ABSTRACT:
An irradiation system includes a conveying system for moving material to be irradiated through a processing area. An irradiation source applies radiation to material in the processing area. The conveying system is enclosed by a sealed conduit in at least the processing area, providing the capability to control the atmosphere inside the sealed conduit and to clean the interior of the sealed conduit according to industrial sanitation methods.
