The method of the invention is characterized in that in the first phase the device installation is filled with processed liquid product, yielding a low pressure zone and then the processed liquid product is introduced under high pressure into the cavitation process, where moving at a rate of not less than 3 m/s and under pressure of not less than 20 bar is introduced to the cavitation and rotation location of the separated streams of the processed liquid product, which rotating in the further part, in the longitudinal axis of the cavitator, move in the opposite directions, resulting in differential pressure leading to cavitation process with effects characteristic for sterilization and homogenization with heterogeneous parameters, wherein in the next phase a separation takes place into a liquid product, which has a particle size larger than 600 nm and a liquid product which has a particle size smaller than 600 nm, wherein the liquid product of larger particle size is directed to cooling and complementary cavitation reprocessing, and the liquid product of smaller particle size is subjected to particle size analysis control, by which the liquid product, which meets the preset parameters, is directed to the finished product acceptance, and the liquid product which does not meet the acceptance criteria is sent to the next reprocessing.

The invention relates to a continuous process for freezing a flow of aqueous material in liquid form and moving the aqueous material through at least one tube from an inlet of the tube to an outlet of the tube so as to form a breakable or cuttable frozen extrusion without bursting the tube. The process creates an extruded material that comprises liquid aqueous material entrapped between frozen aqueous material to self-lubricate the extrusion as it moves through the tube. An apparatus for carrying out the process of the invention is also provided.

An apparatus and method for cooling down milk in a milk cooling apparatus, where the milk cooling apparatus includes a coolant circuit with a milk cooling heat exchanger for heat exchange between milk and the coolant, and also includes a chiller with a refrigerant circuit for heat exchange between a refrigerant and the coolant, where the method includes measuring an OUT-temperature of the coolant upstream of the milk cooling heat exchanger and downstream a coolant cooling heat exchanger, and operating one or more compressors based on the measured OUT-temperature to minimize a difference between the measured OUT-temperature and a desired OUT-temperature, and also measuring an IN-temperature of the coolant upstream the coolant cooling heat exchanger and downstream the milk cooling heat exchanger, where the method configures how many compressors of the one or more compressors being active at a certain OUT-temperature based on the measured IN-temperature.
