This invention relates to a detergent composition for cleaning hard surfaces with superior cleaning qualities.
5 R~.OUND OF THE lNv~N.lON
In food industry hard surface cleaning has traditional-ly been carried out by high pressure foam cleaning. There are some severe safety problems by using high pressure foam cleaning: High pH, aggressive cleaning agents, aerosol for-o mation and mechanical noise and damage are the most importantones, but there are also environmental problems connected to high pressure foam cleaning due to a large water consumption and thereby effluent treatment.
It has also been excluded to add enzymes to the detergents in the normal hard surface cleaning. The risk of inhaling enzymes (allergy potential) due to aerosol formation is so obvious that it rules out the use of enzymes in the traditional high pressure foam cleaning.
To overcome these difficulties in recent years much 20 effort has been put into developing different hard surface cleaners in the form of gels. The gel cleaners have the advantages of giving a safe application, they do not or only insignificantly create aerosols, they have a low water con-sumption, so if the cleaning capacity of the gel is satis-z5 factory, the gel application method is a safe and gentle way ofcleaning hard surfaces.
UMM~Y OF THE lN V ~ N ~ lON
In this invention it is surprisingly found that a special gel cleaning composition with enzyme(s), which contains 30 no thickeners, has extraordinary good cleaning capacities on hard surfaces.

Accordingly, the present invention relates to a detergent composition for cleaning hard surfaces, the com-position comprising one surfactant together with an electrolyte or more than one surfactant, optionally together with an 5 electrolyte, which composition is capable of forming a gel when water is added, the composition further comprising one or more enzymes.
The present invention is further illustrated by 10 reference to the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. l shows the cleaning result of the C14 dimethyl amine oxide/sodium oleate/protease gel, pH 12 (top), pH 10.1 -(bottom), half the lid with enzyme, the other half without enzyme, the gel produced as described in Example 1.

Gel Compositions Gel cleaning agents containing one or more enzymes for 30 use as industrial hard surface cleaners have been described before (see Research Disclosure, August 1992, p.619, No.34045).
WO94/25561 ~- PCT~K94/00176 These gels are characterized by containing at least one or more surfactants, builders, thickeners and one or more enzymes.
According to the invention, it is preferred to add enzyme(s) to a special gel cleaning composition which contains 5 no thickeners. (Gels containing thickeners are described in Research Disclosure, August 1992, p.619, No.34045). Basically these gels are made of one surfactant together with an electro-lyte or more than one surfactant, optionally together with an electrolyte, which composition is capable of forming a gel when 10 water is added. Some surfactants have this special capacity; in the present invention it has been found that there may be two surfactants, the first surfactant may be an amine oxide or a betaine or a tetraalkylammoniumchloride and the second surfact-ant an alkali metal salt of a fatty acid, or the first surfact-15 ant may be a nonionic glycolipid and the second surfactant acharged surfactant, preferably an anionic surfactant, prefer-ably sodium lauryl sulfate or sodium lauryl ether sulfate.
The amine oxide may be one of the general formula R - N ~ O, where R = C12-C18, and R1 is the same or different and selected 25 from alkyl, substituted alkyl, aryl or substituted aryl. An example of a suitable amine oxide is C~4 dimethyl amine oxide.
The betaine may be one of the general formula I
30 R - N+ - CH2-COO., I
where R = C12-C18, and R1 is the same or different and selected from alkyl, substituted alkyl, aryl or substituted aryl. An 35 example of a suitable betaine is C1214 alkyl dimethyl betaine, in which C1214 alkyl is derived from coconut.

s R - N+ - R, Cl I
R
where R is the same or different and selected from alkyl or substituted alkyl.
The alkali metal salt of a fatty acid may be one of the general formula o Il R--CH2 - C--O M~, R = C8--C16-An example of a suitable alkali metal salt of a fatty acid is sodium oleate.
The glycolipid may be a sugar or sugar alcohol fatty acid ester (as described in JP 63-112,993) or a derivative thereof or a fatty acid monoester or a mixture of fatty acid 20 monoesters of alkylglycoside (as described in US 5,191,071 and in US 5,200,328) or a derivative thereof.
The ratio of the first surfactant (the amine oxide or the betaine or the tetraalkylammoniumchloride or the glyco-lipid) and the second surfactant (the alkali metal salt of a 25 fatty acid or the charged surfactant) is suitably 1:10 - 10:1, preferably 1:1 - 10:1.
The gel composition may optionally also contain other detergent ingredients such as solvents and sequestrants.
The gel composition may also contain an electrolyte 30 (e.g. sodium chloride) to induce gel formation or increase gel strength. When all the components except the enzyme(s) are added, the pH is adjusted to less than 12.5. This detergent composition is admixed with water to a total water con-centration of 10-80%, preferably 20-70%, more preferably 40-WO94125~61 2 1 6 2 0 2 1 PCT~h94/00176 ~ . ..... ~
60%. At this concentrated form the detergent composition is aneasily pumpable liquid.
Then one or more enzymes are added to the surfactant composition of the present invention. The enzymes are in 5 particular proteases (for instance Savinase 16.0 L, Alcalase 2.5 L, Esperase- 8.0 L or Durazym~ 16.0 L, all available from Novo Nordisk A/S), amylases (for instance Termamyl~ 300 L
available from Novo Nordisk A/S), lipases (for instance Lipolase lO0 L available from Novo Nordisk A/S) or cellulases 10 (for instance Celluzyme~ l.0 L available from Novo Nordisk A/S). The amount of techn;cal enzyme may be dosed so that the percentage of enzyme in the finished gel will be of 0.001-10%, preferably 0.01-1%, in particular about O.Ol-0.1%.
The above mentioned surfactant combination forms a gel 15 when water is added. The gel formation may be promoted by an electrolyte which may be present in the concentrated detergent composition or in the water added to generate the gel. This reflects the well known fact that in a triangular phase diagram describing a ternary system (first surfactant, second surf-20 actant, water) changes in the mole fractions often lead tophase transition, e.g. the transition from a liquid phase to a gel phase. It is also known that this phase transition may be reversed by changing the mole fraction.
lt has surprisingly been found that the enzymes perform 25 extremely well in the surfactant system of the present inven-tion despite the impaired diffusion possibility of the macro-molecular enzymes in the gel network. This can be explained by the gel being in a dynamic state of constant micelle refor-mation generating a stirring action in situ.
30 Gel Making in situ The gel is made in situ. The detergent composition comprising the surfactants, the enzyme(s) and optionally the electrolyte are diluted with water and applied to the soiled surfaces by using some kind of application system (e.g. diluted 35 through a venturi and applied via a special lance). The detergent composition is best applied using gel generation WO94/25~61 2 1 6 2 ~ 2 ~ PCT~Kg4/00176 equipment which automatically draws in the required percentage.
Application equipment is available from for instance Scanio A/S, Blytaekkervej 4-6, DK-9000 Aalborg, Denmark.
In order to make the proper gel, the water used for 5 mixing should be added in an amount so as to generate a final surfactant concentration in the range of 0.1-25%, preferably in the range of 0.5-10%.
Cleaninq Hard Surfaces The gel is applied to the soiled surfaces as described 10 above. The gel will set on the surfaces within a few seconds.
The enzymes will participate in the degradation of protein (proteases), starch (amylases), lipid (lipases) and cellulose (cellulases) residues. The gel will remain in its form even on complicated ~hAp~ equipment, vertical surfaces and ceilings 15 and will therefore give very long contact times. Dwell times are difficult to estimate beforehand and should be determined by trial. A dwell time of 5-30 minutes may often be required.
After a sufficient dwell time to allow for enzyme and surfactant action the gel composition is rinsed off using a 20 washing system. In some cases it may be necessary to use a pressure washing system to rinse off the gel composition, but often removal by gentle flushing with water is easy and all that is needed.
~valuation of the Cleaninq Results In the present invention the efficiency of the deter-gent formulations on hard surfaces is evaluated visually. This is of course a primitive method, but for the skilled eye the best there is today.
Potential Applications The enzyme gel detergent described in this invention may be used in all kinds of food industries: in dairies, in slaughterhouses, in breweries, in sea food production units etc. It may also be used in the transport sector, for instance as a cleaning agent in car washing and for general vessel wash.

It may also work as a general purpose cleaner in households, for instance as an efficient oven cleaner.
The invention is further illustrated in the following example which is not intended to be in any way limiting to the 5 scope of the invention as claimed.
Test of an Enzyme Gel Detergont on Hard 8urf~ceQ with Protein ~oils Protein Soils 3 whole eggs and 50 ml of skimmed milk were blended together at lowest speed in a Braun UK20 for 1 min. This mixture was poured over the curved side of a stainless steel lid. The lid was left to dry for at least 4 hours at room temperature in a drying rack where excess soil drained off.
Before use the soiled lid was dipped in boiling water for 30 sec. In this way the soil was made more difficult to remove.

where R is the same or different and selected from alkyl or substituted alkyl.
The alkali metal salt of a fatty acid may be one of the general formula o Il R--CH2 - C--O M~, R = C8--C16-An example of a suitable alkali metal salt of a fatty acid is sodium oleate.
The glycolipid may be a sugar or sugar alcohol fatty acid ester (as described in JP 63-112,993) or a derivative thereof or a fatty acid monoester or a mixture of fatty acid 20 monoesters of alkylglycoside (as described in US 5,191,071 and in US 5,200,328) or a derivative thereof.
The ratio of the first surfactant (the amine oxide or the betaine or the tetraalkylammoniumchloride or the glyco-lipid) and the second surfactant (the alkali metal salt of a 25 fatty acid or the charged surfactant) is suitably 1:10 - 10:1, preferably 1:1 - 10:1.
The gel composition may optionally also contain other detergent ingredients such as solvents and sequestrants.
The gel composition may also contain an electrolyte 30 (e.g. sodium chloride) to induce gel formation or increase gel strength. When all the components except the enzyme(s) are added, the pH is adjusted to less than 12.5. This detergent composition is admixed with water to a total water con-centration of 10-80%, preferably 20-70%, more preferably 40-WO94125~61 2 1 6 2 0 2 1 PCT~h94/00176 ~ . ..... ~
60%. At this concentrated form the detergent composition is aneasily pumpable liquid.
Then one or more enzymes are added to the surfactant composition of the present invention. The enzymes are in 5 particular proteases (for instance Savinase 16.0 L, Alcalase 2.5 L, Esperase- 8.0 L or Durazym~ 16.0 L, all available from Novo Nordisk A/S), amylases (for instance Termamyl~ 300 L
available from Novo Nordisk A/S), lipases (for instance Lipolase lO0 L available from Novo Nordisk A/S) or cellulases 10 (for instance Celluzyme~ l.0 L available from Novo Nordisk A/S). The amount of techn;cal enzyme may be dosed so that the percentage of enzyme in the finished gel will be of 0.001-10%, preferably 0.01-1%, in particular about O.Ol-0.1%.
The above mentioned surfactant combination forms a gel 15 when water is added. The gel formation may be promoted by an electrolyte which may be present in the concentrated detergent composition or in the water added to generate the gel. This reflects the well known fact that in a triangular phase diagram describing a ternary system (first surfactant, second surf-20 actant, water) changes in the mole fractions often lead tophase transition, e.g. the transition from a liquid phase to a gel phase. It is also known that this phase transition may be reversed by changing the mole fraction.
lt has surprisingly been found that the enzymes perform 25 extremely well in the surfactant system of the present inven-tion despite the impaired diffusion possibility of the macro-molecular enzymes in the gel network. This can be explained by the gel being in a dynamic state of constant micelle refor-mation generating a stirring action in situ.
30 Gel Making in situ The gel is made in situ. The detergent composition comprising the surfactants, the enzyme(s) and optionally the electrolyte are diluted with water and applied to the soiled surfaces by using some kind of application system (e.g. diluted 35 through a venturi and applied via a special lance). The detergent composition is best applied using gel generation WO94/25~61 2 1 6 2 ~ 2 ~ PCT~Kg4/00176 equipment which automatically draws in the required percentage.
Application equipment is available from for instance Scanio A/S, Blytaekkervej 4-6, DK-9000 Aalborg, Denmark.
In order to make the proper gel, the water used for 5 mixing should be added in an amount so as to generate a final surfactant concentration in the range of 0.1-25%, preferably in the range of 0.5-10%.
Cleaninq Hard Surfaces The gel is applied to the soiled surfaces as described 10 above. The gel will set on the surfaces within a few seconds.
The enzymes will participate in the degradation of protein (proteases), starch (amylases), lipid (lipases) and cellulose (cellulases) residues. The gel will remain in its form even on complicated ~hAp~ equipment, vertical surfaces and ceilings 15 and will therefore give very long contact times. Dwell times are difficult to estimate beforehand and should be determined by trial. A dwell time of 5-30 minutes may often be required.
After a sufficient dwell time to allow for enzyme and surfactant action the gel composition is rinsed off using a 20 washing system. In some cases it may be necessary to use a pressure washing system to rinse off the gel composition, but often removal by gentle flushing with water is easy and all that is needed.
~valuation of the Cleaninq Results In the present invention the efficiency of the deter-gent formulations on hard surfaces is evaluated visually. This is of course a primitive method, but for the skilled eye the best there is today.
Potential Applications The enzyme gel detergent described in this invention may be used in all kinds of food industries: in dairies, in slaughterhouses, in breweries, in sea food production units etc. It may also be used in the transport sector, for instance as a cleaning agent in car washing and for general vessel wash.
