Benny. As I understand it, the meat would come in on trucks, in one
door on pallets, run through on a conveyor, zapped, out the other
door, back into the truck. The meat must come to their facility.
They are not set up at any food processors. However they do have
12 facilities across the US. You can probably understand it better
if you go their site. WWW.Sterigenics.com. I have no idea on any
estimates of growth if irradiation is approved for meat. E.coli
incidents are happening regularly, it almost always is in hamburger.
Irradiation kills all the micro organisms within hamburger, it is
not just a surface treatment. JK
