The simplest forms of non-toxic cleaners used in food processing
industries are basically blends of mineral acids and inhibitors. Acid
circulation is considered effective in removal of encrusted proteins and
mineral deposits on heat treatment surfaces. HCL based cleaner for food
processing industries has gained immense popularity in recent years with
respect to CIP processes owing to its quick action, high
solubility and easy rinsability. It can be used directly to clean or as a
neutralizing solution after alkaline wash. It enhances removal of mineral
deposits like hard water scale, milk stone, beer stone etc. Typical concentrations in solutions range
from 30%-70% that require appropriate dilution before application based on
industry, equipment, nature of contamination, topography of surfaces to be
cleaned and application methods.
NALCLEAN 8940 is a
carefully designed hydrochloric acid based acid cleaner with proper corrosion inhibitors and surfactant chemicals and acts as
a low foaming cleaning liquid. It is a heavy duty formulation for complete
removal of difficult mineral and protein base soils, water scales, corrosive
depositions and hard deposits due to its surfactant
based enhanced deposit penetration capacity.
Product Benefits:
Attacks rust, scale and deposits; but
not base metal
Cleans complex equipment without
dismantling
Penetrates and disperses acid-soluble
deposits
Provides moderate foaming to minimize
acid fuming
NALCLEAN 8940 can quickly remove hardness scales and metal oxide
deposits from boilers, heat exchangers, condensers, evaporators, cooling
jackets, process vessels, piping and other equipment with metal parts where
chloride stress corrosion is not a factor, equipment commonly found in food
processing plants, dairy industry and beverage sector.. It is recommended for use as an acid cleaner in all departments & establishments operating under government meat, poultry and shell egg grading and egg products inspection
programs.
