Type of Soil Soil Subclass Examples

Inorganic soils Hand-water deposits Ca and Mg carbonates

Metallic deposits Common rust, Other oxides

Alkaline deposits Films left when an alkaline


cleaner is not rinsed off
properly
Organic soils Food deposits Food scraps and specs

Petroleum deposits Lubrication oils, grease, and


other lubricants
Nonpetroleum deposits Animal fats and vegetable

Removing Different Types of Soil
Type of Soil Solubility Ease of Removal Effects of Heat
Salts Soluble in water Easy to difficult Reacts with other types of
soil and becomes harder
to remove

Soluble in acid
Sugar Soluble in water Easy Caramelizes and becomes
difficult to remove
Fat Insoluble in water Difficult Molecules join together
and become difficult to
remove
Soluble in water
Protein Insoluble in water Very difficult Molecules change shape
(denature) and become
very difficult to remove
Slightly soluble in

Characteristics of surfaces in Food-Processing Plants
Material Characteristics Precautions
Wood Soaks up moisture, fats, and oils. Difficult to Do not use, because it is
maintain. Softened by alkali. Destroyed by caustics unsanitary. Use stainless steel,
polyethylene, or rubber instead
Black Acid or chlorinated detergents may cause rust Often tinned or galvanized to
metals prevent rust. Use neutral
detergents to clean.
Tin May be corroded by strong alkaline or acid cleaners. Do not allow tin surfaces to
touch foods
Concrete May be etched by acid foods and cleaning Concrete should be dense and
compounds acid resistant. Should not make
dust. Can use acid brick instead.
Glass Smooth and impervious. May be etched by strong Clean glass with moderately
alkaline cleaning compounds alkaline or neutral detergents
Paint Method of application affects surface quality. Etched Some edible paints can be used
by strong alkaline cleaning compounds. in food plants
Rubber Should not be porous or spongy. Not affected by Rubber cutting boards can warp
alkaline detergents. Attacked by organic solvents and their surface dulls knife
and strong acids. blades.
Stainless Generally resists corrosion. Smooth, impervious Stainless steel is expensive and
steel surface. Resists oxidation at high temperatures. may not be readily available in
Easy to clean. Nonmagnetic the future. Some stainless steel is
attacked by halogens
