Abstract

Abstract The author has made an attempt to develop an alternative method of sealing stainless steel containers with stainless steel lid; also used open top sanitary cans with stainless steel lid using hot pack and creation of vacuum seal by methods described as "Press-in and Push-over". The airtightness was tested by exposure to 20" vacuum and exposure to ammonia. Necessary sketch and diagram has been provided. The author proposes concept of stainless steel container as an alternative to open top sanitary cans, as stainless steel containers can be reused. He has also proposed the concept of recycling the stainless steel container by giving examples of recycling of bottles in aerated drink industry.
