A large number of facts show that the drug carried out by microwave drying, sterilization, greatly superior to the traditional hot and dry sterilization process. 

 A: Liquid sterilization 

 Market in recent years the emergence of a new nutritional supplement - oral. As we all know, oral solution containing sugar, biological agents and rich in nutrients, it is easily contaminated. Some oral solution on the market, because there is no good sterilization, bacterial growth in storage, producing gas, the user in the use of toxic and explosive bottle when the accident occurred. Some oral manufacturers, in order to prevent bacterial growth, add the preservatives in oral solution, the resulting product can not leave the country. Microwave sterilization method can effectively solve these problems, the following oral liquid were analyzed using microwave sterilization. 

 1) Sterilization 

 Traditional methods for the use of high-temperature steam sterilization, need heating to 120 ℃, for 20 minutes before being killed bacteria. The microwave sterilization: 

 A E. coli and Bacillus subtilis as long as the heating in the microwave field to 70 ℃, for 2 minutes were all killed. 

 B thermophilic Bacillus subtilis fat, using traditional methods to be heated to 100 ℃, for 30 minutes, can not be killed. In the microwave field, the temperature 70 ℃, for 2 minutes, be killed. User feedback information indicates that a 5 kW microwave sterilization devices, 50 seconds to kill bacteria, 8 kW microwave device 35 seconds to kill bacteria. 

 2) the impact on the level of active ingredient oral 

 According to foreign literature, microwave sterilization, pharmaceutical active ingredient does not break down the traditional method of sterilization, decomposition of the active ingredients of drugs was significant (see West German patent). Qinhuangdao, a pharmaceutical factory (using my company's technology products) and compared with a few sample test results and reported the same. 

 3) The economic effects of microwave integrated analysis of oral 

 It is estimated that the country now has 5,000 oral manufacturer of microwave equipment used for sterilization of oral manufacturers less than 5%. If we can be sterilized by microwave equipment can not only improve the product grade, quality problems to overcome oral solution, but also for the country as a collective, but also for the majority of oral manufacturers save a lot of manpower and material resources. 

 A relatively traditional sterilization process, the microwave sterilization equipment, low cost, small footprint, the traditional high temperature and pressure equipment, be equipped with boilers, pressure cookers, and therefore expensive, large footprint. 

 B microwave equipment energy consumption, high temperature and high energy-consuming equipment. 

 C microwave equipment operator less, only 2 - 3, while the high temperature and pressure equipment to operate with more than a dozen staff and management. 

 D microwave equipment noise is very small, while the high temperature and pressure equipment noise pollution seriously affect the surrounding environment. 

 E microwave oral solution, is low-temperature sterilization, to retain the original nutrients, the clear color and good taste; and oral temperature and pressure treatment, destruction of the original nutrients, color and turbidity, there is precipitation, taste bad. 

 In summary, microwave sterilization process on the oral application of technology to the traditional medicine is a challenge, is a revolution in medical technology, we can expect in the near future, all manufacturers will use oral oral microwave liquid sterilization process. 

 II: Microwave on pills, capsules, tablets drying and sterilization 

 Traditional pills, capsules, tablets and dry and steam sterilization are used for the tunnel oven, which not only requires a lot of production plants, but also an expensive air-conditioning equipment, consume large amounts of energy, and very long drying time, generally take several hours or several days. Microwave equipment to pills, capsules, tablets drying and sterilization, can reduce labor intensity and improve the quality and guarantee the product of one Emotion. 

 In pharmaceutical production in order to ensure uniformity of drugs and good liquidity, often the raw material made of particles with certain methods (pills, capsules, tablets). The thermal effect of microwave and non-thermal effects, low-temperature drying and sterilization, microwave energy radiated to the drugs, making drugs the internal temperature, resulting in pressure to accelerate the transfer of water molecules are bound, is processed materials in the water gradually outside the evaporation, this time in the microwave equipment and then pass to the appropriate hot air out of the water will evaporate away. In order to ensure product quality, should be strictly controlled air temperature, humidity and traffic. Microwave drying of drugs not only significantly improve product quality, and will greatly reduce the drying time and save a lot of energy and economic benefits are obvious. 

 In addition, the microwave can be a variety of Chinese and Western medicines, herbs for drying, dehydration, disinfection, sterilization, insecticide, anti-mildew treatment. Can greatly facilitate the manufacturers of drugs and raw materials storage and safekeeping. It is expected that high-tech microwave application in this field will dominate.
