Abstract
A content-filling system (10) includes a water sterilization line (50) that sterilizes water without heating, an undiluted-solution sterilization line (70) that heats and sterilizes a product undiluted solution, and a filling device (20) that is connected to the water sterilization line (50) and the undiluted-solution sterilization line (70) and that fills the water and the product undiluted solution in bottles (100).
Claims35
A content-filling system comprising:
- a water sterilization line that sterilizes water without heating;
- an undiluted-solution sterilization line that heats and sterilizes a product undiluted solution;
- and
- a filling device that is connected to the water sterilization line and the undiluted-solution sterilization line and that fills the water and the product undiluted solution in a container.
A content-filling system comprising:
- a water sterilization line that sterilizes water;
- an undiluted-solution sterilization line that heats and sterilizes a product undiluted solution;
- and
- a filling device that is connected to the water sterilization line and the undiluted-solution sterilization line and that fills the water and the product undiluted solution in a container,
- wherein the water sterilization line sterilizes the water such that an F0 value is 0.00029 or more and less than 3.1 in a case where a content that is manufactured by diluting the product undiluted solution with the water has a pH of less than 4.5,
- wherein the water sterilization line sterilizes the water such that the F0 value is 3.1 or more and 100 or less in a case where the content has a pH of 4.5 or more, and
- wherein the F0 value is an F value that is calculated as an expression:
- F=∫t0t110(T−Tr)/Zdt [Math. 1]
- (where T is a freely determined sterilization temperature (° C.), 10{circumflex over ( )}{(T−Tr)/Z} is a lethality ratio at the freely determined sterilization temperature T, Tr is a reference temperature (° C.), and Z is a Z value (10° C.)).
A content-filling system comprising:
- a water sterilization line that sterilizes water;
- an undiluted-solution sterilization line that heats and sterilizes a product undiluted solution;
- and
- a filling device that is connected to the water sterilization line and the undiluted-solution sterilization line and that fills the water and the product undiluted solution in a container,
- wherein the water sterilization line sterilizes the water such that an F0 value is 3.1 or more and 100 or less, and
- wherein the F0 value is an F value that is calculated as an expression:
- F=∫t0t110(T−Tr)/Zdt [Math. 2]
- (where T is a freely determined sterilization temperature (° C.), 10{circumflex over ( )}{(T−Tr)/Z} is a lethality ratio at the freely determined sterilization temperature T, Tr is a reference temperature (° C.), and Z is a Z value (10° C.)).
