Reuse Limits and Regeneration of Solutions for Cleaning Dairy Equipment

Reuse Limits and Regeneration of Solutions for Cleaning Dairy Equipment

Usable life of cleaning solutions in a model heat processing unit was studied by evaluation of the nature and quantity of residue remaining on the surface of the equipment after cleaning. Lipoidal residue was recovered from equipment surfaces by ether rinsing. A surface displacement technique was used to quantify the lipoidal material, which was characterized by gas-liquid chromatographic analy...

Cleaning patch-clamp pipettes for immediate reuse

Patch-clamp recording has enabled single-cell electrical, morphological and genetic studies at unparalleled resolution. Yet it remains a laborious and low-throughput technique, making it largely impractical for large-scale measurements such as cell type and connectivity characterization of neurons in the brain. Specifically, the technique is critically limited by the ubiquitous practice of manu...

Dust Collector Systems and Equipment for Air Cleaning

In general terms a fabric filter system consists of a porous flexible layer of textile material through which a dusty gas is passed to separate particles from the gas stream. Deposits on the textile are removed periodically by powerful moving and thereby cleaning of the cloth to maintain the pressure drop across the filter within practical operating limits. There are several methods to make the...

Forward osmosis membrane fouling and cleaning for wastewater reuse

Membrane fouling properties and different physical cleaning methods for forward osmosis (FO) and reverse osmosis (RO) laboratory-scale filtration systems were investigated. The membrane fouling, with respect to flux reduction, was lower in FO than in RO when testing an activated sludge effluent. Crossflow velocity, air-scouring, osmotic backwashing and effect of a spacer were compared to determ...
