Powdered milk production, organic

The organic dairy sector has modelled itself on the conventional dairy world in that it is represented in every feature of the dairy supermarket. From yogurt to milk, from cottage cheese to cheddar, from butter to powdered milk, there is an organic counterpart to each conventional product. The farms range in size from 9 cows to 1000, from family owned and operated to corporate enterprises. 

Chlorobiphenyls (CBs) are used widely by industry, including transformers and capacitors in the electrical industry and inks, paints and paper in the printing and allied industries. Unwanted polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) formulations and waste materials containing PCBs are normally incinerated. However, PCBs and waste products containing these materials are inadvertently or illegally disposed of at dump sites and landfill sites. Unsealed PCB sources are leached into the terrestrial and aquatic environment and incomplete combustion vaporises these compounds into the atmosphere therefore, they enter the wider global cycle of trace organic compounds and ubiquitous environmental contaminants that occur in bovine milk, milk powders and products as a result of intake via animal feed.
