WANA (Jan 21) – An Iranian inventor has introduced an innovative solution to the dairy industry of Iran with the creation of the Super Turbo Milk Chiller, a device that eliminates the need for traditional cooling plates, ensuring safer milk without the use of additives like hydrogen peroxide or baking soda.

 

Historically, to combat bacterial contamination in milk, some factories in Iran have resorted to adding substances like hydrogen peroxide or baking soda. While effective, these chemicals are undesirable in milk intended for consumption. The need for such interventions arises when milk, after being milked at high temperatures, becomes a breeding ground for bacteria.

 

Cooling methods are critical to preventing microbial growth, but conventional plate coolers, often used in dairy farms, have their own issues. They can encourage bacterial growth due to their structure, turning what should be a cooling process into a potential contamination risk.

 

Mostafa Radfar, who has years of experience in producing industrial cooling systems, developed the Super Turbo Chiller as a solution to these challenges after years of experimentation and an investment.

Radfar successfully launched the first prototype in 2020. Since then, over 20 units have been produced, capable of cooling up to 10 tons of milk per hour, addressing the needs of both small and large dairy operations.

 

The Super Turbo Chiller operates using a unique tube heat exchanger that ensures the milk stays free from clogs or fat buildup, keeping its microbial load in check without the need for harmful chemicals. This new system also reduces energy consumption by 70% compared to traditional methods, making it both more efficient and environmentally friendly.

 

Radfar’s device has been patented and verified by the Khorasan Razavi Science and Technology Park, and production has been relocated to Safadasht Industrial City, strategically placed near major dairy hubs. This homegrown innovation not only enhances milk safety but also supports job creation, with up to 20 direct employees working on the project.

 

By addressing both the microbial risks and energy inefficiencies in dairy farms, Radfar’s Super Turbo Chiller is reshaping the future of milk cooling, offering a safer, more sustainable alternative for the industry.
