When working with data, it is essential to ensure data quality and clean data of errors. This is usually done with a data cleaning pipeline. The execution of such a pipeline is possible with a variety of tools. However, to increase reusability, there should be a way to describe pipelines independently of technology. So far, there is no such technology-independent description. This paper therefore presents ALPINE, a language for describing data cleaning pipelines. This abstracts from the concrete implementation. After introducing the individual components, the usage is illustrated using a running example.
