This document discusses various methods of cleaning equipment, including foam/manual cleaning, high pressure cleaning, clean in place (CIP), clean out of place (COP), and mechanical cleaning. It also outlines factors that influence the cleaning process, such as soil type, contact time, temperature, and chemical concentrations. CIP is used to clean tank and pipeline interiors by circulating a chemical solution, while COP requires disassembly for cleaning removed parts in a circulation tank. Mechanical cleaning uses friction, and factors like longer contact time and higher temperatures help cleaning solutions better remove soils.
4. 3.Clean In Place (CIP) – is utilized
to clean the interiorsurfaces of
tanksand pipelines of liquid
process equipment.
A chemical solution is circulated
through a circuit of tanksand or
linesthen return to a central
reservoir allowing the chemical
solution to be reused.
6. 5. Mechanical – it normally
involves the use of brush
either by hand or a machine
such as a floor scrubber.
Mechanical cleaning uses
friction for food soil removal..
8. Factors that influence the
cleaning process
• Soil –The food residues
require complete removal
during the cleaning process.
The types of food soil will
affect the cleaning compound
used, along with the method
of cleaning
9. Factors that influence the
cleaning process
• Time –The longer a cleaning
solution remains in contact
with the equipment surface it
means the greater the amount
of food soil will remove.
10. Factors that influence the
cleaning process
• Temperature –In the
presence of a cleaning
solution most soils become
more readily soluble as the
temperature increases.
11. Factors that influence the
cleaning process
• Chemical concentrations – It
varies depending on the types
of chemical, type of food soil,
and the equipment to be
cleaned.
