W h a t is a Cleaning in Place S y s t e m ? Cleaning in place m ea n s t h a t the equipment c a n be cleaned and sanitized without being dismantled. In food and beverage processing industries integrated clean in place (CIP) solution play an essential role. Sordi can offer both semi automatic and fully automated CIP

Correct cleaning of food processing plants is a basic requirement to produce food: - healthy, this means to be safely consumed - durable, this means suitable to stay on the market for the requested time (shelf-life) The whole cleaning operation in the food sector is called SANITIZATION and it can be composed of 2 main phases: CLEANING DISINFECTION Cleaning MUST absolutely be made before the disinfection phase. Both cleaning and disinfection eliminate only vegetative cells, not the spores.

Cle a ning The cleaning cycle in a dairy and beverage line has the following step: • Recovery of product residues • Pre-rinsing with water to remove loose dirt • C le a n in g wit h de t e r g e n t • Final rinsing Disinfection can be with chemical agent or thermal. If this step is included, there are two options: - the equipment should be kept with disinfectant during non production phase and/or - before starting production hot water can flow inside the p

Cleaning principles: CHEMICAL ENERGY • It is made by means of chemical products based on a limited number of active principles. caustic detergent: It is usually caustic soda (NaOH) • Acid detergent: It is usually nitric acid (HNO3) THERMAL ENERGY DETERGENTS: • min temp: +45  50°C (under these values it starts fats solidification) • max temp: +65  70°C (over these values it starts proteins denaturation) KINETIC ENERGY CIP (Cleaning In Place) it applies the turbulence motion of cleaning media. • Ideal speed 1,5 2,0 m/sec • Result is strictly bound to the plant design and installation • Typical...

Suggested example of Cleaning Program STEP Water cold rinsing Hot water rinsing Soda recycling TIME ~ 5 minutes ~ 10 minutes ~ 20 minutes ACTIVITES To remove loose dirt ~ 50-55 °C to eliminate sugar and dirt NaOH at 2/2.5% at ~ 60-65 °C mainly to remove fats Rinsing of alcaline solution Acid recycling HNO3 at 2/2.5 % at ~ 50-55 °C Mainly to remove proteins Rinsing of acid solution Final rinsing with cold water ~ 50-55 °C with or without disinfectant at around 0.

• Multi use detergents • Composition of the detergents solution can be optimized for different circuit • Solution is recovered • Conductivity control • Temperature, time, concentration of detergent adjustable • Flow rate control (if required) • Turbidity control (if required) • Sanitizer addition (if required) • Stabilization (if required) • Single use detergents • Composition of the detergents solution can be optimized for a certain circuit • Solution is considered finished after the first use • Temperature, time control and adjustable • Conductiv
