While you are satisfied with your current clean-in-place (CIP) systems within your food and beverage manufacturing plants, there are some optional features outlined below to improve the CIP process while being more environmentally friendly, improving process equipment longevity, minimize water usage, and maximize the product recovery. As process contractors in food and beverage facilities, Placer Process is experienced in modifying you existing clean-in-place (CIP) systems to incorporate one, some, or all of these features to improve your current sanitation practices. Below are some suggestions on CIP system improvements that can be beneficial to your processes:
- Intermediate Wash Water Reuse:
- Reusing intermediate wash water for effective pre-rinsing in a three-tank CIP system.
- Benefits include water savings, preheating the system, and aiding chemical cleaning.
- Acid Wash for Scale Removal:
- Using acid washing to dissolve mineral scale and protein residues.
- Acid is commonly used for scale removal and pH stabilization.
- Caution for materials compatibility is needed to avoid damaging elastomers.
- Dedicated chemical pump and lines can be added to the existing CIP system to provide this additional chemical as part of the sanitation routine at a predetermined frequency.
- Product Recovery and Cleaning Improvement:
- Pushing out residual product using a product recovery system before pre-rinse.
- Benefits include increased product yield, reduced pre-rinse time, better soil removal, and reduced chemical usage.
- Air Blow for Moisture Removal:
- Performing an air blow step after the final rinse to remove remaining moisture.
- Important for products sensitive to dilution or moisture.
