Abstract

PURPOSE:To dissolve ozone through a sterilizing effect produced by ultraviolet rays and by means of ozone to produce oxygen in a nascent state and to improve the sterilizing action of ozone by a method wherein ozone gas is brought into contact with objects to be sterilized arranged in a multilayer state and the objects to be sterilized are irradiated with ultraviolet rays. CONSTITUTION:In an ultraviolet ray lamp 21, ultraviolet rays generated by the ultraviolet ray lamp are reflected by a reflection plate and transmit a quartz glass 23 and objects 25 to be sterilized are irradiated therewith. An agitating rod 24 agitates the objects to be sterilized conveyed by a belt conveyor 28. An ozone generator 27 dissolves ozone gas passing between the objects to be sterilized arranged in a layerlike state to improve a sterilizing force.
