ABSTRACT
A good communication between the user and the supplier of cleaning and
disinfection agents is necessary to solve the ecological problems or to
establish the ecological strategy. The waste water amount, composition, its
treatment and energy consumption are the major ecological problems in a
technological process. The most important waste water parameters in food
industry are COD, BOD5, nitrogen, phosphorus and AOX. The contribution of a
cleaning and disinfection agents producer for solving the ecological problems is
following: the chemical composition, optimised cleaning producers, monitoring
and control of dosage and concentration, central storage and distribution of
chemical agents. Such a closed hygienic concept is important from the
ecological, economical and also from the QC point of view, so it has to be
integrated in the quality assurance systems.
Key words: ecology, cleaning, disinfection, dairy industry.
