Abstract

A deliming and sanitizing process which includes injecting a liquid delimer composition into a pre-mix reservoir, and substantially simultaneously injecting a second liquid sanitizing composition into a pre-mix reservoir wherein the liquid delimer composition and the liquid sanitizing composition form a mixture which is then transported from the pre-mix reservoir into a water circulation system such as in an automatic ice machine for cleaning and sanitizing the system.
