Abstract

The scope of this project was to design a system for dosing Citric Acid and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) into GE Healthcare’s 4200 L bio-processing tank, as part of an automated cleaning cycle. The designed system is intended to:

  • Minimize employee exposure to chemicals
  • Dose the necessary amount of chemicals in 3 minutes or less
  • Dose the necessary chemicals within a 0.5% tolerance
  • Neutralize the cleaning solution to a pH level between 6 and 9
  • Have a design-life of at least 10 years
