Abstract

The invention relates to a disinfection method and system for inactivating novel coronavirus in cold-chain food through ionizing radiation, and belongs to the technical field of disinfection and sterilization. Electron beams with the energy not higher than 10 MeV generated by an electron accelerator or gamma rays generated by cobalt-60 or cesium-137 radionuclide or X rays with the energy not higher than 5 MeV generated by an electron accelerator are adopted, on the premise of ionizing radiation disinfection whole-process biological safety guarantee, within determined effective dose range (2-7kGy), the cold-chain food which is possibly polluted by the novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) is thoroughly inactivated on inner and outer surfaces of packages, food surfaces and food gaps of the cold-chain food in combination with a matched special disinfection system, the inactivation rate of the novel coronavirus is larger than 99.9%, and the novel coronavirus after irradiation does not have infection and pathogenicity any more.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of disinfection and sterilization, and in particular relates to a disinfection method and system for ionizing radiation inactivation of novel coronavirus in cold chain food. Background technique [0002] Since the outbreak of the global new crown epidemic, as of December 21, 2020, according to the epidemic data released by Johns Hopkins University in the United States, the cumulative number of confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia in the world has reached 76.82 million, and the cumulative number of deaths has exceeded 1.69 million. Following the domestic food contamination incident at Xinfadi in Beijing, on July 3, 2020, Dalian Customs detected positive nucleic acid for the novel coronavirus from one sample of the inner wall and three samples of the outer packaging of a container loaded with frozen vannamei shrimp produced in Ecuador. On October 17 of the same year, during the investigation of the origin...
