– should it have to be discarded – first needs to be brought up to the right temperature and then dosed with new chemicals each time . There ’ s thus constant filtration during filling and only the exact same amount of fresh water or caustic is added as is lost through the removed labels , for instance . At the same time , owing to specific process parameters that have a high risk of forming deposits , the caustic temperature at BAD MEINBERGER has been lowered through close cooperation with the laboratory . “ Most beverage producers use higher temperatures but that ’ s not our intention ,” Mühlenweg states . “ In view of the high costs for heat generation , at the moment our sector is undergoing a rethink . Lots of colleagues could follow our lead here .”
Gareis totally agrees and not only sees deposits being greatly reduced and intervals between cleaning cycles becoming longer for both current and future KHS customers thanks to Dynamic Biofilm Protection but also potential for saving on energy and resources .
