Abstract:
A method of and equipment for controlling the content of fat in milk. Whole milk is separated into skim milk. Some of the cream is returned to the skim milk to create a standardized milk. The standardized milk is employed to derive a parameter that dictates how much cream is to be added. The fat contents detected in the standardized milk are exploited to vary the amount of added cream. The density of the skim milk is measured at intervals and the results are stored. The density of the standardized milk is measured and more or less cream is added until a prescribed difference between the skim milk and the standardized milk, corresponding to the desired fat content in the standardized milk, is obtained. The density of the skim milk and that of the standardized milk are measured in the same sensor. The result of each measurement of the density of the skim milk is compared with the stored result. When there is a discrepancy between the two results, the most recently measured result is stored instead of the previously stored result. How much cream is added is controlled in accordance with a density difference that varies with the discrepancy.
Abstract:
A centrifuge drum for separating mixtures of liquids, especially for separating refrigerated milk into cream and skim milk, with an intake pipe secured to a stationary housing to supply refrigerated milk to a separation space in the centrifuge drum and a pealing disk for diverting the separated skim milk. The pealing disk is positioned in a pealing chamber that communicates through channels with the periphery of the separation space. A diversion chamber is disposed between the separation space and the pealing chamber that communicates with the center of the separation space and has a diversion channel for diverting the cream into a stationary interception chamber. The pealing chamber is positioned axially between the diversion chamber and the interception chamber and the diversion channel is positioned concentric with the axis of rotation of the drum, whereby the diversion channel extends radially outward from the diversion chamber, through the center of the pealing disk, and into the interception chamber.
Abstract:
A liquid milk product, such as milk or cream, is caused to flow along the surface of a filter at one side thereof from an inlet of the filter to an outlet thereof at a velocity of 0.5 to 20.0 m/sec., the main quantity of the filter pores each having a diameter of 0.2 to 10 .mu.m. At the same time, skim milk is passed through the filter to the other side thereof under a pressure drop of at least 0.2 kp/cm.sup.2 while discharging a cream-enriched product from said outlet, and the greater part of this cream-enriched product is returned from said outlet to the inlet of the filter.

Abstract:
Continuous production of standardized milk is carried out with a method and apparatus wherein milk is separated into cream and skimmilk, an amount of cream is remixed with skimmilk to produce standardized milk, the standardized milk is continuously tested for fat content, the amount of cream remixed with the skimmilk is automatically regulated in accordance with the fat content of the standardized milk and standardized milk and separated cream are recycled to milk being separated if fat content of the standardized milk is not within prescribed limits.
Abstract:
Milk to be standardized is fed continuously to a centrifugal separator which discharges separate flows of skim milk and cream; and the density of the separated cream is maintained substantially constant by continuously measuring such density and using these density measurements to control one of the separate flows. Pipelines leading from these separate flows to a mixing zone are provided with meters for measuring the flow rates of the skim milk and cream, respectively; and a quotient controller operatively connected to the flow meters controls the flow through one of the pipelines to maintain the quotient of the respective flow rates substantially constant.
Abstract:
A method for producing a fat standardized milk product, including separating raw milk into cream and skim milk, wherein the cream is fed to a main cream pipe and the skim milk is fed to a skim milk pipe, dividing the cream in the main cream pipe into a cream remixing pipe and a cream surplus pipe, combining the cream in the cream remixing pipe and the skim milk in the skim milk pipe into the fat standardized milk product, wherein the fat standardized milk product is fed to a product pipe, wherein controlling a flow rate in the cream remixing pipe by regulating a valve placed in the cream surplus pipe.
