Actually, he could have increased the flow rate by making the channel longer and putting in more tubes. Then it would get hit for a longer time but still be flowing fast enough to process the milk reasonably.
The only problem I can see is, what does the UV do to the fats and proteins in the milk? It would change them chemically, I'd think- basically cook them. Would it make the milk taste funny? Would it do Very Bad Things like start making prions? I think these would be questions that he'd have to answer before he could really do it anyway...
I have no idea what wavelength or intensity we use, other than that you really don't want to see them running, if you wish to see anything else in your life...
