Powdered Brewery Wash Cleaner - 1.8kg

• PBW™ is a buffered alkaline detergent that has been proven to be more than an effective substitute for caustic soda cleaners.
• Because of its unique formulation of buffers and mild alkalis,
• it is safe on skin as well as soft metals such as stainless steel, aluminum, and on plastics. PBW™ uses active oxygen to penetrate carbon or protein soils and is not affected by hard water.
• The oxygen also helps in reducing B.O.D. and C.O.D. in wastewater, which is an added environmental benefit.
• PBW™ has been formulated as a C.I.P. cleaner and is very effective in removing protein soils found on brew kettles, fermenters, conditioning tanks, filters and all packaging areas.
• The concentrations to remove these soils are typically in the 1% range. However, due to soil and water conditions this concentration will vary.
• To help in hard water areas PBW™ has been formulated with enough chelators to tolerate hard water over 17 grains.
• PBW™ is an excellent choice as a soak cleaner because it does not require excessive heat as do most caustic based cleaners.
• This product has cleaned brass and copper filters, and industrial aluminum surfaces successfully.
