The process involve in filtration are- Reverse Osmosis. Nano filtration. Ultra filtration. Micro filtration. 1. Reverse Osmosis- The milk passes through the small pores of reverse osmosis (RO) membrane which removes water from the cooled milk. 2. Nano filtration- Nano filtration is a process which is used with water for removal of disinfections in dairy products such as natural organic matter and synthetic organic matter. 3. Ultra filtration- Ultra filtration is used for separating milk according to their molecular size. In ultra filtration of milk some molecules like lactose, soluble mineral and water passes the membrane. Ultra filtration milk is widely used in making dairy products. 4.
