METHOD OF AND APPARATUS FOR BIOCIDAL STERILIZATION USING CYCLIC SUBATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE CONDITIONING ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Conditioning of goods for subsequent sterilization with a biocidal agent in a sealable chamber includes removal of air, and moistening and heating the goods to the desired temperature levels. Controlled evacuation of the chamber and coordinated admission of conditioning vapor into the chamber provides cyclic variations in chamber pressure between pre- selected subatmospheric pressures to subject goods in the chamber to a plurality of cyclic subatmospheric pressure pulses. The time required for the cyclic pressure variations is responsive to load characteristics, including heat and moisture absorption characteristics of the goods being condi- tioned, and is independent of prescribed times or direct measurement of load temperature. The subatmospheric pressure levels are selected based on the temperature-pressure rela- tionship of the conditioning vapor so that chamber temperature during cyclic pulsing does not exceed the desired steriliza- tion temperature.
