Handbook For Critical Cleaning, 2nd Edition
Barbara Kanegsberg, CRC Press, ISBN: 9781439828267
Should you clean your product during manufacturing? If so, when and how? Cleaning is essential for proper performance, optimal quality, and increased sales. Inadequate cleaning of product elements can lead to catastrophic failure of the entire system and serious hazards to individuals and the general public. Gain a competitive edge with proven cleaning and contamination-control strategies A decade after the bestselling original, the Handbook for Critical Cleaning, Second Edition helps manufacturers meet today’s challenges, providing practical information and perspective about cleaning chemistries, equipment, processes, and applications. With 90% new or revised chapters plus supplementary online material, the Handbook has grown into two comprehensive volumes, Cleaning Agents and Systems and Applications, Processes, and Controls. Helping manufacturers become more efficient and productive, these books: Overview chapters by the editors, industry icons Barbara and Ed Kanegsberg, meld the different viewpoints and compile and critique the options. The result is a complete, cohesive, balanced perspective that helps manufacturers better select, implement, and maintain a quality, value-added cleaning process. The first volume, Handbook for Critical Cleaning: Cleaning Agents and Systems gives manufacturers a practical understanding of the variety and functions of cleaning chemistries and cleaning, rinsing and drying equipment. Topics include aqueous, solvent, and “non-chemical” approaches. Readers can compare process costs, performance, and regulatory issues and then choose their best option. The second volume, Handbook for Critical Cleaning: Applications, Processes, and Controls, addresses how to implement, validate, monitor, and maintain a critical cleaning process. Topics include cleanrooms, materials compatibility, worker safety, sustainability, and environmental constraints. The book shows readers how to draw from diverse discipines—including aerospace, art conservation, electronics, food, life sciences, military, optics, and semiconductors—to achieve superior productivity.

I keep these volumes close to hand and find them extremely well-written and informative. For those of us engaged in surface finishing and cleaning, no matter the industry type, this edition is an invaluable resource and will continue to be so for a long time. James Millar, Sales & Marketing Manager, Saint Gobain Surface Conditioning Group Barbara and Edward Kanegsberg's Second Edition "Handbook for Critical Cleaning" (Cleaning Agents and Systems; Applications, Processes, and Controls) does an excellent job demonstrating how to maximize efficiency techniques in a production setting. It precisely defines how to evaluate clean parts: whether it be a white glove test or measuring intricate water contact angles. 20 year finishing experts and rookies alike will thoroughly enjoy these volumes. Dan Bloden Since its publication in 2000, “Handbook for Critical Cleaning” has been the Bible of cleaning within industrial processes, and fans will be thrilled to see this newly updated second edition. Kate Hand, Managing Editor, Process Cleaning Magazine, from “Critical Cleaning Makes a Comeback,” Process Cleaning Magazine, June, 2011 “Mazel tov on your new edition!!! I really didn't know what to expect from a ‘cleaning’ book. So surprised- it is an incredible treasure trove of information!! It is really interesting, beautifully written and honestly I can't stop reading it. Thankfully it is two volumes so Scott and I don't have to fight over it. Really, it is the most fascinating technical book I've ever seen so it should fly off the shelves-or the Internet.” Debra Kimless-Garber MD, Scott Garber MD, DIFLUOREX “Handbook for Critical Cleaning. Cleaning Agents and Systems” is especially useful to me. Even with my 25 years of experience selling cleaning agents, the information helps me to talk with more authority about my products. Dick Peterson, Discovery Services …. a tour de force, a work written by experts who have worked at the interface between science and industry and who write from that basis, not from an ivory tower. The price of these two formidable volumes is not insignificant. But set against the cost of defective production, just for one hour’s downtime or components having to be re-worked or completely rejected, it is an investment that will pay for itself many times over. On that basis, one is more than happy to strongly recommend it. Anselm Kuhn, Galvanotechnik, July, 2011 Any firm serious about managing its cleaning operations should have this book available to their staff responsible for that operation. It’s a strong contribution to the technical literature supporting industrial cleaning because of the diversity of its coverage and strengths of many chapters, …. Every chapter is replete with references—something not provided with a Google (or other search engine) Internet search. John Durkee, “Metal Finishing Magazine,” August, 2011 Review of the First Edition “I have completed reading every page of your excellent Handbook. It is an authoritative compilation of important technical information from those who have ‘been there—done that’! I highly recommend this Handbook to all interested in clean surface technology and methodology. Especially valuable is the practical advice and philosophy from key contributors over a very broad range of industry applications. Thanks for your provision of this valuable reference to the surface science community.” Dr. Robert Baier, Professor and Executive Director, Center for Biosurfaces, SUNY Buffalo.

As one who is finishing a book now, and facing the daunting task of editing it, I fully recognize the magnitude of the job done with more than 65 chapters by the authors. The book is remarkably free of commercial bias, given that most chapters were written by authors with a commercial interest.
