Of course. But if your pre rinse step are to short and not efficient, then caustic solution take back remainings which are stay after pr rinse step. In this case you must often monitor conductivity in the caustic tank and clarity of solution. If you have very good and efficient pre rinse step, caustic will be clear :) Most important thing to use proper temperature in pre rinse solution. Regards and i invitie you to my chanel :)

Just saw that this was never answered. Yes, we reclaim a certain amount of the caustic wash that meets the right conductivity parameters. This fluid is often used in the next cycle's pre-rinse to help aide in organic material breakdown, shortening cleaning times and reducing chemical usage.
