Classification of Dairy Plants

ย 
The design and layout of the dairy plant depend much on the quantity of milk handled and the type ofย product made.ย 
ย 
Some may need refrigerated conditions for the distribution of the product, while others may notย need such a requirement.ย 
ย 
Some of the products may not need daily delivery and need to be transported once a weekย or so.ย 
ย 
There is a wide variation in the size and type of dairy plants.ย 
ย 

classification of milk plants as per the type of organization and capacities

ย 
1. Government- Small, Medium, and Large
2. Cooperative -Small, Medium, and Large
3. Private -Small, Medium, and Large

ย 
ย 
The milk plants can be classified broadly into two groups โ€“
ย 

ยท Liquid Milk Plant

ย 
This type of plant should be situated/located as close as possible to the consumer area i.e., generally in or on theย outskirts of a large city or town. It supplies market milk in chilled condition in small retail packs.
ย 

ยท Product Milk Plant

ย 
Here, there is the production of products like cheese, butter, ice-creams, etc. which do not require dailyย distribution to the consumers.ย 
ย 
So the plant should be located near the producing areas. The difference in theย location areas of both plants results in the minimized transportation cost.
ย 

Milk plants can be classified based on their capacity also :

ย 

ยท Small Capacity Milk Plants

ย 
These are usually below 10,000 LPD and may need to load milk in road tankers and send them to larger dairies.ย 
ย 
Veryย limited local sales of liquid milk could be possible, as these are essentially located in small towns.
ย 

ยท Medium Capacity Milk Plants

ย 
The capacity of the medium-sized dairy plant ranges from 20,000 lit to 1,00,000 liters of milk handling per day.
ย 
Layout for products like market milk, butter & ghee, and cheeses can be designed. Each room should be plannedย separately and arranged with a forward flow of product as per requirement.
ย 

Large Capacity Milk Plants

ย 
Here, the plant building may have few floors having a multi-product manufacturer, where the reception is done onย the ground floor and should have both milk treatment and tank storage on the first floor.ย 
ย 
If products like milkย powder are to be manufactured, then the power plant should place in different buildings.ย 
ย 
The classification, in general, may be subject to change in the capacities and there can be a certain overlap in theย type and products handled.ย 
ย 
Some dairies could be handling both liquid milk as well as products, to maximizeย their market reach and profitability.ย 
ย 
Though there were certain restrictions in the area of operation of dairies, theย same is not strictly enforced or adhered to at present.
