ABSTRACT:
A radiation sterilization unit for sterilizing biological products, prolonging shelf-life of foodstuff, decontamination of clinical waste, and decontamination of microbiological products. A power unit, modulator, and an ultra-high frequency generator are connected via microwave waveguide elements to an electron injector, accelerator and beam deflecting system. The injector, accelerator and beam deflecting system are located in shielding made of cast iron or lead. A manipulator is provided and is selectively received in a cavity in the shielding. Products to be irradiated are placed on the manipulator and the manipulator is linearly received in the cavity placing the products in the field of accelerated electrons. The shielding and the manipulator block dangerous levels of ionizing radiation.
