There are various cleaning methods for the air drying production line to meet the cleaning needs of different ingredients and products. Here are some common cleaning methods:

1、 Bubble cleaning

Bubble cleaning is a commonly used method for cleaning air drying production lines. It utilizes the characteristics of bubbles rolling and impacting in water to comprehensively clean ingredients. The energy generated by the rupture of bubbles when they come into contact with the surface of food will have an impact and scrubbing effect on the surface of the food, effectively removing dirt and impurities from the surface. This method is suitable for cleaning various ingredients such as fruits, vegetables, and meat.

2、 High pressure spray cleaning

High pressure spray cleaning is a method of spraying and cleaning ingredients with high-pressure water flow. High pressure water flow can penetrate into the tiny gaps on the surface of ingredients, thoroughly removing dirt and pesticide residues. At the same time, high-pressure spraying can adjust the spraying pressure and angle according to the characteristics of the ingredients and cleaning needs to achieve the best cleaning effect. This method is suitable for ingredients that require deep cleaning, such as root vegetables, fruits, etc.

3、 Ultrasonic cleaning

Ultrasonic cleaning utilizes the cavitation effect, acceleration effect, and direct flow effect generated by ultrasonic waves in liquids to directly and indirectly affect liquids and pollutants, dispersing, emulsifying, and peeling the pollutant layer to achieve the cleaning purpose. This method is suitable for ingredients or products that require high-precision cleaning, such as precision components, medical devices, etc. Although the application of ultrasonic cleaning in food processing is relatively limited, it can also be considered for certain specific occasions, such as cleaning small gaps on the surface of fruits and vegetables or removing stubborn stains on the surface of meat.

4、 Combination cleaning

In order to improve the cleaning effect, the cleaning and drying assembly line sometimes uses a combination of multiple cleaning methods. For example, most of the dirt and impurities on the surface of the food can be removed by bubble cleaning first, and then deeply cleaned by high-pressure spray cleaning. This combination cleaning method can fully utilize the advantages of various cleaning methods, improve cleaning efficiency and quality.

5、 Other cleaning methods

In addition to the common cleaning methods mentioned above, there are also some other cleaning methods that may be used in specific situations. For example:

• Ozone cleaning: Utilizing the strong oxidizing properties of ozone to sterilize and remove pesticide residues from food ingredients. This method is suitable for occasions with high requirements for food safety.
• Steam cleaning: Using high-temperature steam to clean and disinfect food ingredients. This method is suitable for ingredients or products that require high-temperature processing.

In summary, there are various cleaning methods for air drying assembly lines, and the specific choice of method needs to be comprehensively considered based on factors such as the characteristics of the ingredients, cleaning requirements, and production costs. In practical applications, appropriate cleaning methods or combinations of cleaning methods can be selected according to the actual situation to achieve the best cleaning effect.
