METHOD FOR INERTING TIGHT PACKAGES AND PLANT FOR IMPLEMENTING SUCH METHOD

摘要

The method applied to the inerting of tight packages implements together or separately the desoxygenation of empty packages in inert atmosphere, the purge of the gaseous sky of the packages after filling and before closing by using an inert fluid, in inert atmosphere, each operation being effected by two simultaneous injections of fluid; said liquid or pasty product being optionally desoxygenated by an inert gas. This technique is applicable to the preservation of any liquid, pasty, solid and powdery food product, to pharmaceutical and biological products.
