[Case Study of Trouble Improvement] Corruption

No more spoilage in starch sizing! Optimize your process and dosing for the best results.

Problems such as “spoilage and odor generation of sizing starch solution in storage tanks” and “bacterial counts exceeding 1,000 cfu/ml several times a year (especially in summer)” had been reported. Because starch solutions are neutral and prone to spoilage, a faster-acting preservative was required compared to conventional products. Therefore, Statect 231 was shock-dosed 36 times per day at high frequency. As a result, bacterial counts were successfully maintained below 100 cfu/ml throughout the year. 【Case Study】 ■ Challenges Spoilage and odor of sizing starch solution in storage tanks Bacterial growth exceeding 1,000 cfu/ml several times a year (especially in summer) For more details, please refer to the PDF or feel free to contact us.** **Challenges included “sizing starch solutions spoiling and producing odors in storage tanks” and “bacteria levels rising above 1,000 cfu/ml several times a year, especially in summer.” Since starch solutions are neutral and easily spoil, a faster-acting preservative was needed. By shock-dosing Statect 231 36 times per day, bacterial counts were kept under 100 cfu/ml all year round. 【Case Summary】 ■ Problems Spoilage and odor in starch sizing solution storage tanks Bacterial counts over 1,000 cfu/ml occurring several times a year (particularly in summer) For details, please download the PDF or contact us directly.
