Abstract

A pulsed electric field processor includes: a first processor that performs first processing on an object to be processed, the first processing being pulsed electric field processing, the object to be processed being in liquid form; a first pipe through which the object to be processed having passed through the first processor passes; a second processor that performs second processing on the object to be processed, the second processing including the pulsed electric field processing, the object to be processed having passed through the first pipe flowing into the second processor; a second pipe through which the object to be processed having passed through the second processor passes; and a third processor that performs third processing on the object to be processed, the third processing including the pulsed electric field processing, the object to be processed having passed through the second pipe passes through the third processor.

Dependent claims

A pulsed electric field processor comprising:

a first processor configured to perform first processing on an object to be processed, the first processing being pulsed electric field processing, the object to be processed being in liquid form;
a first pipe through which the object to be processed having passed through the first processor passes;
a second processor configured to perform second processing on the object to be processed, the second processing including the pulsed electric field processing, the object to be processed having passed through the first pipe flows into the second processor;
a second pipe through which the object to be processed having passed through the second processor passes;
and
a third processor configured to perform third processing on the object to be processed, the third processing including the pulsed electric field processing, the object to be processed having passed through the second pipe passes through the third processor, wherein
radiation performance of the second pipe is higher than radiation performance of the first pipe.
