A non-oxidizing, buffered disinfectant concentrate is provided to be included in a solution used to disinfect a membrane. The solution applied to the membrane is configured to have a pH that is compatible with the membrane. The disinfectant concentrate includes an aqueous solvent; a hydrotrope; a strong acid surface cleanser; a biocidal active, preferably, at least two biocidal actives; a buffer agent; and, optionally, an anionic surfactant. The biodical active may be selected to function both as a biocide and as a weak acid/buffer combination. A disinfectant solution applied to the membrane includes from about 0.1 wt % to about 3.5 wt % of this disinfectant concentrate.

Membrane disinfectant

A cleaning solution for accelerated cleaning of a membrane having an enzyme and an agent having a pH that is compatible with the enzyme. The cleaning solution may additionally include one or both of a binding agent and a surfactant. Once the cleaning solution has been included in a solution that is used to contact the membrane for a defined period of time, one or both of a binding agent and a reducing agent may be added to the solution that has contacted the membrane. Optionally, one or both of increasing a pH of the solution and increasing a temperature of the solution may be used to reduce an activity of the enzyme.

Membrane cleaning solution and method of accelerated membrane cleaning using the same

The present invention relates to a method of lubricating a conveyor belt, wherein a lubricant concentrate containing at least 0.1 wt-% of at least one free fatty acid and at least one corrosion inhibitor is employed as a dry lubricant in a dry lubrication process.

Method of lubricating a conveyor belt

The present invention relates to corrosion inhibitor systems, in particular to cleaning and corrosion inhibiting compositions for surfaces of aluminum or colored metals and alloys thereof under alkaline conditions, especially in the food and pharmaceutical industries. The cleaning and corrosion inhibiting compositions comprise as a corrosion inhibitor at least one alkyleneoxy alkylphosphate di- or triester having the general formula 

Cleaning and corrosion inhibition system and composition for surfaces of aluminum or colored metals and alloys thereof under alkaline conditions

The present invention relates to acidic sanitizing and/or cleaning compositions comprising a specific quaternary antimicrobial system consisting of C-Chydroxyalkyl carboxylic acids, C-Calkyl monocarboxylic acids, unsubstituted or substituted, saturated or unsaturated C-dicarboxylic acids and additional inorganic or organic acids. The compositions of the present invention can be present in the form of concentrates and in the form of diluted use solutions. They can be used in a process for sanitizing and/or cleaning hard surfaces, preferably in a cleaning-in-place (CIP) and/or sanitize-in-place (SIP) process for cleaning and/or sanitizing plants in the food, dairy, beverage, brewery and soft drink industries.

Sanitizing and cleaning composition and its use for sanitizing and/or cleaning hard surfaces

The present invention relates to corrosion inhibitor systems, in particular to cleaning and corrosion inhibiting compositions for surfaces of aluminum or colored metals and alloys thereof under alkaline conditions, especially in the food and pharmaceutical industries. The cleaning and corrosion inhibiting compositions comprise as a corrosion inhibitor at least one alkyleneoxy alkylphosphate di- or triester having the general formula (I) where Z is either &#x2014;O-M or &#x2014;O-(AO)&#x2014; Alkyl wherein M is an ammonium, alkali metal or alkaline earth metal cation, Alkyl is a C-Calkyl or alkylaryl group, AO is a C-alkylene oxide unit and n, nand neach are integers from 2 to 10. 

The present invention relates to acidic sanitizing and/or cleaning compositions comprising a specific quaternary antimicrobial system consisting of C1-C4 hydroxyalkyl carboxylic acids, C5-C18 alkyl monocarboxylic acids, unsubstituted or substituted, saturated or unsaturated C4-dicarboxylic acids and additional inorganic or organic acids. The compositions of the present invention can be present in the form of concentrates and in the form of diluted use solutions. They can be used in a process for sanitizing and/or cleaning hard surfaces, preferably in a cleaning-in-place (CIP) and/or sanitize-in-place (SIP) process for cleaning and/or sanitizing plants in the food, dairy, beverage, brewery and soft drink industries.
