Cups have become an essential item in personal life, especially for children. Many people are worried about how to clean and disinfect newly purchased water cups and water cups in daily life in a reasonable and healthy way. Today I will share with you how to disinfect your water cup on a daily basis.
1. Cooking in boiling water
Many people who love cleanliness mistakenly believe that boiling with high-temperature water above 80°C is the simplest, most direct and most thorough way of cleaning and disinfection? Some people even think that the longer the water is boiled, the better, so that it can sterilize more thoroughly. Some friends think that ordinary boiling is not enough to kill all bacteria, so they will use a pressure cooker to boil them, so that they can rest assured. The use of boiling water for sterilization and disinfection is indeed a very effective way in harsh environments. But for modern enterprises, especially water bottle enterprises, most production environments are managed and produced in accordance with international standards. Most water cups are cleaned ultrasonically before leaving the factory, even if some companies do not perform standard operations. The materials used in water cups include stainless steel, plastic, glass, ceramics, etc. However, some can be sterilized without high-temperature boiling. Improper handling of plastic water cups during high-temperature boiling will not only cause the water cup to deform, but in severe cases will cause the release of pollutants in the water cup.
2. Dishwasher cleaning
After cleaning the water cup, the dishwasher will have a high-temperature drying function, which will play a sterilizing role during the drying process. At the same time, some dishwashers now have an ultraviolet sterilizing function, which can also play a role in disinfection and sterilization. But not all drinking glasses are suitable for dishwasher cleaning. After friends get the water cup, be sure to read the water cup instructions carefully to check whether your water cup is suitable for cleaning in the dishwasher to avoid damage to the water cup due to improper operation.
3. Disinfection cabinet
With the improvement of people’s material and economic levels, disinfection cabinets have come to thousands of households. Before using a newly purchased water cup, many friends will thoroughly clean the water cup with warm water and some plant detergent, and then put it into a disinfection cabinet for disinfection. Obviously, this approach is scientific, reasonable and safe. Comparing the above two methods, this approach is correct, but there are some places that everyone needs to pay attention to. Before entering the cleaning cabinet for cleaning and disinfection, make sure the water cup is clean and free of impurities, oil, and stains. Because the editor discovered when using this method of disinfection that if there are areas that are not cleaned, with the high-temperature ultraviolet disinfection, once the items used after multiple disinfections are dirty and have not been cleaned, they will turn yellow. And it’s hard to rinse off.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t have a disinfection cabinet at home. No matter what style of water cup you buy, just use warm water and neutral detergent to rinse it thoroughly.
