Bubble enhanced cleaning method and chemistry

This invention describes a way to clean industrial equipment, like tanks and heat exchangers, using a two-step chemical process. One of the cleaning solutions contains ingredients, specifically carbon dioxide producing salts, that react with the dirt to produce tiny gas bubbles directly on and within the grime. These bubbles physically disrupt the dirt, making it easier to wash away, especially for tough baked-on food residues or brewery soils.

Why it matters: Since 2008, industrial cleaning has increasingly focused on reducing chemical usage, water, and energy. This bubble-enhanced method could offer a more efficient way to tackle stubborn soils, potentially allowing for milder chemical formulations or lower operating temperatures, aligning with modern sustainability goals.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SimpleChemical formulation, standard CIP equipment
