Clean-in-place (CIP)
CIP is used to clean pipes, tanks, and filtration systems. Its chief advantage is cleaning without disassembly. However it requires good circulation for effective cleaning. Typically the cleaning solution is circulated slowly for at least one-half hour - while several hours are necessary for large systems. Then follows thorough rinsing. Also spray clean-in-place is possible.
