Abstract

A discharge method discharges an at least partially flexible container without contamination. The container (1) is discharged into a base body (10). A liner (20) encloses a filling opening (11) of the base body (10) and is secured to the base body (10). A filling end (21) of the liner (20) is folded inwards such that a receiving region forms for the container (1). The receiving region is sealed such that a discharge opening formed by a knife (15) allows the container (1) to be discharged while being completely sealed off to the exterior.
