Cleaning and Sanitizing Kitchen Tools and Equipment

This document discusses factors that influence the cleaning process of kitchen tools and equipment. It explains that the degree of soil, cleaning time, temperature, chemical concentration, mechanical force, and water quality all impact how soils are removed. Soils become more soluble and less concentrated chemicals can be used at higher temperatures over longer contact times. Proper cleaning requires addressing these various factors to completely remove unwanted matter from surfaces.

EQUIPMENT
FACTORS THAT
INFLUENCE THE
CLEANING PROCESS
SOIL
• VARYING DEGREES OF THE FOOD SOIL WILL BE
DEPOSITED ON THE EQUIPMENT DURING PRODUCTION.
THESE FOODS SOILS WILL REQUIRE COMPLETE
REMOVAL DURING THE CLEANING PROCESS AND WILL
AFFECT THE CLEANING COMPOUND USED ALONG WITH
THE METHOD OF CLEANING
SOIL
• Soil is unwanted matter on the surface of an
object that needs to be clean.
• Undesirable matter on the surface
TIME
• THE LONGER A CLEANING SOLUTION REMAINS IN
CONTACT WITH THE EQUIPMENT SURFACE, THE
GREATER THE AMOUNT OF FOOD SOIL THAT IS
REMOVED. MORE TIME IN CONTACT WITH THE SOIL
REDUCES THE CHEMICAL CONCENTRATION
REQUIREMENT.
TEMPERATURE
• SOILS ARE AFFECTED BY TEMPERATURE IN VARYING
DEGREES. IN THE PRESENCE OF A CLEANING
SOLUTION MOST SOILS BECOME MORE READILY
SOLUBLE AS THE TEMPERATURE INCEASES.
CHEMICAL CONCENTRATION

• IT VARIES DEPENDING ON THE CHEMICAL ITSELF,


TYPE OF FOOD SOIL, AND THE EQUIPEMENT TO BE
CLEANED. CONCENTRATION WILL NORMALLY BE
REDUCED AS TIME AND TEMPERATURE ARE
INCREASED.
MECHANICAL FORCE
• IS AS SIMPLE AS HAND SCRUBBING WITH A BRUSH OR
AS COMPLEX AS TURBULENT FLOW AND PRESSURE
INSIDE A PIPELINE.
WATER
• WATER USED FOR CLEANING AND SANITIZING MUST
BE POTABLE AND PATHOGEN (ORGANISM THET
SPREAD DISEASE) FREE
LIST DOWN AT LEAST 5 COMMON
MISTAKE THAT WE MAKE IN CLEANING
KITCHEN TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT
• Quaternary ammonium compounds, also called
quats or QACs, are a group of chemicals used for
a variety of purposes including as preservatives,
surfactants, antistatic agents and as active
ingredients in disinfectants and sanitizers.
