| Case Study: Biofilm Control Strategies In Beverage And Dairy Processing | Bacterial biofilms cause a number of serious problems for industrial fluid processing operations. Mechanical blockages, impedance of heat transfer processes and biofilm induced corrosion result in billions of dollars of losses each year. Product spoilage and possible risk to public health are also consequences of biofilm-mediated contamination. This brief article will review aspects of biofilm control strategies for Clean-in-Place (CIP) in the beverage and dairy industries and introduce a promising disinfectant via case studies. By Susan B.

| Article: Finished Goods Warehouses Attached To Large Manufacturing Centers | Warehouses attached to manufacturing plants tend to have fewer SKU’s (200 to 500) and lots of palletized products per sku (1500 pallets for 1 sku). Such pallets are stored directly on the floor. This method is called ‘bulk storage’ in the USA and ‘block stack storage” in UK and Europe. By Karma Logistics Inc | 08/18/2010 | 1.02 MB |

| Application Note: Inductive Conductivity - CIP-Concentration Control In The Makeup System | The food & beverage industry has stringent requirements regarding the cleanliness of all equipment in contact with food products. Technically these requirements are fulfilled by means of a CIP-system. CIP stands for Clean-In-Place. That means that the reactors, pipes, and so on are cleaned in place, and are not disassembled and cleaned elsewhere. The latter might be necessary for some equipment, such as filters for example. CIP is preferable whenever it is possible, because it allows a much higher degree of automation. By Mettler-Toledo AG, Process Analytical, Inc. | 07/12/2010 | 115.6 KB |
