A METHOD OF IMPROVING THE EFFICIENCY OF FAT SEPARATION IN THE SEPARATION OF A LIQUID FOOD PRODUCT

摘要

The invention relates to a method of improving the efficiency of fat separation in the separation of a liquid food product with a certain fat content. The method comprises the method step that the liquid food product is caused to pass two separators connected in parallel, a first (1) and a second (2), in which the product is divided up into a lighter and a heavier phase. The first separator (1) is regulated so that the lighter phase will have a fat content which is less than 15 %. The lighter phase from the first (1) of the separators connected in parallel is led into the inlet conduit (4) to the second (2) of the separators connected in parallel.
