OIL OR FAT RECOVERING FROM MILK AND CREAM

Fuente: WIPO "milk"
Consists in separating the cream from the skim milk washing the cream with water to remove the skim milk ingredients and then evaporating off the water filtering the oil after the water is evaporated passing the whole milk through a centrifuge to separate out the cream diluting this cream with water and passing the dilution through a centrifuge to wash out the skim milk ingredients repeating this step until the proportion of skim milk remaining becomes negligible and then removing the water from the oil by evaporation washing the cream with water until the proportion of skim milk becomes negligible then condensing the oil and water by evaporation to remove the water under such conditions of temperature as will cause the oil droplets to melt and coalesce.
