Our CIP/SIP services provide an internal cleaning method for your water treatment equipment. These methods clean the surface of pipes, water treatment equipment, filters and all other components of the treatment system.
CIP (Clean-in-place)
Cleaning-in-place (CIP) is a systematic approach to cleaning the internal surfaces of water treatment equipment without dismantling it. This process removes accumulated physical and chemical debris, such as scale, biofilms and other contaminants, which can reduce system efficiency and water quality. CIP helps extend equipment life, prevent breakdowns and reduce the likelihood of bacterial growth.
SIP (Sterilization-in-place)
The on-site disinfection process (SIP) is typically used after a CIP to further disinfect water treatment equipment and eliminate any remaining harmful microorganisms. It consists of applying a chemical disinfectant solution to the internal surfaces of the equipment to destroy bacteria, viruses and other harmful microorganisms. This process ensures that the water treatment system reliably delivers clean, safe, high-quality water to its consumers.
Heat
Heat sanitization-in-place (SIP) and heat clean-in-place (CIP) are methods used to clean and disinfect water treatment equipment.
On-site thermal disinfection involves the use of high temperatures (typically above 80°C) to eliminate microorganisms on equipment and pipe surfaces. This process is usually carried out by circulating hot water or steam through the system. This method is effective in killing bacteria and viruses and is commonly used in the food and beverage industry to sanitize processing equipment.
Chemicals
A Clean-in-place (CIP) process provides a systematic approach for cleaning the internal surfaces of water treatment equipment without the need for disassembly. This process removes physical and chemical debris that builds up over time, such as scale, biofilms, and other contaminants, which can decrease system efficiency and water quality. A CIP can help increase equipment lifespan, prevent equipment failure, and reduce the likelihood of bacterial growth.
A Sanitize-in-place (SIP) process is typically used after a CIP to disinfect the water treatment equipment further and eliminate any remaining harmful microorganisms. It involves applying a chemical disinfectant solution to internal equipment surfaces to destroy harmful bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms. This process helps ensure that the water treatment system is reliably providing clean, safe, and high-quality water to its consumers.
Whether the treatment is carried out with your own equipment or with the equipment we provide, trust Durpro to maintain your water treatment equipment.
