Washing, Rinsing, and Drying

摘要

Because cleaning systems have three functionally separate activities, I suggest investing some time and effort to identify and evaluate your washing, rinsing, and drying steps. If a new cleaning system is on the horizon, allow a budget for engineering design, process evaluation, and capital equipment for each of the three steps. Benefits of customizing and optimizing the washing, rinsing, and drying steps for your application include: decreased process time; decreased reject rate; a higher quality product; a lean, rugged process; lower process costs; increased product quality; improved employee safety; and minimum environmental compliance impact.
