I would like know if micro-organisms cant grow in an air pipe?

This air pipe is use for empty a asceptic tank.

Bonjour Steve, and thanks for writing in.

I'm no bio-chemist, but it seems to me that micro-organisms grow very well in hot, moist conditions, which are exactly what you will find in the discharge line from an air compressor.

The air inside the compressor is drawn from the free air outside the compressor, and that air is, too, full of bacteria.

So, yes, I would think that if you were using compressed air to blow out a sterile tank, you would contaminate it.

Bonne chance,

Bill
