A team of lecturers from Wijaya Putra University (UWP) Surabaya showed proof of the success of their innovative project through quality and safety tests on cow's milk pasteurization machines. To prove the results, they not only tested technically, but also shared the results of processed cow's milk with Jujitsu athletes at the Wijaya Putra Dojo, a step that directly connected technology and the nutritional needs of the community.

This project was carried out carefully by the UWP Community Service Team, aiming to ensure that the pasteurization machine they created was capable of producing high quality cow's milk products that were safe for consumption.

Slamet Riyadi, ST., MT., Team Leader explained that the testing was carried out according to Food and Drug Supervisory Agency (BPOM) standards Number 13 of 2019, and the results showed the product was safe for consumption.

"We have carried out three important tests at the SGS Indonesia Test Center, including ISO 4833, ISO 6579:2017/AMD 1:2020, and ISO 21528," explained Slamet.

"We received the results with Test Report: ID174296, which shows that this milk product meets the established safety standards." he said.

With a production capacity of up to 50 liters per hour or around 400 liters per day, this pasteurization machine is expected to be a practical solution for local farmers and small industries who want to improve the quality of their products.

Slamet also added that his team was very proud of this achievement. "We want to celebrate this success by sharing the results of processed milk with Jujitsu Dojo Wijaya Putra athletes. Milk is an important source of nutrition for those who need energy and strength, so this is the right way to test the results of our products while providing direct benefits to the community. " he explained.

Apart from Slamet Riyadi, this team also consists of Ong Andre Wahju Rijanto, ST., MT., who acts as project supervisor and Dean of the UWP Faculty of Engineering, and Mochammad Muchid, ST., MM., IPM, who is responsible for product design and analysis or the design and product analysis team from Multiple Design Product. It is hoped that this team collaboration will open up new opportunities in milk processing technology in Indonesia.

This pasteurization machine project is not only an innovation in the agricultural industry, but also shows how technology can significantly improve people's quality of life.

This step by the UWP team is proof that collaboration between academics and the community can produce broad positive impacts.
