ESC is the preferred supplier of SINGLE TANK SINGLE USE CIP (STSU) systems to three successive design/install engineering and marketing companies. These skids, and the associated control systems were designed to accomplish wash recycle of a vessel with only the water required to fill the CIPS/R piping, and a minimal puddle in the vessel being cleaned. Tank (vessel) circuit balancing problems were totally eliminated by placing the CIP return and supply pumps in series in a closed loop with only one tank puddle to control.
The benefits included minimal water, chemicals, and time required for filling the circuit, heating and discharging spent solution to drain, and most importantly, the control of chemical concentration which was achieved by making up the smallest possible volume of solution, and using it only once, thus cleaning every circuit in a facility with fresh solution. The SingleTank Tangential Return (STTR) skid can nearly match the water requirements of the by-pass system while enabling also the disengagement of air in the CIPR flow. Multi-Tank Single-Use CIP (MTSU) skids may be fitted with a larger solution tank for applications requiring the added capability of single-pass cleaning required for absolute protection against cross contamination by possible product residuals on the CIP equipment.
