Abstract
The invention describes the facility and method for controllably irradiating materials with gamma rays. Specifically, the invention concerns the processing of foodstuffs, medicines and other products by remote-controlled exposure to a radiation source while being transported by pallet carriers at adjustable distances in two parallel roller type assemblyline toting systems. A further feature of the invention is the computer-linked automated dosimetry system which is used to afford an effective protocol for product preservation, sanitization or sterilization as well as safety.
