System for continuous sterilization


To sterilize a large volume of medium in a reasonable time, the flow rate through the sterilizer must be high. For example, suppose that you wish to sterilize 100,000 liters in 100 minutes. The pumping rate would be 1000 l/m. If the holding time in the coil must be 2 minutes, the coil volume must be 2000 l. Use the applet to calculate the length of coil for various diameters.
