ELECTRON BEAM IRRADIATION EQUIPMENT

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide electron beam irradiation equipment capable of surely performing sterilization and pasteurization treatment of a matter to be irradiated by surely and uniformly irradiating the entire surface of the granular matter to be irradiated with electron beams.

SOLUTION: The electron beam irradiation equipment comprises: a vacuum container 2 which has an irradiation space 3 through which the matter to be irradiated passes, which is positioned in an orthogonal direction where the matter to be irradiated passes through and which has a plurality of irradiation windows 4; an electron beam generation part 10 arranged corresponding to the irradiation windows 4 of the vacuum container; and a carrying mechanism 20 for allowing the matter to be irradiated to pass through at prescribed intervals in the irradiation space of the vacuum container. A plurality of electron beam generation parts 5 irradiate the matter to be irradiated with uniform electron beams. The matter to be irradiated can be treated even when it is a deformed granular matter in addition to a circular granular matter.
