Definitions
- the present invention relates to a system comprising a plant for treating containers, preferably for filling containers with a filling product, and a central CIP plant for CIP treatment, in particular cleaning and/or sterilization, of the plant.
- the SIP process is subsumed here under the CIP process, i.e. the CIP process includes cleaning and/or sterilization.
- the cleaning medium for example water with caustic soda, nitric acid or peracetic acid
- the cleaning medium is prepared in the central CIP system, mixed in the correct concentration, heated if necessary and then conveyed to the system(s) to be cleaned.
- This requires flow, return and circulation steps to keep media mixing as low as possible.
- the preparation, mixing, storage, transport of the cleaning medium to the systems to be cleaned and any return of the cleaning medium are carried out using a pipe system, tanks, heat exchangers and other fluid technology devices that make up the central CIP system.
- the EP 2 786 811 A1 describes a device for supplying consumers with a cleaning and/or disinfection fluid, which can function as a central CIP system to supply several systems or devices.
- the cleaning of the several stations can only be done one after the other. Unscheduled cleaning, such as targeted interim cleaning, is not possible or is only possible with difficulty, as a certain lead time is required due to the size and utilization of planned cleaning processes of the central CIP system.
- One object of the invention is to improve the CIP treatment, in particular cleaning and/or sterilization, of a system for treating containers, preferably for filling containers with a filling product, in particular to carry out the CIP treatment more efficiently, flexibly and/or in a more resource-saving manner.
- the system according to the invention has at least one system for treating containers, also referred to herein as a “system” or “container treatment system”, preferably for filling containers with a filling product.
- the container treatment system takes place in particular Used in food processing, it is preferably a beverage filling system, for example for filling water (still or carbonated), soft drinks, juice, beer, mixed drinks and the like.
- the container treatment system is particularly preferably a can filler, which can also be equipped with a can seamer.
- the system has a central CIP system which is in fluid communication with the container treatment system and is set up to supply the container treatment system with a treatment fluid for CIP treatment.
- the CIP treatment is primarily maintenance or cleaning measures, including, for example, cleaning and/or disinfecting and/or sterilizing and/or rinsing surfaces of the system.
- the central CIP system can be set up to at least partially produce the treatment fluid, for example by mixing a sodium hydroxide solution, nitric acid or peracetic acid.
- the central CIP system can be set up to obtain the treatment fluid from an external device and to store it in one or more suitable tanks for later use.
- the system further comprises a CIP module which is different from the central CIP system and is also in fluid communication with the container treatment system or is even part of the container treatment system and is designed to supply the container treatment system with a treatment fluid for a CIP treatment, preferably cleaning and/or sterilization.
- the treatment fluids which can be provided by the CIP module can be identical to, overlap with or differ from those which can be provided by the central CIP system.
- the CIP module can be set up to at least partially produce the treatment fluid, for example by mixing a caustic soda, nitric acid or peracetic acid.
- the CIP module can be set up to obtain the treatment fluid from an external facility, for example the central CIP system, and to store it in one or more suitable tanks for later use.
- the term “the treatment fluid” (singular) is often referred to here.
- both the central CIP system and the CIP module can be set up to provide several different treatment fluids, for example to carry out sterilization and a subsequent rinsing process.
- a CIP treatment including cleaning and/or disinfection and/or sterilization, etc.
- a CIP treatment can be carried out independently of the central CIP system.
- the CIP module in particular enables unscheduled treatment, for example intermediate cleaning and/or intermediate sterilization, which can take place during regular operation of the container treatment system without product-carrying paths having to be pushed out, pre-rinsed or cleaned.
- the use of the CIP module assigned to the container treatment system reduces any cross-contamination with other container treatment systems.
- the central CIP system is preferably set up to supply a plurality of systems for treating containers with a treatment fluid for CIP treatment, in particular cleaning and/or sterilization.
- the system preferably comprises a plurality of systems for treating containers, in particular for filling containers with a beverage, the central CIP system being in fluid communication with the plurality of systems.
- the central CIP system differs from the CIP module in that it is designed to supply a plurality of container treatment systems with corresponding treatment fluids, while the CIP module is assigned to exactly one system.
- the CIP module can, for example, also treat the container treatment system if the central CIP system is scheduled to treat another system and is not currently available.
- the CIP module is more compact than the central CIP system and/or is located closer to the container treatment system than the central CIP system.
- the CIP module can also be part of the container treatment system. Due to the proximity or direct connection of the CIP module, the treatment medium can be quickly accessed when required, it can be made available to the container treatment system promptly and used immediately. This facilitates intermediate treatment during production or during regular operation of the container treatment system.

- the system preferably has a filler, preferably in the form of a rotary filler, with filling elements that are set up to fill the containers with a filling product.
- the filler is particularly preferably set up to fill cans.
- the use of an assigned CIP module in addition to the central CIP system is particularly suitable for can fillers, since these have comparatively high product losses due to the pressed filling and closing and thus an increased risk of contamination of the cans and surfaces in the isolator. An unscheduled, quickly carried out intermediate treatment, in particular external cleaning, increases the productivity of the system.
- the system preferably has at least one internal treatment inlet which is in fluid communication with the CIP module and/or the central CIP system and is set up to introduce the treatment fluid of the CIP module and/or the central CIP system for internal treatment into product or media-carrying channels of the system, in particular into the filling elements.
- the internal treatment inlet enables internal treatment to be carried out independently of external treatment, which means that the treatment of the system can be carried out in a more targeted and flexible manner.
- the system has a drainage system which is designed to at least partially drain the treatment fluid of the CIP module and/or the central CIP system after the CIP treatment. to the CIP module and/or the central CIP system.
- the treatment fluids can be removed, especially when the isolator is closed, and the container treatment system can be quickly returned to an operating state after CIP treatment.
- the CIP module and/or the central CIP system can be set up for complete or partial reuse of the treatment fluids, which means that CIP treatment can be carried out in a particularly resource-efficient manner.
- the CIP module and the central CIP system are preferably connected to the system via one or more CIP connections, with the CIP module and the central CIP system particularly preferably each being connected to the system via a CIP connection.
- CIP connections preferably each being connected to the system via a CIP connection.
- the functionality can alternatively or additionally be implemented by appropriate treatment circuits with valves and the like.
- the CIP module is connected to the treatment nozzles via a first CIP connection and is separated or separable from the treatment circuit for internal treatment, for example by one or more valves, whereby external treatment can be implemented by the CIP module during regular production in a structurally simple manner is.
- the internal treatment inlet is preferably connected to the central CIP system and/or the CIP module via a second CIP connection.
- the CIP module in conjunction with separate treatment circuits enables the surfaces and, if necessary, the cans or can lids to be treated quickly and without major product losses, essentially during regular production. Product paths do not have to be pushed out, rinsed and cleaned, which leads to significant time savings. Any cooling of the treatment fluid is also not necessary. Thanks to the direct connection to the CIP module, the treatment fluid can be available promptly and used directly.
- the system includes a CIP treatment controller configured to control the CIP treatment.
- the treatment process comprising, for example, an intermediate treatment by the CIP module, is controlled by the CIP treatment control, which runs through a suitable treatment program for this purpose and the corresponding The intended values of the circulating treatment fluid, such as temperature, pressure, etc., are monitored using suitable sensors.
- the treatment process can be carried out programmably by the CIP treatment controller.
- the communication between the CIP treatment control and the corresponding components of the system can be wired or wireless, digital or analog. Communication does not necessarily have to involve an exchange of information in both directions. A unidirectional data and/or signal flow falls under the term “communication”.
- the CIP treatment control does not necessarily have to be formed by a central computing device or electronic control, but rather includes decentralized and/or multi-stage systems, control networks, cloud systems and the like.
- the CIP treatment control can also be an integral part of a higher-level system control or communicate with one.
- the CIP treatment control is set up in such a way that the external treatment, to be carried out in particular by the CIP module, takes place or can take place during regular operation of the system.
- the Figure 1 shows schematically a system 1 with a system 10 for treating containers (not shown in the figures), a CIP module 20 and a central CIP system 30.
- the system 10 is used in particular in food processing; it is preferably a beverage bottling system, for example for bottling water (still or carbonated), soft drinks, juice, beer, mixed drinks and the like.
- the system 10 can also be designed for other container treatment, for example for closing filled containers, producing containers (stretch bubbles), cleaning containers, etc.
- the system 10 particularly preferably includes a can filler and can sealer.
- the system 10 has a schematically indicated isolator 11, which is also referred to as a “clean room” and which provides a space that is essentially closed off from the environment.
- the insulator 11 is provided by insulator walls, usually made of stainless steel, which surround and thus form the closed space.
- the isolator 11 provides a defined and germ-free atmosphere to enable aseptic treatment of the containers. This is important, for example, when filling easily perishable foods or foods that are to be stored for a long time.
- the individual components for treating the containers are accommodated in the isolator 11.
- a filling carousel for continuously filling containers, transport stars for transporting the containers to be filled and the filled containers, a sealer for sealing the filled containers with a container seal each, and the like are provided in the isolator 11.
- treatment nozzles 12 are installed in the isolator 11, which are used to introduce a treatment fluid, such as a cleaning agent, sterile air and/or a sterilizing agent. are set up.
- a treatment fluid such as a cleaning agent, sterile air and/or a sterilizing agent.
- the treatment nozzles 12 shown are external nozzles which apply the treatment fluid to the freely accessible surfaces in the insulator 11.
- the CIP treatment of the freely accessible surfaces inside the insulator is also referred to herein as “external treatment”.
- CIP treatment In order to linguistically distinguish the treatment of containers by the system 10 (filling, closing, etc.) from the treatment (cleaning, sterilization, etc.) of system components, the latter is also referred to herein as CIP treatment.
- a CIP treatment, in particular cleaning and/or sterilization, of the inner surfaces, for example the surfaces of product-carrying channels, media-carrying channels, filling valves, etc., is referred to as "internal treatment".
- an internal treatment inlet 13 is provided, via which the treatment fluid is introduced into the product- or media-carrying channels.
- a filler 15 in the form of a rotary filler is shown by way of example, which has schematically indicated filling elements 16, by means of which a filling product is introduced into the respective containers to be filled during filling operation. At least the filling elements 16 of the filler 15 are accommodated in the insulator 11.
- the treatment fluid can flow through the filling product-carrying areas of the filler 15 and treat them, for example clean and/or sterilize and/or rinse them.
- the treatment fluid therefore also flows through the filling product-carrying areas of the filling elements 16 located in the insulator 11. In this way, an internal treatment of the filler 15 is carried out.
- the external treatment and the internal treatment can be carried out simultaneously or at different times. Furthermore, the treatment fluids for the external treatment and the internal treatment can be the same or different, depending on the requirements.
- the treatment nozzles 12 and/or the internal treatment inlet 13 are in fluid communication with a CIP module 20, which provides the corresponding treatment fluids at a predetermined temperature and concentration and, if necessary, a predetermined pressure.
- CIP stands for "Cleaning In Place” and means that the system 1 is designed so that a Treatment of the system 10, in particular cleaning and / or sterilization, is possible without dismantling it partially or completely.
- the CIP module 20 can be designed for complete or partial reuse of the treatment fluids by returning the respective media to the CIP module 20 after the CIP treatment and refreshing or renewing them if necessary.
- the CIP module 20 can be configured to at least partially produce the treatment fluids, for example by mixing a lye or acid. Alternatively or additionally, the CIP module 20 can be configured to receive the treatment fluids from an external facility, for example the central CIP system 30 described below, and to store them in suitable tanks for later use.
- the system 10 has a drainage system 14 for the treatment fluids introduced into the isolator 11.
- a separate drainage system can be provided for the internal treatment, or the drainage system 14 can be set up synergistically for the removal of the treatment fluids as part of the internal treatment.
- the treatment nozzles 12 and/or the internal treatment inlet 13 are also in fluid communication with a central CIP system 30, which is also set up to provide the corresponding treatment fluids at a predetermined temperature and concentration and, if necessary, a predetermined pressure.
- the central CIP system 30 is preferably set up to supply several systems 10, 10 'for treating containers with one or more treatment fluids.
- the CIP module 20 is part of the system 10 or at least arranged closer to the system 10 than the central CIP system 30.
- the CIP module 20 is also preferably designed to be more compact than the central CIP system 30.
- the treatment fluid can be accessed quickly due to the short distance to the system 10 and can be requested at any desired time. This is advantageous, for example, if the system 10 requires an intermediate treatment, for example intermediate cleaning, during production. For example, external cleaning and/or sterilization is possible during production.
- Such an intermediate treatment can be carried out as follows: first, a tempering fluid in the form of sterile, tempered water, which is provided by the CIP module 20 and which has a temperature of, for example, approximately 80°C, is applied to the freely accessible surfaces in the isolator 11 via the treatment nozzles 12. This step heats up the surfaces.
- the tempered water is preferably applied to the surfaces at a pressure of approximately 3 bar in order to also provide a certain mechanical cleaning effect.
- the tempering fluid is drained off via the drainage system 14.
- the surfaces dry quickly thanks to the drainage system 14 and the high temperature of the water and the correspondingly heated surfaces.
- vaporized hydrogen peroxide can be introduced into the insulator 11 via the cleaning nozzles 12, thereby sterilizing the surfaces to be disinfected. Because the surfaces are heated, the hydrogen peroxide cannot condense on the surfaces, so the surfaces remain dry.
- the sterilizing agent has been removed from the isolator, for example by rinsing with sterile air, normal operation can be continued without further complete cleaning and sterilization or initialization.
- the intermediate treatment is preferably carried out with the help of the CIP module 20.
- the treatment process comprising, for example, the intermediate treatment set out above, is controlled by a CIP treatment controller 50, which runs through a suitable treatment program and the correspondingly intended values of the circulated treatment fluid, such as temperature, pressure, etc., by means of suitable sensors (not shown in the figures). supervised.
- the treatment process can be programmable by the CIP treatment controller 50.
- the communication between the CIP treatment controller 50 and the corresponding components, including the CIP module 20, the central CIP system 30, any sensors, actuators, etc., can be wired or wireless, digital or analog. Communication does not necessarily have to involve an exchange of information in both directions. A unidirectional data and/or signal flow falls under the term “communication”.
- the CIP treatment control 50 does not necessarily have to be formed by a central computing device or electronic control, but rather includes decentralized and / or multi-stage systems, control networks, cloud systems and the like.
- the CIP treatment control 50 can also be an integral part of a higher-level system control or communicate with one.
- the treatment nozzles 12 and the internal treatment inlet 13 are integrated into a common CIP treatment circuit, so that external treatment can only take place if the treatment fluid is also fed into the internal treatment inlet 13 and thus into the product-carrying lines from the CIP module 20 and/or the central CIP system 30 via a CIP connection 17 and a possible transfer valve (not shown in the figures).
- the system 10 comprises separate treatment circuits for internal and external treatment.
- separate transfer points are implemented by two CIP connections 17a, 17b for the supply of the treatment fluids.
- the CIP module 20 is particularly preferably connected to the treatment nozzles 12 via the (first) CIP connection 17a and is separated or separable from the treatment circuit for internal treatment. In this case, external treatment by the CIP module 20 is also possible during regular production.
- a separation of the treatment circuits for internal and external treatment, such as in the exemplary embodiment Figure 2 is shown is particularly suitable for the case of a can filler, since these have comparatively high product losses due to the pressed filling and closing and thus an increased risk of contamination of the cans and surfaces in the insulator 11.
- the CIP module 20 in conjunction with separate treatment circuits enables surfaces to be treated quickly and without major product losses, essentially during regular production. Product paths do not have to be pushed out, rinsed and cleaned, which leads to significant time savings. Any cooling of the treatment fluid is also not necessary. Due to the direct connection to the CIP module 20, the treatment fluid can be available promptly and used directly.
