The Problem
A brewery in northeast Mexico producing 2,000 beer cans per minute needed to stop production for one hour every day for off-line filler cleanings. The cleaning consisted of applying foam, rinsing it off with water, and running a mechanical cleaner to remove biological and fungal growth.
The Solution
ChemTreat worked with the customer to apply our innovative FillerScrub™ technology, which cleans the system without taking it off-line. Off-line cleanings are still required, but no longer need to occur as frequently.
The Results
After implementing FillerScrub™, the customer was able to reduce off-line cleaning time by 60%. As a result, water consumption was also reduced from 120m3 to 30m3 per month. The time saved in daily cleanings will allow for the production of an additional 48,000 cans of beer per day.
