Description

Sterilizing device for PET bottle blank by ray irradiation coupling gaseous hydrogen peroxide
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of aseptic filling of liquid beverages, in particular to a sterilizing device for PET bottle blanks by coupling ray irradiation with gaseous hydrogen peroxide.
Background
The PET bottle is a plastic packaging bottle which is made of Polyethylene terephthalate (PET for short) polyester as a raw material through injection molding and blowing, is widely applied to the field of beverage packaging, and becomes the packaging material with the highest development speed in the field of food and beverage. The PET aseptic filling technology is a modern beverage filling production technology which is developed and matured in recent decades and integrates a plurality of high and new technologies such as a light collection electromechanical integration technology, modern chemistry, physics, microbiology, automatic control, computer communication and the like, and in recent years, the PET aseptic filling technology is gradually developed into main production modes such as tea, fruit juice, protein beverage and the like through continuous innovation and development and continuous improvement of an industrial chain.
The sterilization of the PET bottle preform is the most critical step in the PET aseptic filling process, and the sterilization process needs to effectively kill microorganisms on the bottle preform, no chemical reagent residue is left after cleaning, and the sterilization process does not influence the physical and chemical properties of the PET bottle preform. At present, the bottle blank sterilization modes in the aseptic filling production process of PET mainly comprise peracetic acid wet sterilization, hydrogen peroxide dry sterilization, ray irradiation (such as high-energy electron beam irradiation, pulsed intense light irradiation, ultraviolet irradiation, infrared irradiation and the like) sterilization and the like. Wherein, the traditional PET aseptic filling production line mostly adopts peroxyacetic acid wet sterilization, which means that the inside and the outside of a bottle blank are continuously sprayed by adopting a peroxyacetic acid solution with the concentration of 1800 plus 2000ppm for sterilization, and the bottle blank is washed by sterile water until the residual amount of the peroxyacetic acid is below 0.5ppm, the method has high sterilization efficiency, but easily causes solvent residue, needs a large amount of sterile water for washing, and has high energy consumption; the gaseous hydrogen peroxide sterilization is to utilize the strong oxidizing property to form free hydroxyl and active derivatives with strong oxidizing capability, and the purpose of sterilization is achieved by destroying the external structure of the microorganism, causing the osmotic pressure of the microorganism cells to change and die, and destroying the DNA in the microorganism cells to die. The application of liquid hydrogen peroxide as a green and environmentally friendly disinfectant has been studied for over 100 years, but liquid hydrogen peroxide requires higher concentration and longer contact time to kill all microorganisms.
In the prior art, CN10492210A discloses a bottle blank sterilization device, in which a through hole and a connecting pipe are arranged on a rotating wheel, and a sterilization liquid is injected into a bottle blank for sterilization; CN 111632169A invented a bottle blank sterilization device, which adopts corresponding sterilization channels such as liquid distribution tray, nozzle assembly, etc., and can go deep into the bottom of the bottle blank for sterilization. Both of the above-mentioned two sterilization apparatuses sterilize only the inside of the preform, and do not sterilize the neck and the outside of the preform, and thus cannot ensure the aseptic state of the preform.
To sum up, how to realize disinfecting comprehensively to the bottle base, and how to repeat to the difficult microorganism that kills of bottle base neck screw department and disinfect, guarantee the sterile condition of bottle base, energy resource consumption when reducing the physics and disinfecting reduces gaseous hydrogen peroxide's quantity simultaneously, reduces the remaining risk of hydrogen peroxide, has become the problem that needs to solve urgently.
