Application system with recycle and related use of antimicrobial quaternary ammonium compound

This invention describes a system for spraying a dilute antimicrobial liquid onto raw poultry. The liquid is recycled, and its concentration is automatically maintained by adding more antimicrobial as needed. Periodically, the used liquid is diverted, and the antimicrobial is removed, possibly using carbon filters, before disposal.

Why it matters: The increasing availability of low-cost, precise sensors and control systems makes automated chemical dosing and recycling more efficient and reliable. This aligns with growing industry demands for sustainable food processing and reduced chemical waste.
