Low temperature concentration of skim milk by direct freezing and vacuum evaporation

Skim milk was concentrated to approximately 20% TS by direct freezing and ice filtration. The concentrate was vacuum evaporated to 45% TS with the same equipment. Protein denaturation was minimal during concentration. Surface tension of milk samples was measured during concentration close to 0 degre...

Summary:Skim milk was concentrated to approximately 20% TS by direct freezing and ice filtration. The concentrate was vacuum evaporated to 45% TS with the same equipment. Protein denaturation was minimal during concentration. Surface tension of milk samples was measured during concentration close to 0 degrees C. The process cost for plants of various sizes were estimated from pilot plant data. The estimated cost and the good quality of the reconstituted skim milk support the recommendation that the process should undergo further development
