Abstract

The invention relates to a disinfection method and system for ionizing radiation inactivation of novel coronavirus in cold chain food, belonging to the technical field of disinfection and sterilization. The present invention adopts an electron beam produced by an electron accelerator with an energy not higher than 10 MeV, or a gamma ray produced by a cobalt-60 or cesium-137 radionuclide, or an X-ray with an energy not higher than 5 MeV produced by an electron accelerator. Under the premise of ensuring the biological safety of the whole process of ionizing radiation disinfection, within the determined effective dose range (2~7 kGy), combined with the supporting special disinfection system, the cold chain food that may be contaminated by the new coronavirus (2019‑nCoV) is packaged inside and outside Surfaces, food surfaces and food gaps are completely inactivated, the inactivation rate of the new coronavirus is greater than 99.9%, and the new coronavirus after irradiation no longer has the ability to infect and cause disease.

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...
