Hi folks,

First thank you for the replies,

Mizkn,

Can you explain Steam in place a little bit further, it seems other people also call it sterilize in place. Or do you think we're talking about the same?

Arnie04,

Thanks for the link this was what i was looking for.

cheers

Rudi,
Related...yes, sterilization in place covers it...
Steam sterilization vs a cleaning agent sterilization..it depends on your process needs/design. If you are still looking for more centrifuge info try posting on the Pharmaceutical engineering forum under Chemical engineering. Your food industry CIP experience will assist.
Regards.

SIP expands to Sterilize In Place and Steam In Place as well because the main medium for sterilization of equipment is Pure Steam. Isolators are generally sterilized with H2O2 and in this case it is only Sterilize In Place.

A typical sterilize in place cycle is 30 minutes when pure steam temperature is 121⁰C and with 135⁰C it can be as low as 10 minutes.

Further, when a critical equipment cannot be exposed to acids, alkalis and detergents, the CIP is done with steam and the term Steam In Place is used alternatively.
