ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for packaging a product in containers includes a sterilization station and a conveyor for intermittently conveying containers to the sterilization station. A vaporizing nozzle communicates with a reservoir of liquid disinfectant containing hydrogen peroxide and a source of compressed air. The nozzle is intermittently opened and closed whereby the compressed air vaporizes the disinfectant and a mixture of liquid disinfectant in fine droplets and compressed air is ejected when the nozzle is open. A tube is connected with its intake end at the nozzle and is disposed parallel to the jet emitted from the nozzle. A heater on the tube heats the inner surface of the tube to a temperature that is sufficient high to rapidly evaporate the disinfectant in the mixture. As a result a mixed flow of compressed air and evaporated disinfectant leaves the output end of the tube and enters the container in the sterilization station.
