On the other hand, it is conceivable to lower the temperature of the disinfectant by increasing the concentration of the disinfectant or by using a disinfectant having a strong disinfecting ability such as peracetic acid.
Sterilization of PET containers before filling beverages is performed using a germicide composed of a mixed solution of peracetic acid and hydrogen peroxide solution. However, when a beverage is filled in a container sterilized using the above-described sterilization method, molds and the like are generated on the finished product, although only occasionally, the mold spores and the like that cannot be sterilized in the container and multiply remain. As a result, the container may have no value as a product, and there has been a demand for a method that can completely sterilize a container at room temperature.
