I'm worried about the same question right now, as we are starting up a Water Store in in a remote village in Haiti, where people will bring the typical 5-gallon "Culligan" bottles to be filled with potable water.

My daughter is a professional winemaker. At the winery, they stearilize huge tanks and smaller (stainless steel) barrels by rinsing them with "ozone water". In their application, the ozone water is generated by a $3,000 machine, but perhaps smaller equipment is available.

The big advantage of ozone is that it dissipates within hours, leaving no trace of any chemical, odor, scent, or flavor -- a "must" if you're making fine wine.

The simple, cheap way to do sterilize is with a very weak (1%) chlorine solution -- ie. a few drops of bleach in water.
