Helping Ethanol Plants Get the CIP Results They Need to Maximize Output
Household & Commercial Products Association (HCPA) 2020 Innovation Award winner in both Sustainability and Game Changer categories.
Ferm Batch Quality
Impact:
- Helps decrease glycerol in fermenters, impacting ethanol yield
- Reduces added sodium that can impact yeast health
- Can significantly lower process levels of organics
- Components have been Third-party evaluated and determined GRAS for animal feed*
Process Consistency
Impact:
- Ability to run process equipment longer prior to fouling
- Cut down on unintended
foam overs - Minimizes potential to shut down due to pH swings
- Quickly penetrates, suspends and rinses soils to maintain clean processing equipment
Operational Savings
Impact:
- Run at reduced temperature to help reduce water heating cost
- Decreases waste and energy use in plants that send CIP waste to dryers for evaporation
-
Reduces need for neutralization acid compared to caustic cleaning
The Trimeta Alternative pH CIP Process:
1: Pre-Rinse
4: Circulate
(With cooler recirc pump)
2: pH Check
(CIP tank pH test)
5: Return
(Wash back to CIP tank)
3: Wash
(Send solution to ferms)
6: Soak
(Until plant back online)

Providing the Value of a Total Cleaning Partnership
Ecolab has a long-standing business model of “finding a customer need and filling it.” Three years ago, when Ecolab was looking for new ways to fuel continued growth, the Ecolab team began looking at other market segments that used CIP processes; a cleaning technology Ecolab invented more than 50 years ago.
