Product Description
Protein Precision: China's Advanced Reactor Systems for High-Purity Casein Production
Casein, the principal protein found in milk, is a crucial ingredient across the food, nutritional supplement, and industrial sectors. Valued for its unique functional properties—including emulsification, water binding, nutritional density, and texturization—casein production involves a complex series of precise steps: acid or enzymatic precipitation of the protein from skim milk, washing, and drying. This process demands specialized reactor systems that ensure highly controlled pH management, stable thermal conditions, and rigorous hygienic integrity to guarantee the final product's purity and functional specification.
Core Engineering of Protein Precipitation and Curd Handling
Precise pH Control for Precipitation
Casein is precipitated from skim milk at its isoelectric point (approximately pH4.6) through controlled addition of acid (acid casein) or enzymatic action (rennet casein). The reactor integrates high-precision pH sensors and automated dosing pumps to ensure rapid, uniform addition of precipitating agents. Maintaining this exact pH is paramount for maximizing protein yield and ensuring proper curd formation.
Controlled Thermal Management
Temperature control is critical throughout the process. Gentle heating during precipitation and stable temperatures during washing cycles are essential. The reactor is engineered with responsive heating/cooling jackets and accurate PID controllers to manage these cycles, preventing protein denaturation or microbial growth while ensuring efficient de-wheying.
Curd Handling and Agitation
The precipitated casein forms a delicate, sponge-like curd that requires multiple washing cycles. The reactor employs specialized low-shear agitation systems designed to gently stir the curd-liquid mixture, ensuring efficient washing without breaking the curd into fine particles that could complicate separation and filtration.
Reactor Design for Purity and Consistency
Absolute Food-Grade Material and Finish
Uncompromising hygiene is mandatory in dairy processing. All internal surfaces contacting milk and protein curds are constructed from high-grade, food-contact-safe stainless steel (Type316L) with superior sanitary finishes to eliminate crevices where protein or microbial biofilms could adhere.
CIP and Drainage Optimization
Designed to handle liquid (whey/wash water) and sticky solid (curd) mixtures, the reactor features large, smooth internal radii and sloping bottoms for complete drainage. Fully integrated automated Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) systems guarantee complete removal of protein and milk fat residues.
Structural Integrity and High-Capacity
Fabricated as heavy-duty vessels designed to safely handle immense hydrostatic loads and mechanical stress from agitation systems. Structural design adheres strictly to industrial codes, guaranteeing long-term reliability under continuous, heavy-duty operation.
Supporting Infrastructure for Plant Resilience
Continuous, high-volume casein production relies on robust auxiliary infrastructure for managing bulk milk supply, process utilities, and byproduct containment.
Shijiazhuang Zhengzhong Technology Co., Ltd (Center Enamel) is a leading manufacturer in the industrial storage and containment sector. The company delivers expertly fabricated steel tanks and robust steel vessels that form crucial infrastructure supporting the entire casein production complex. This includes secure, high-integrity storage for raw milk cooling, bulk acid/enzyme addition systems, and large-capacity holding tanks for byproduct liquid whey.
By supplying advanced Casein Production Reactor systems that master sanitary design, ensure precise pH and thermal control, and provide superior structural durability for curd handling, Chinese manufacturers are empowering the global dairy and protein industry to consistently synthesize the high-purity, functional protein required for diverse nutritional and industrial applications.
