Cleaning in place with onsite-generated electrolysed oxidizing water for water-saving disinfection in breweries

The use of acid electrolysed water (AcEW) is a relatively new sanitizing technique for brewery equipment. Experiments showed that a 30% AcEW (a free chlorine concentration of above 17mg/L) was a sufficient and effective alternative to conventional sanitizers such as peracetic acid (2%). On the basis of the results of industrial-scale clean-in-place tests, an effective AcEW-based clean-in-place ...

The use of aqueous ozone for cleaning operations in breweries Ozone clean in place in food industries - ozone as an alternative sanitising agent for cleaning operations in food industry

The production of beer is characterized by the consumption of large volumes of fresh water. Whereas, cleaning operations are the highest water consumption demanding activities in breweries. Commonly “Cleaning In Place” (CIP) systems are used in closed processing lines. These consist of automatic cleaning and disinfection programs based on a succession of several solutions of water, cleaning che...

Respiratory symptoms and bronchial responsiveness among cleaning and disinfecting workers in the food industry.

OBJECTIVES To measure the levels of exposure to nitrogen trichloride (NCl3) and aldehydes among cleaning and disinfecting workers in the atmosphere of food industry plants during cleaning and disinfecting operations, and to examine how they relate to irritant and chronic respiratory symptoms-which are indices of pulmonary function-and bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) to methacholine. METHO...

Clinical and antimicrobial efficacy of NitrAdineTM-based disinfecting cleaning tablets in complete denture wearers

OBJECTIVE This study evaluated the efficacy of NitrAdine ™-based disinfecting cleaning tablets for complete denture, in terms of denture biofilm removal and antimicrobial action. MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty complete denture wearers (14 men and 26 women) with a mean age of 62.3 ± 9.0 years were randomly assigned to two groups and were instructed to clean their dentures according to two methods:...
