Cycle Cip Cleaning Station
Clean-in-place (CIP) is a method of cleaning the interior surfaces of pipes, vessels, process equipment, filters and associated fittings, without disassembly.
A typical CIP cycle consists of many steps which often include (in order):
Pre-rinse with WFI (water for injection) or PW (purified water) which is performed to wet the interior surface of the tank and remove residue. It also provides a non-chemical pressure test of the CIP flow path.
Caustic solution single pass flush through the vessel to drain. Caustic is the main cleaning solution.
Caustic solution re-circulation through the vessel.
Intermediate WFI or PW rinse
Acid solution wash - used to remove mineral precipitates and protein residues.
Final rinse with WFI or PW - rinses to flush out residual cleaning agents.
Final air blow - used to remove moisture remaining after CIP cycle.
Critical parameters must be met and remain within the specification for the duration of the cycle. If the specification is not reached or maintained, cleaning will not be ensured and will have to be repeated. Critical parameters include temperature, flow rate/supply pressure, chemical concentration, chemical contact time, and final rinse conductivity (which shows that all cleaning chemicals have been removed).
