India today is already the worlds’ largest producer of milk but the country is not a dominant force in the world market of milk and milk products. The growth potential of Indian Dairy Industry is enormous and challenges exist in improving the efficiency level and quality in complete chain of milk processing at every stage. The production of quality milk and milk products begins on the farm and continues through further handling, processing, packaging and distribution. One of the most important tasks amongst the quality control is to control and follow up regularly the fulfilment of quality standards at every stage of process flow in order to guarantee the best possible quality of end products through technological advancements. Engineering interventions have vital role to play in achieving this objective. Milk production, reception, processing, packaging, quality assurance, storage and distribution have been selected for engineering interventions for technological advancement in dairy industry.
