Advanced technology for bactofuge milk processing

  • Alfa Laval’s unique bottom-fed Hermetic Design™ provides superior skimming efficiency and maintains premium product quality
  • The bottom-fed design reduces shear forces for gentle product treatment that preserves the size of the fat globules
  • Hermetic seals on inlet and outlet prevent oxidation and reduce the foaming of the milk
  • Easy adaptation to process conditions provides increased production flexibility and efficient CIP
  • Energy savings of up to 60% thanks to the Hermetic Design™

Alfa Laval sets the market standard with the Bactofuge® design

The BB and BM Series feature our patented milk Bactofuge® technology. These separators are specifically designed for pre-treating cheese milk, where butter acid spores (anaerobic spores) are effectively removed. They also enhance the quality of milk powders, consumption milk, and cream by efficiently eliminating aerobic spores, such as Bacillus cereus. Separation efficiency, defined as the percentage reduction of bacteria and spores in the incoming milk, can often reach up to 99%.

For installations with particularly high demands, two or more units can be installed in series. With innovative features like Alfa Laval eMotion™ and the bottom-fed Hermetic Design™, the BB and BM Series deliver high energy efficiency, strict hygienic compliance, and a low total cost of ownership, making them the perfect solution for milk bactofuge applications.

The Alfa Laval BB and BM Series separators excel in bactofuge milk applications, such as cheese production, milk and cream processing, and whey, casein, and lactose processing. They are also ideal for yoghurt and cultured milk production, ensuring high-quality, consistent results.
