Sensors and recovery strategies can help prevent over-cleaning and unnecessary consumption, although results depend on plant design and the product being processed. <\/p><h3>Improved Operational Safety and Traceability<\/h3><p>By reducing manual handling of components and cleaning solutions, CIP can improve the organisation of cleaning work.
