The invention relates to a method for sterilising hermetically closed vessels containing a liquid to be sterilised, that comprises conveying the vessels into a processing area where the vessels are submerged in an external fluid flow, heating the volume of liquid to be sterilised by electromagnetic waves at a rate higher than 280°C per second to a processing temperature T between 200 and 660°C, agitating the vessel when heating the liquid, and depending on the value of the processing temperature T, exposing the liquid to a pulsed alternating electric field immediately or shortly after heating the liquid. |
