UV Pasteurization Technology Approaches for Market Milk Processing
2021
Pasteurization is commonly used to kill microorganisms during dairy product
production. UV light/radiations act in such a way that they neutralize harmful
microorganisms like bacteria, viruses and fungi. UV light is one of the most
important and rising non-thermal technologies of food processing that can be used
in producing a wide range of food products with extended shelf-life, protection
from any harmful microorganisms and a highly nourished quality of food. UV
application reduces disease transmission. There are various applications of UV
light in market milk like the disinfection of air, water, food contact surfaces
and packaging materials. In this chapter, the efficacy and application of UV light
treatment on dairy products and market milk are highlighted. Principle, sources of
UV light, benefits, applications and efficacy of UV light for future adaption in
the dairy industry are discussed here.
