Milk evaporators with MVR or TVR

Evaporator for whey protein production - Bucher Unipektin AG

Evaporating the water in whey is more energy-efficient than simply drying it, which would require much more heat and energy. By removing part of the water (concentrating the product), the evaporator makes the subsequent drying process (often done using spray dryers) more efficient and cost-effective. The evaporation process uses heat in a controlled way (low temperatures), which minimizes damage to the delicate proteins and maintains product quality.

Evaporator for condensed milk production - Bucher Unipektin AG

The evaporator process in condensed milk production involves concentrating milk by removing a significant portion of its water content, turning it into a thicker, more shelf-stable product. The final product is either sweetened or unsweetened, thick, and can be used in various recipes, desserts, or beverages.
