TS 10621

TS 10621 is a service standard covering the general rules for synthetic detergent factories. Its focus is the overall organisation and operation of this type of plant, rather than the detailed chemistry of individual detergent formulas or a product performance specification.

General framework for synthetic detergent production

Synthetic detergents are cleaning products typically formulated from surfactants and other functional ingredients such as builders, fillers, fragrances, and related additives. In industrial practice, producing these materials consistently depends on a clear arrangement of raw material handling, process flow, storage, internal logistics, cleaning, and maintenance. A general-rules standard provides a common structural basis for planning and running such a facility.

What this standard covers

As indicated by its title, this standard addresses the general rules applicable to synthetic detergent factories. It is therefore concerned with plant-level principles for layout, operation, and organisation, rather than defining a product formulation, a chemical composition limit, or a test method for the detergent itself. This kind of factory standard is useful where the main need is a consistent operating framework across production areas and support functions.

• General arrangement of facilities used for synthetic detergent production
• Basic organisational and operational principles
• The broad separation of production areas and support areas
• A controlled and orderly approach to factory operation
