Methods and apparatuses for applying agent to objects

This invention describes a system designed to thoroughly clean objects, both inside and out, using various agents like gas, vapor, or plasma. It operates by placing an object within an enclosed chamber and attaching a removable interface to its internal channels, allowing the cleaning agent to flow through the object's interior. The system also ensures the agent contacts the object's exterior, and can include features like dehumidification or vacuum/pressure devices to optimize the cleaning process.

Why it matters: Since 2011, advancements in low-temperature plasma generation and automated control systems have made sophisticated sterilization processes more efficient and easier to implement. This could simplify the technical challenges of applying various agents as described.
