Stainless Steel Milk Pasteurization Tank for Dairy Processing

Product introduction of Milk Pasteurization Tank

Milk Pasteurization Tank is a compact stainless steel processing tank designed for fresh milk and liquid food pasteurization. It integrates heating, sterilization, insulation and cooling functions in one unit, providing an efficient solution for small dairy farms, milk stations, schools and laboratories. With adjustable pasteurization temperature and holding time, the tank ensures effective microbial reduction while preserving product flavor, nutrients and quality. The water circulation heating system provides uniform heat transfer and stable temperature control. It is widely used for milk, yogurt base, juice, soy milk, egg liquid and other liquid food products requiring hygienic batch pasteurization.

Working principle

The Milk Pasteurization Tank uses indirect water bath heating technology to achieve controlled pasteurization.

Processing Process:

Product Filling
Fresh milk or liquid products are transferred into the stainless steel pasteurization tank.
