    摘要: A preform is sterilized by a preform sterilizer. The preform is blow-molded by a blow-molding device to manufacture a container. Next, the container is filled with a culture medium by a filling device without sterilizing the container by a container sterilizer, and the container is plugged by a plugging device. Thereafter, it is verified how much microorganism survive or propagate in the culture medium in the container. A degree of sterilization in the container sterilizer is adjusted on the basis of a verification result.

    摘要: A heating apparatus and heating method for preforms that heat a sterilized preform to a temperature at which the preform can be molded into a bottle in an aseptic atmosphere. Additionally, an aseptic blow molding machine and an aseptic blow molding method that can mold the sterilized preform into a bottle in the aseptic atmosphere, and can take out the bottle from a bottle molding machine in a state where the sterility of the bottle is maintained. A chamber covering a heating unit that heats the preform is provided, and a sterilizing apparatus that sterilizes the inside of the chamber, and an aseptic air supplying apparatus for maintaining the sterility are provided. Additionally, a chamber covering a molding unit that molds the preform into a bottle is provided, a sterilizing apparatus that sterilizes the inside of the chamber, and an aseptic air supplying apparatus for maintaining the sterility are provided.

    摘要: To simplify management of a sterilization process of a filling nozzle, a method for sterilizing a filling nozzle is provided. In the method for sterilizing a filling nozzle, hot water or a liquid chemical agent is fed to drink supply piping that feeds a drink to a plurality of filling nozzles at the same time, the hot water or liquid chemical agent is discharged from all the filling nozzles, a flow rate of the hot water or liquid chemical agent is detected at all the filling nozzles, a representative temperature of the hot water or liquid chemical agent upstream or downstream of at least one filling nozzle is measured, and the sterilization process is ended when both the flow rate at each filling nozzle and the representative temperature reach respective target values.
