Abstract

The inventive high performance method relates to sterilising contaminated objects. Said objects are placed in a sterilisation chamber which comprises at least one discharge line. The discharge line(s) are connected to the side of the sterilisation chamber and supplied with a gas flow. The contaminated objects are exposed to the action of sterilising agents which are arranged in a post-discharge area or in an area of plasma excitation which is generated at the level of the discharge line(s) by exposing the gas flow to the action of an electric field at a ratio R= (SCD)/ (SCS), wherein (SCD) is the cross section of the discharge line or the totality of the cross sections of the discharge lines, and (SCS) is the cross section of the sterilisation chamber, said ratio is equal to 0.05<R<0.70. Said method makes it possible to sterilise an important surface of contaminated objects by one and only treatment.
