The sterilizing gas source of supply that any can be suitable for be used for this method and device (being included in the hydrogen phosphide source of supply of the encapsulation of the sort of type described in the specification of International Patent Application PCT/AU93/00270).If the disinfectant source of supply is a disinfectant gas tank, chlorination equipment preferably includes sterilant gas injection apparatus (unless consider adopting " once ejection " disinfection technology), and this injection apparatus guarantees that the decontaminant concentration in the recycle gas improves when reaching or be lower than a predetermined minimum of a value.The sterilant gas injection apparatus can comprise a sterilant gas sensor in steam line, this signal of sensor is by a program control micromessage processor monitoring, so that whenever the concentration of sterilant gas is reduced to one and predetermined provided additional sterilant gas when below horizontal in recirculation circuit.Another kind of scheme is, this device can comprise a mechanism that regularly sprays into a certain amount of disinfectant in the gas of recirculation, and the amount of its injection frequency and the disinfectant that added depends on the leak rate of measured feed bin.
These and other feature of the present invention will be in the following description illustrated that one embodiment of the present of invention are carried out.In the following explanation that only provides, be described with reference to the accompanying drawings with mode for example.
Fig. 1 schematically shows a kind of known chlorination equipment, adopts this device, utilizes the recirculation of the mixture of an independent sterilant gas source of supply and sterilant gas and carrying gas, many feed bins of the bunkerage of can sterilizing.
Fig. 2 has also represented feed bin bunkerage more than with schematic diagram, and wherein, each feed bin of this equipment is all sterilized simultaneously by a kind of preferred versions of the present invention.
In Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, adopted the common member of identical reference number mark diagram chlorination equipment.In each illustrated device, the bunker or the feed bin 10 that comprise three parallel connections in gas recirculation circuit, each feed bin has an air inlet 11 and an exhaust outlet 12, the above-mentioned gas recirculation circuit also comprises a steam line or house steward 13, discharge duct or 14, gas duct couplings 15 of house steward and air blast or blower fan 16.The source of supply of sterilant gas (is represented with a gas tank 17 that the pressurised mixt of carbon dioxide and hydrogen phosphide is housed in the drawings, but in fact can be the source of supply of any gaseous sterilizing agent that is suitable for) link with pipeline 13, spray into sterilant gas through a nozzle 18 as required.
Each bunker or feed bin 10 all are equipped with a certain amount of granular goods.The present invention is used for the sterilization that wheat is drawn, but any other granule state food (for example rice or edible beans) or any other the particle of granular goods that is stored in bunker or the feed bin all can adopt the present invention to carry out disinfection.Each air inlet of feed bin 10 is equipped with a close/open valve 19.
In the device of Fig. 1,, open the valve 19 of the air inlet that leads to a bunker or feed bin and close valve 19 on the air inlet of other feed bin for the article in the feed bin 10 of sterilizing.Then, utilize the disinfectant technology that circulates repeatedly, the feed bin that the valve 19 that is associated with it is opened carries out disinfection.When the sterilisation of objects in this feed bin is finished, the valve of opening 19 cuts out and one in other valve 19 is opened.Then, again the article in the opened feed bin of the valve that is associated with it 19 are carried out disinfection.This process repeats, and the stores in each feed bin of bunkerage has all obtained till the sterilization.
As mentioned above, when adopting hydrogen phosphide as disinfectant, the sterilization that utilizes the device shown in Fig. 1 to carry out a plurality of feed bins will spend many times, and, exist when to when being stored in article in another feed bin and carrying out disinfection, the article of having sterilized in a certain feed bin are the problem of subinfection again.
In device shown in Figure 2, in the gas recirculation circuit, comprise a system valve 25.Adopt this system valve 25 static pressure in the pipeline 13 can be maintained a predetermined value or the static pressure value is in the predetermined scope.
Usually, with the static pressure that adopts in the Pressure gauge 24 monitoring steam lines 13.Control to the setting of the system valve 25 that the static pressure in the pipeline 13 remained on required force value can be undertaken by an operator, this operator should observe Pressure gauge when following situation occurs: when (i) bunker stops sterilization and this bunker and breaks away from from recirculation circuit, and when (ii) a new bunker being added recirculation circuit.Another program is, also can automatically implement control by following operation to the setting of system valve 25, promptly utilize the signal of telecommunication that produces by Pressure gauge and it is imported one and be subjected to programme controlled microsignal processor 26, to produce a control signal, thereby drive a motor 27 (preferably step-by-step motor), this motor mechanically changes the setting value of system valve 25.This servo-drive system that is used to maintain the predetermined pressure in chamber, pipeline or the analog itself is known.
Each feed bin 10 is equipped with an orifice plate 20 at its air inlet place.The aperture of each orifice plate 20 can be regulated, and when the air pressure in the steam line 13 reaches its required predetermined value (or being in the predetermined value range), makes gas flow through the feed bin that is associated with orifice plate with desired rate thus.So, by opening corresponding valve 19 and regulating system valve 25, establishing required static pressure among pipeline or the house steward 13, can the article in the feed bin of the arbitrary number that is stored in bunkerage be carried out disinfection simultaneously.
Setting value by regulating system valve 25, make the pressure in the steam line 13 return to desired value, just can proofread and correct easily since open the valve 19 of originally closing so as to sterilize be stored in another bunker 10 article or owing to closing an opened valve 19 so that a feed bin 10 is removed the fluctuation of the air-flow that contains sterilant gas that (for example when the article in the feed bin will be unstowed) caused from disinfecting steps.When finishing the above-mentioned adjusting of system valve 25, the gas that contains disinfectant will pass " opening " feed bin or bunker 10 in parallel by corresponding desired rate once more simultaneously.
Can lean on manually and in the gas of recirculation, add disinfectant, so that compensation absorbs the loss that is caused because of leakage with by the article in the feed bin of sterilizing.For addition, require to monitor earlier the operation of storage system, so that rule of thumb determine the residing condition of storage feed bin used: the time that i) must in recycle gas, replenish disinfectant by the Artificial Control disinfectant; Ii) in order in recycle gas, to keep the least concentration of required disinfectant at least, need the amount of the disinfectant that adds.
This in recycle gas the operation of regular replenishment disinfectant can adopt a kind of metering device of form known automatically to carry out, the gas tank that this metering device and is equipped with the gaseous sterilizing agent of pressurization links and by a timer-operated solenoid operation.
But, add in recycle gas that disinfectant leaks with compensation and the preferred arrangement of absorption loss as shown in Figure 2.Concentration by the contained disinfectant of gas in a sterilant gas sensor 21 monitoring steam lines 13.The output signal of sensor 21 is passed to a microsignal processor 22 that can be made of one with microsignal processor 26.The output of microsignal processor 22 is suitable for controlling from gas tank 17 to steam line the supply of 13 gaseous sterilizing agent.Whenever showing the concentration of hydrogen phosphide (or other gaseous sterilizing agent) in pipeline 13, the output signal from disinfectant sensor 21 reduced to predetermined value when following, microsignal processor 22 just makes gas tank 17 give off more disinfectant, and the concentration of disinfectant at least returns to till the predetermined value in recycle gas.Utilize this device, can automatically increase the concentration of disinfectant in the recycle gas, so that keep a required minimum and compensate the different air-loss rate of each feed bin 10.
Gas tank 17 can be installed on the platform balance 23.Use platform balance 23 to monitor the quantity of liquid gas residual in the gas tank 17.If desired, can comprise the equipment with form known in chlorination equipment, if the liquid gas in the gas tank 17 reaches lower limit, this equipment can send alarm signal.
An advantage shown in Figure 2 and above described chlorination equipment is: the gas by each feed bin that passes bunkerage with same line speed is provided and make the air inlet pressure of each feed bin identical, can make the leakage at feed bin top, or in other words, the leakage in feed bin bottom or the base has minimum influence.But, if all being sealed to the distribution of leaking between the extremely low leak rate of an airtight standard and each feed bin or the feed bin, feed bin 10 almost do not have difference, be easy to realize making disinfectant in each feed bin of system, to distribute satisfactorily.Under these conditions, the decontaminant concentration in recycle gas to reduce speed very low.The main loss of disinfectant only just by the storing products in the feed bin absorption caused.Therefore, if the sterilant gas that once sprays in the recirculation circuit can make the decontaminant concentration in the recycle gas be not less than required least concentration when the disinfection cycle of regulation stops, then can implement the disinfection technology of " once spraying into ".On the other hand, the sterilant gas source of supply (as configuration (formulation)) that preferably in recirculation circuit, can comprise one " slowly discharging " in a kind of encapsulation described in the specification of International Patent Application PCT/AU93/00270, in this technology, the new disinfectant that produces will compensate the small leakage of feed bin and the disinfectant that is absorbed by storing products, therefore, in whole disinfecting process, all can obtain low-level (but acceptable) sterilization dose.
When feed bin 10 have bigger leakage-and the leakage of each feed bin may there are differences-time, as shown in Figure 2, the supply that utilizes microsignal processor control disinfectant is with particularly useful.If porose on the top of feed bin and bottom, gas then may occur and overflow from the hole of bottom, extraneous air infiltrates from the hole on top, consequently can cause the concentration of gaseous sterilizing agent thinning rapidly.In the case, sensor 21 and the microsignal processor 22 that is associated with it will guarantee to keep all the time the concentration of predetermined sterilant gas in the gas of supplying with feed bin 10.
Can recognize, pressure parameter in the recirculation circuit should reach following requirement, if promptly the sidewall of the bottom of each feed bin 10 and each feed bin 10 seals substantially and does not have a leakage, the air of dilution will can not be inhaled in the recirculation circuit by the hole on the feed bin top, even the varying in size of the hole on the different feed bin.Equally, if the sidewall of the top of feed bin and feed bin seals substantially, the air of dilution will can not be inhaled into recirculation circuit by the hole on the feed bin bottom.
Though mentioned hereinbefore at Australian Patent No.AU640, SIR0FLO sterilization method described in the specification of 699 (Australian patent application that stem from the mandate of international patent application No.PCT/AU 90/00268) and at the hydrogen phosphide source of supply described in the specification of international patent application No.PCT/AU 93/00270, but and nonessential employing hydrogen phosphide as sterilant gas.Any suitable gaseous sterilizing agent be can adopt in the present invention, carbonyl sulfide and cyanogen comprised.
When writing this specification, carrying out test of the present invention.Above-mentioned test is being carried out at scene, Black Hills in Australian Australian provincial capital district Commw Scient Ind Res Org, and the storage capacity that has built up each bunker there respectively is 50 tons the bunkerage that comprises three bunkers.The top of each bunker is provided with the dismountable circular hand hole that a diameter is 148mm.The bottom of each bunker or pedestal are provided with the dismountable circular hand hole that a diameter is 100mm.Because it is airtight that each above-mentioned bunker all is configured to, hand hole is used to simulate the leakage that takes place from the top and the bottom of feed bin.Testing equipment is except the control that does not comprise microsignal processor 22 and the gas from gas tank 17 output is associated, bunker formula feed bin is designed to as shown in Figure 2, therefore utilizes a timer-operated metering device that sterilant gas (hydrogen phosphide) is sprayed into steam line by artificial with (recently).
These tests of having carried out cun month show no matter comprise one, two still three feed bins in the gas recirculation circuit, are effective aspect the valid density of the sterilant gas of the present invention in keeping feed bin.Especially, test shows:
(a) since the top (only herein) of feed bin exist and leak (until and comprise three hand hole cover complete removals), the minimizing speed of hydrogen phosphide and the gross area exponent function relation of " leakages ", its variations is as follows: during the nothing leakage, y=32.979e -0.178X (y is a leak rate in the formula, and x is the gross area that leaks); When the top leak that a diameter is arranged is 148mm and three feed bins are all in recirculation circuit, y=185.9e -2.7163xWhen three feed bins all are in the recirculation circuit and the hand hole cover at three tops when all being removed, y=3203e -5.1911x
(b) exist when leaking in the pedestal (only herein) of bunker, the leakage result at the result of its leakage and Cang Ding place is similar, but its degree is not too obvious, and its variation is as follows: when the pedestal that has only a feed bin has a diameter to be the leak of 100mm, and y=41.359 -0.2759xWhen the base leak that a diameter is arranged is 100mm and three feed bins all are in the recirculation circuit, y=51.529e -0.3361x
(c) because the top and the pedestal (bottom) of bunker all has opening, the minimizing speed of hydrogen phosphide with only have when leaking the result of observation similar at the top; And
(d) deposit in all configurations of equipment in many warehousings, by regularly spraying into hydrogen phosphide, might keep the effective least concentration of hydrogen phosphide in the decontamination system, and many storehouses disinfection technology of the recirculation that the time interval of adding hydrogen phosphide is made adopt the gas that contains disinfectant is very economical, the amount of required gaseous sterilizing agent is less than employing at Australian Patent No.AU640, the amount of required gaseous sterilizing agent in flow type system during " SIROFLO " technology described in 699 the specification.
