ColloidTek’s Solution to Reduce Dairy Product Losses
Rising costs from inflation and an increased focus on reducing carbon dioxide emissions make product loss management more important than ever in dairy plants. One major reason losses occur in the dairy industry is because timing or other processing parameters are set incorrectly, causing a lot of valuable dairy product to be unnecessarily discarded along with the facility’s wastewater. ColloidTek’s Collo Analyzer addresses this problem by detecting any type of liquid in the pipes in real-time, offering a solution for optimizing production and cutting product losses.
The rising costs of raw milk, electricity and other expenses are driving dairy plants to put more focus on reducing milk loss. The cost of raw milk has increased by 64% in two years in the EU region, and in some countries the price is significantly higher. With thin profit margins, it is strategically necessary for dairy plants to minimize product loss. At the same time, there is global pressure to reduce the carbon footprint of dairy production, and milk loss during processing plays a key role.
