An educational method to understand 'why it foams'
[Manufacturing Industry New Employee Training] Background of Foaming Issues! Strengthening Education to Prevent Foaming Problems and Achieve Quality Improvement
In the detergent manufacturing process, unexpected foaming can occur during production, raising concerns about decreased work efficiency and the impact on product quality. This is particularly problematic when new operators do not understand the causes of foaming, as they may not be able to respond appropriately, leading to repeated issues. The main causes of foaming are as follows: ● Excessive use of surfactants: When the main component of the detergent, surfactants, is added in excess, it becomes more prone to foaming. ● Improper stirring speed: Stirring at high speeds incorporates more air, which promotes foaming. ● Incorrect order of ingredient addition: Adding certain ingredients first can create an environment that is conducive to foaming. These factors are often rooted in mistakes in work procedures, equipment settings, and a lack of understanding of the properties of the raw materials. Foaming issues in the detergent manufacturing process can significantly affect product quality and production efficiency. Through appropriate education and training, we can enhance operators' understanding and awareness, thereby preventing troubles and improving quality. *For more details, please feel free to contact us.*
basic information
Proposal for Solutions | Educational Methods to Prevent Foaming Issues To prevent foaming issues, the following educational methods are effective: ● Education combining theory and practice: Learn the properties of surfactants and the mechanisms of foaming through classroom instruction, and deepen understanding through observation in actual manufacturing processes. ● Development of Standard Operating Procedures (SOP): Create procedure documents that clearly outline factors affecting foaming, such as the order of ingredient addition and stirring speed, and ensure that workers are thoroughly informed. ● Sharing of trouble cases: Share past cases of foaming issues to learn about causes and countermeasures, thereby raising awareness to prevent similar mistakes.
