ABSTRACT:
Microbiologically contaminated shellfish are rendered edible by depurating the tainted shellfish in ultraviolet light irradiated salt water. The inlet water is first irradiated with ultraviolet light from an ultraviolet light source immersed in the water. The ultraviolet treated inlet water is then circulated through a filter which is provided to remove solid impurities from the circulating salt water whose salt and oxygen contents, temperature and flow rates are carefully controlled. Before returning to the depurating tank the water is again passed through an ultraviolet light irradiation zone.
