The importance of supply chain management to enable the implementation of CIP central in a dairy industry in Ceará

The dairy industry extensively utilizes clean-in-place (CIP) systems for cleaning and sanitization, employing a closed-circuit cleaning method that enables the cleaning and sanitization of equipment, silos, piping, and isothermal tanks without disassembly. This process enhances safety and quality in initiating the production process. This research adopts a qualitative approach, employing a bibliographic search methodology that includes consulting various studies and documents such as research papers, reports, dissertations, monographs, studies, and scientific articles. The main objective of this study is to demonstrate the impacts of implementing a CIP Chemical Cleaning Central in a dairy industry. The findings indicate that cleaning through the CIP Central is an effective alternative, ensuring the removal of microorganisms to non-detectable levels while reducing the duration of the sanitization step and lowering energy consumption. These outcomes contribute to significant cost savings for the organization.
