Traceable chemistry combined with advanced analytics provides
unmatched visibility into critical cleaning and sanitizing performance;
further expands Ecolab’s industry-leading IoT footprint into food safety
ST. PAUL, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Ecolab Inc. introduces Synergex™, a U.S. EPA-registered, mixed peracid
sanitizer and disinfectant designed to help dairy, food, beverage and
brewery processors ensure food quality, improve productivity, enhance
workplace safety and reduce environmental impact.
Designed for use on most hard, non-porous surfaces and in clean-in-place
(CIP) applications, Synergex is an innovative, traceable chemistry that
helps processors improve productivity and reduce environmental impact
when used with Ecolab’s innovative inline monitoring system, 3D TRASAR™
Technology for CIP. This coupling of chemistry and real-time monitoring
promotes faster decision making and improved compliance with food safety
regulations.
Advanced Analytics
3D TRASAR Technology for CIP is a real-time optimization program
utilizing advanced sensors to monitor traced chemistry such as Synergex
for unmatched visibility into critical cleaning and sanitizing process
performance. Automation of real-time data collection and analytics,
combined with Ecolab’s 24/7 service and technical expertise, provides
customers with the actionable insights necessary to strategically and
effectively optimize their operations, resulting in increased
productivity and product quality at a lower total cost of operation.
“When we combine Synergex with our 3D TRASAR technology and
industry-leading technical expertise, we can provide greater visibility
into our customer’s most pressing and diverse challenges,” said Nick
Alfano, Ecolab executive vice president and general manager, Global Food
& Beverage. “Our technical experts analyze this information and partner
with customers to implement corrective actions that help safeguard food
safety.
“Synergex and 3D TRASAR CIP further advance Ecolab’s leadership position
of utilizing Internet of Things (IoT) technology within our customer
base to help produce food safely while reducing energy and water use.
Today, Ecolab has more than 36,000 3D TRASAR IoT systems installed in
customer locations throughout the world that are backed by a world-class
global monitoring and analytics center in Pune, India,” added Alfano.
Consistent Quality
In addition to featuring a powerful antimicrobial agent that helps
protect against many pathogenic microorganisms, yeast, mold and spoilage
organisms, the innovative Synergex sanitizer also reduces day-to-day
variability in quality levels.
“For fresh milk, Synergex has been shown to reduce day-to-day process
variability by up to 40 percent while increasing days of quality
assurance by up to 15 percent,” said Kristine Williams, vice president,
Research, Development and Engineering, Ecolab Food & Beverage.
“Increased quality assurance is critical as processors seek to expand
distribution channels and offerings, reduce waste, and improve
profitability in today’s highly competitive market.”
Improved Productivity
Synergex also is designed to help processers improve plant productivity.
The patented chemistry aids mineral, hard water and milk soil removal,
and optimizes CIP cycle time. And because Synergex is traceable with
Ecolab’s 3D TRASAR Technology for CIP, food and beverage processors can
more accurately measure compliance to quality standards with proof of
delivery data, optimize water and energy use, and reduce waste.
Improved Safety and Reduced Environmental Impact
The patented Synergex chemistry and delivery system enhances plant
safety and reduces environmental impact. The closed-loop dispensing
equipment, designed with a unique quick-connect drum closure, reduces
exposure to the concentrated product. And the product’s formulation has
fewer volatiles than traditional mixed peracid and peroxyacetic acids,
helping to improve air quality and reduce odor. This effective
no-phosphorous sanitizer is formulated to reduce peracid in the plant
effluent stream and can potentially eliminate the acid wash step,
further minimizing potential phosphate-related effluent fees and water
consumption in food and beverage processing plants.
Synergex is available now in the United States, Canada, Australia and
New Zealand.
