摘要:
The invention relates to devices (10) and methods for pasteurizing and/or sterilizing particulate material. The devices contain at least one electron source (20) for generating an electron beam and a treatment zone (19) in which the material can be pasteurized and/or sterilized by the electron beam. In a first aspect, the device (10) additionally comprises a vibration surface (11) which can be excited so as to vibrate in order to convey and individualize the material, wherein the first vibration surface (11) has a plurality of grooves (12) into which the material can be conveyed and by means of which the material can be individualized. In a second aspect, the device (10) has a material channel (21) in which the material can be pasteurized and/or sterilized by the electron beam in the region of the treatment zone (19). The device (10) has at least one auxiliary channel (22) through which a fluid can flow and which runs at least partly between the electron source (20) and the material channel (21) and is fluidically separated from the material channel (21). The invention additionally relates to a cartridge (24) for inserting into a device (10) for pasteurizing and/or sterilizing particulate material.
