A urinal and pipe cleaning composition and automated dispensing system and method. The composition preferably comprises urea hydrochloride, a thickener, optionally one or more surfactants, and optionally fragrance. Preferably, the surfactants comprise cocamidopropyl betaine and one or more ethoxylated alcohols. The composition preferably has a viscosity allowing it to be dispensed from an automated dispenser and to coat the surfaces to be cleaned to allow sufficient contact time to dissolve accumulated salts and remove stains. A predetermined dose of the composition is dispensed at predetermined time intervals. Different dose amounts and time intervals may be used depending on the level of usage of the urinal, the amount of salt scale, and level of staining.

The invention pertains to degreasing compositions, process for producing and uses thereof. The composition comprises: from about 4% to about 16% by weight of the composition of a first anionic surfactant having HLB value less than 12; from about 1% to about 5% by weight of the composition of a second anionic surfactant having HLB value more than 12; from about 1% to about 4% by weight of the composition of a weak acid; from about 2% to about 6% by weight of the composition of urea; from about 1% to about 5% by weight of the composition of trisodium phosphate; about 1% to about 4% of the composition, of an inorganic base; and from about 60% by weight to about 90% by weight of the composition of water.

A toilet that includes a bowl; a tank having a sidewall and a bottom defining a reservoir; a container located inside the reservoir and configured to contain a chemical compound that mixes with water to form a cleaning compound; a connector for coupling the container to the sidewall; and a flush valve. The connector has a bracket coupled to the container, a threaded protrusion that extends from the bracket into a hole in the sidewall of the tank, and a threaded fastener having a threaded body and a head, which is larger radially than the threaded body such that the head contacts an outside of the sidewall in a secured position in which the threaded body threads to the threaded protrusion. The flush valve is fluidly connected to the container to introduce the cleaning compound into the bowl through an outlet in the bottom during a cleaning cycle.

A toilet that includes a water tank having a vent hole; a bowl; and a system having a valve body connecting the tank and a fluid channel; a housing moveable relative to the valve body during a flush cycle to pass water from the tank into the bowl through the fluid channel, the housing having a bore that connects with the fluid channel; a fan in the bore that operates in first and second modes; a motor in the bore for rotating the fan in each mode; and a vent having an inlet fluidly connected with the bore and an outlet fluidly connected with the vent hole. In the first mode, the fan moves air from the bowl to the vent hole through the bore and vent; and in the second mode, the fan moves air from outside the tank to the bowl through the vent hole and bore.

Cleaning compositions and methods for removing chewing gum, its components and other sticky soils from surfaces, especially production facilities, are disclosed. Cleaning composition solutions that do not require a rinse step are disclosed and suitable for treatment of surfaces having indirect food contact. In an aspect, the cleaning compositions and methods employ a scraping-spraying-wiping procedure.
