Ionisos Iberian organises the technical day 'And-beam: the alternative to the sterilisation oxide of etileno and radiation gamma'

24/05/2012

24 May 2012

Ionisos Iberian has organised the technical day 'And-beam: the alternative to the sterilisation oxide of etileno and radiation gamma' that pretends to offer a global vision on the main technical and methodologies of sterilisation that use inside the sanitary ware sector, chemist and veterinary, resaltando the sterilisation by means of radiation by electrons accelerated (and-beam).

The reports will carry out by expert professionals in the matter, that will contribute so much his theoretical knowledges, as practical.

Aims:

Know the advantages of the sterilisation by electrons of high power in front of other technologies.
Give the guidelines to be followed to realise the change of the method of sterilisation (Of oxide of etileno or radiation gamma to radiation by electrons of high power).
Know how comport some plastic materials in front of the process of radiation, hand-held of the main suppliers of raw materials.
Know which are the proofs that it is necessary to carry out to guarantee the esterilidad of the process and the aptitude of the materials used during the treatment of irradiation.

The course will take place on June 28 from 10:00 to 18:00 hours in the Ayre Hotel Gran Vía (Av. Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes 322, Barcelona). Amount: 150 + VAT.
