Spore and bacteria removal unit for dairy products

Ensure superior quality by precisely removing spores and bacteria from milk and dairy products, enhancing both product safety and consistency in your production line.

Removes Spores and Bacteria Efficiently

The Tetra Pak® Bactofuge unit is engineered to elevate dairy production by effectively removing spores and bacteria. This unit utilizes AirTight technology to enhance spore and bacteria removal efficiency, minimizing air intake to preserve product integrity. Integrating seamlessly into pre-processing and processing phases, it supports continuous operations across cheese milk, consumption milk, and milk powder production. With a capacity ranging from 5,000 to 55,000 liters per hour, it accommodates diverse applications, including whey and protein concentration. Its hermetic seals reduce energy consumption and safeguard quality, while the corrosion-resistant Duplex steel bowl ensures durability. Custom configurations and engineering support tailor the unit to specific production needs, maximizing operational efficiency and product quality.
