Why set up a beverage plant need CIP system?

The juice and carbonated beverage have a lager market now, and more people want to set up a juice plant and carbonated drink plant. So what is CIP system and why you need a CIP system? Comark Machinery can provide the most complete technology and professional services. The following is the introduction of the CIP system.

CIP is the abbreviation for clean in place or in-place cleaning. It is defined as: without disassembling or moving the device, you can use a high-temperature, high-concentration cleaning solution to exert a strong effect on the device to clean the food contact surface.

Therefore, CIP means that scrubbing, cleaning and sterilization can be performed without disassembling mechanical devices and pipelines. In the cleaning process, it can reasonably handle the relationship between washing, cleaning, sterilization and economy, energy saving, etc. It is an optimized cleaning management technology. The CIP device is suitable for multi-pipe sterilization mechanical devices in direct contact with fluid materials, such as juice beverages, dairy products, carbonated beverage, and soy milk. The use of CIP cleaning is a commonly used method in beverage production plants and is a guarantee of product quality. The purpose of cleaning is to remove the residues on the equipment and pipe wall to ensure that the sanitary indicators are reached. Under normal circumstances, it must be cleaned once for 6∽8h continuous use. In special cases, when the production capacity is found to be significantly reduced, it should be cleaned immediately.

The purpose of cleaning is to remove the dirt adhering to the machine to prevent the growth of microorganisms. To remove the dirt, the cleaning system must be able to provide the cleaning capacity needed to overcome the contaminants. There are three sources of cleaning ability, namely the kinetic energy generated from the flow of the cleaning liquid, the chemical energy generated from the detergent, and the heat energy in the cleaning liquid. These three capabilities have complementary effects. At the same time, the factor of ability is related to the factor of time. In the same state, the longer the washing time, the better the washing effect.

CIP has the following advantages:

(1) It can maintain a certain cleaning effect to improve the safety of the product;

(2) Save operation time and improve efficiency, save labor and ensure operation safety, and save cleaning water and steam;

(3) Stable hygiene level, saving the amount of cleaning agent;

(4) The production equipment can be large-scaled and the automation level is high;

(5) Increase the durability of production equipment.
