PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new circulation type steam sterilization system which suppresses initial cost, requires little time and labor for maintenance, and enables long-term continuous operation.SOLUTION: In a circulation type steam sterilization system 1, an object to be sterilized W charged into a sterilizer 2 is sterilized by being brought into direct contact with steam, exhaust steam S2 after the sterilization treatment is reused for the sterilization treatment by a circulation path 5, and not a root type circulation blower but an ejector pump 4 is applied for sending steam into the sterilizer 2. In the ejector pump 4 for sending steam into the sterilizer 2, drive steam S1, such as superheated steam, is sent into the ejector pump 4 to suck the exhaust steam S2 into the ejector pump 4, and after mixing and compressing both steam in the ejector pump 4, the mixed and compressed steam S3 is sent into the sterilizer 2 to circulate the steam. |
