Methods for the generation of non-equilibrium solutions of peroxyacetic acid are disclosed. These methods comprise introducing triacetin and aqueous hydrogen peroxide to water, mixing, and then adding an aqueous source of an alkali metal or earth alkali metal hydroxide. Triacetin is converted rapidly and with a high conversion rate into peracetic acid. These methods produce solutions with a high level of peracetic acid.

A method is used for cleaning heat exchanger systems. The method is performed at a computer system having one or more processors and memory storing one or more programs configured for execution by the one or more processors. The method determines component percentages of a cleaning solution based, at least in part, on operational parameters of a heat exchanger system. The operational parameters include chemical composition of fluids passing through the heat exchanger system and operating temperatures of the fluids passing through the heat exchanger system. The component percentages of the cleaning solution include: (1) hydrogen peroxide, 2-90 wt. %; (2) a complexing agent, 3-30 wt. %; (3) water-soluble calixarene, 0.01-10 wt. %; and (4) water. The complexing agent includes a polybasic organic acid or a sodium salt thereof, or a derivative of phosphorous acid.

An automatic dishwashing composition is provided, comprising: a dispersant polymer blend, comprising an acrylic acid homopolymer; and a copolymer of acrylic acid and a sulfonated monomer; wherein the dispersant polymer blend has a blend ratio of the acrylic acid homopolymer to the copolymer of 3:1 to 1:3; a surfactant; a builder; and optionally, an additive.

A composition that is useful for disinfecting surfaces, instruments, or equipment that may comprise an oxidizer precursor, a pH adjusting agent, an acetylating agent, a chelating agent, and a quaternary ammonium salt is described. The composition may be dispensed in a variety of ways, for example, such as a sprayed solution, a fog, or a foam.

Systems, methods, etc., directed to removing or modifying pink-stain in a substrate. For example, removal of pink-stains caused by Streptoverticillium reticulum in marine vinyl, or to enhance the speed, specificity, and efficacy of other bleaching processes of autofluorescent organic stains in those and other substrates.

The present disclosure relates to an automatic dishwasher detergent which comprises metal complex of formula M.sup.n+L(Am.sup.m−).sub.n/m, wherein M is a metal cation, A is an arbitrary anion, n and m are integers selected from 1 to 6, and L is a neutral ligand of formula (II), wherein each X is as defined herein, and which exhibits improved cleaning performance in the removal of burnt-on soiling, to the use of this dishwasher detergent, and to a method for automatically washing dishes using this dishwasher detergent.

Phosphate-free automatic dishwashing detergent composition including a new amylase.

Bleach-containing automatic dishwashing cleaning composition including a new amylase.

The present invention relates to a quick rinse detergent cleaner. The detergent contains high levels of salt that immediately collapse soap bubbles, so that less rinsing (and re-rinsing) of utensils is required. This allows for greater portability and applications relative to existing cleaning solutions.
