| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Sanitary stainless tubes are widely used in milking parlour and milk processing plant. In this work, we discussed the cleanability of milk proteins on a highly-smoothed inner surface prepared by magnetic field-assisted finishing (MAF). Data showed that the smoothly finished inner surface (Ra=0.037 um) of stainless steel tubes significantly improved the cleanability of milk residues. The effect of surface roughness was relatively low on the cleanability of milk proteins. The results may indicate that the cleanability of non-protein components of milk residue is affected by surface roughness. MAF may improve the safety of dairy handling and processing equipment.
