AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
During poultry processing, poultry may have avian influenza virus on their feet, making it impossible to transport them to Asian countries where avian influenza is prevalent.
Method used
The spiral food sterilizer uses a spiral rod to transport food, and a heating system heats the process water to at least 170 degrees Fahrenheit. A filter removes particulate matter, and steam is discharged through a cover. The control system adjusts the operating parameters to ensure that the food reaches the temperature and time required to kill viruses.
Benefits of technology
It effectively kills avian influenza virus on poultry claws, ensuring product safety and meeting export requirements.

Abstract
The sterilizer comprises a slender semi-cylindrical tank body, and heated process water and a tightly matched screw rod are arranged in the tank body so as to convey food from the inlet end of the tank body to the outlet end of the tank body. Heated process water at a temperature sufficient to sterilize the food product is introduced into the tank at the outlet end of the tank and flows through the tank against the flow direction of the food product. And particulate matters in the process water are filtered out by the circulating filtering system. The cover assembly is positioned above the tank body to contain moisture in the air generated in the disinfection process and discharge steam in the tank body. The control system controls the operation of the sterilizer, and the operation of the sterilizer comprises the rotating speed of the screw rod, the amount of process water in the tank body and the temperature of the process water in the tank body.
