Production Process of Skim Milk Powder
The extensive skim milk powder production cost report consists of the following industrial production process:
- From Spray Drying Process: The production process of skimmed milk powder, or SMP, comprises the spray drying process. Initially, the skimmed milk is processed through spray drying under a controlled temperature. The method evaporates the moisture content and then blows to obtain milk in the form of powder at the end.
- From Roller Drying Process: Skimmed milk powder is produced by the roller drying process. In this method, the skimmed milk is poured between the hot metal rollers or drums. The hot metal rollers produce thin, dried, skimmed milk sheets. These sheets are then milled to produce skim milk powder.
Skimmed Milk Powder, also known as non-fat dry milk, is a dairy product prepared from skimmed milk. It is a fine, white powder that flows freely and is free of lumps. The texture and particle size of the powder are frequently consistent. It has a low moisture content of roughly 3-4%, allowing it to be shelf-stable and have a long storage life.
The particle size of Skimmed Milk Powder varies according to the manufacturing method; however, it is common in the 100–200-micron range. It is extremely soluble in water and forms a clear, sediment-free solution. Temperature, pH, and agitation can all have an impact on solubility. It contains protein, calcium, and other vital components present in milk. It usually has less than 1% fat and about 35% protein.
