|
Factors Affecting Cleaner Effectiveness
|
Type of soil
Amt. of soil Temp/conc of cleaner Contact time |
|
heavy fat and oil deposits
burned/dried deposits Food waste deposits Protein waste deposits Mineral hard water deposits heavy mineral deposits |
Strongly alkaline
Strong alkaline Moderately alkaline chlorinated mildly acid cleaners strong acid |
|
Sanitizing
|
treatment of a cleaned surface with a chemical or physical agent to destroy disease/spoilage causing organisms.
are used at relatively low concentrations to reduce total vegatative cell pop. to a safe level |
|
Criteria for a chemical sanitizer
|
-produces fast microbial kill (5-log reduction)
-non toxic -deliverable -cost effective -safe to handle |
|
Halogen sanitizers
|
Chlorine
Iodine Quat |
|
Chlorine
|
Advantages
-Broad spectrum bacterocide -available in different states -most economical Disadvantages: - very corrosive - deteriorates easily - |
|
Chlorine dosage
|
amt of chlorine added to h20 (ppm)
|
|
Chlorine demand
|
amt of chlorine reacting w h2o impurities
|
|
Residual chlorine
|
remaining chlroine after the demand of h2o and any impurities has been satisfied
|
|
Iodophors
|
Advantages
-broad spectrum -less irritating -low toxicity -stable Disadvantages: - staining porous and plastic materials -poor activity against bacteriophages |
|
Quat
|
advantages
-good foaming and penetrating power -forms bacteriostatic film on surface disadvantages -long bacteriostatic residual -limited activity against gram negs |
|
peroxy compounds
|
advantages
-low foaming -no residue -broad spectrum Disadvantages -corrosive -losses effectivess if water is >0.2ppm |
|
Acid Anionics
|
advantages
-stable -non corrosive disadvantages -high cost -irritant |
|
Carboxylic Acid
|
Advantages
-low foaming -broad spectrum -low cost disadvantages -limited activity against fungi -corrosive |
|
ClO2
|
Properties
-soluble in cold water -must be generated on site Advantages -strong oxidizer -less corrosive disadvantages -saftey toxcity |
|
O3 (ozone)
|
Properities
-kills by lysis phenomenon Advantages -broad spectrum disadvantages -unstable -safety issues -cost |
|
UV
|
Properties
-mechanical disinfectant -energy destroys cells DNA molecules advantages: -activity independent of ph and temp -no residual taste or color Disadvantages -poor penetration -safety issues -bacterial regrowth |
|
Comparative costs for water treatment
|
UV -least
ClO2 - medium O3 - most (most useful) |
