The sterilizing gas generator42atomizes a sterilizer solution (oxygenated water) by means of an ultrasonic vibrator46. The sterilizing apparatus further includes an ultraviolet generator (ultraviolet lamp50) that irradiates gas in the chamber4with an ultraviolet ray. The sterilizing apparatus further includes a door14for blocking an opening2A of the chamber4in a free-opening/closing manner and a locking device52for prohibiting the door14from being opened. The sterilizing apparatus further includes a controller60for controlling the locking device52to prevent the door14from being opened from start of the sterilization process to end of the decomposition process.
