A continuous process for hyperactivation of fluids for sterilization

Abstract From the Canadian patent

The continuous process for hyperactivation of fluids for sterilization uses a sterilizing fluid which is mixed with a gas that is inert with respect to the fluid. A sterilizing mixture is obtained which is subsequently evaporated by means of introduction into an evaporation tube in a condition of annular motion, where a liquid phase of the mixture flows against the heated walls of the evaporator at a slower speed than the gaseous phase thereof which flows , in the central zone of the evaporator internally of the liquid phase. A , gaseous vapour/inert gas mixture is thus obtained which is subjected to a , waiting period during which the mixture flows through a transit device which …
