20090208369 | METHOD OF STERILIZING A PACKAGING MATERIAL BY MEANS OF O STERILIZATION AGENT CONTAINING HYDROGEN PEROXIDE - A method of sterilizing a packaging material for, for example, a ready-to-fill package with extended shelf-life for a food involves bringing a sterilization agent containing hydrogen peroxide into contact with the packaging material in order to remove microorganisms present on the packaging material. After the contact with the sterilization agent, the packaging material is ventilated with air so as to remove remaining residues of hydrogen peroxide on and/or in the packaging material. The removal of the remaining residues of hydrogen peroxide is improved synergistically by exposing the packaging material, after contact with the sterilization agent but before ventilation, to accelerated electrons at a kinetic energy of at least 50 keV. | 08-20-2009 |
20090158818 | Method of Discovering Leakage in a Heat Exchanger - A method of discovering leakage in a heat exchanger, wherein the method is carried into effect on an intact heat exchanger which, together with surrounding conduits, is filled with water. The heat exchanger preferably has requisite pressure indicators mounted between each section, as well as requisite shut-off valves. The method comprises applying in each section of the heat exchanger an excess pressure on one side which is enclosed there, while the other side is at normal pressure. The pressure is enclosed during a period of time and is monitored during this period of time. | 06-25-2009 |
20080276968 | Method of Cleaning a Food Plant - A method of cleaning a food plant of the type which produces an aseptic product or a product with extended shelf life involves at least one circulation with an alkaline detergent solution and at least one circulation with an acidic cleaning solutions. The circulations take place alternatively with the alkaline detergent solution and the acidic cleaning solution. Prior to the first circulation, between each circulation and after the last circulation, rinsings with water take place. Simultaneously with the last circulation with alkaline detergent solution the plant is sterilized, and after the last circulation with the acidic cleaning solution the two last rinsings with water take place with sterile liquid. | 11-13-2008 |
