Abstract: A method and an apparatus for producing and providing sterile water comprising an inlet for process water; a recuperator for preheating process water and for cooling down the sterile water; a heating circuit comprising a pump, a heater for heating preheated process water and a heat retention section for keeping heated process water hot; a temperature sensor for measuring a current temperature of the sterile water leaving the heat retention section; a flow control valve located downstream of the temperature sensor; and a bypass between the flow control valve and the heater. The flow control valve keeps a volume flow in the heating circuit constant, the recuperator cools down the sterile water of a first partial volume flow, when such a first partial volume flow of sterile water is taken from the heating circuit, the bypass returns into the heating circuit a second partial volume flow of sterile water.

Abstract: An apparatus for forming plastic preforms into plastic containers with at least one forming station which forms the plastic preforms into the plastic containers by the action of a flowable medium, wherein the forming station has a blow mould which forms a cavity, within which the plastic preforms are formed into the plastic containers. The blow mould has a base part which has an inner contour which forms a base of the containers, wherein the base part has at least one channel for conducting a temperature control medium for temperature control of the base part. A course of the channel is adapted to a course of the inner contour and/or the channel has, on its inner surface facing the temperature control medium, structures and/or cross-sectional changes which influence the flow of the temperature control medium through the channel.
