conventional chiller may be considered.
Product Recommendation——Kassel Low-Temperature Screw Chillers with Heat Recovery
●The low-temperature screw chiller adopts an independent refrigeration system, the moving parts are minimized, and the operation is stable and reliable.
●The low-temperature screw chiller adopts the patented heat collector technology, which can effectively utilize and recover the heat energy generated during the cooling process. Generally, heat recovery can reach 30% to 40% of the cooling capacity in summer and up to 75% in winter.
Industrial chillers play a key role in milk production lines. By providing cooling water, they help to rapidly cool milk during production, ensuring safety and quality during processing, sterilization, and storage. The industrial chiller can effectively control the temperature of the equipment, improve production efficiency, extend the service life of the equipment, and have the advantage of energy saving and environmental protection.
