ELECTROPORATION REACTOR FOR CONTINUOUSLY PROCESSING PRODUCTS IN THE FORM OF PIECES

摘要

In an electroporation reactor for continuously processing products in the form of pieces wherein a drum with carrier elements is rotatably supported in a housing of dielectric material in a process liquid through which the products are moved from an inlet to an outlet through a degasification zone, a reaction zone and a discharge zone at the bottom of the housing, a group of electrodes is arranged adjacent the treatment zone and a high voltage is supplied to the electrodes within not more than 3 musec generating between the electrodes and the grounded drum a large potential difference for the electroporation of all the walls of the process pieces while passing through the reaction zone.
