When looking for water and energy savings, Cleaning in Place (CIP) is a good place to start. On average, 20% of the energy consumption at a food and beverage plant is used for CIP. Hence, the savings potential is big when replacing legacy components with next-generation technology that saves on both water and energy.

Tank cleaning is one of the processes that accounts for massive consumption of water during CIP. And not only that. The amount of electricity used for pumping, heating, recovery, reuse and treatment of the tank cleaning water is equally high.

Three different tank cleaning devices: static spray ball, rotary spray head and rotary jet head.

Upgrading the tank cleaning equipment minimises CIP time, costs and staffing requirements. Simple upgrades that require no additional changes to the tank cleaning

installation help maximise productivity. This means higher throughput without investing in new production lines.

Reducing the amount of water used for CIP also relieves the pressure on the water treatment plant and ensures capacity for higher volumes without extending the treatment plant.
