Patent number: 8556494Abstract: A system for manufacturing an emulsified/dispersed liquid has first and second emulsification/dispersion devices which produce the emulsified/dispersed liquid by emulsifying/dispersing emulsification/dispersion material in a liquid mixture into a medium liquid in the liquid mixture. A multistage pressure/temperature control device of a multistage type cools the emulsified/dispersed liquid discharged by the second emulsification/dispersion device while applying a backpressure which can prevent occurrence of bubbling to the first and second emulsification/dispersion devices. The multistage pressure/temperature control device reduces the pressure of the emulsified/dispersed liquid gradually or in stages, and finally lowers the pressure of the emulsified/dispersed liquid to a pressure that bubbling is not caused if the emulsification/dispersion liquid is released into an atmospheric condition.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2012Date of Patent: October 15, 2013Inventor: Mitsuru Nakano

Publication number: 20090104675Abstract: Lactic acid with high optical purity that has not previously been achieved is produced. It has been found that the optical purity of lactic acid is reduced as the racemization reaction of lactic acid proceeds when lactic acid coexists with glycerol. By reducing the amount of glycerol prior to concentrating lactic acid by heating, the optical purity of lactic acid after concentration by heating can be maintained at a high level.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 20, 2008Publication date: April 23, 2009Inventors: Ikuo Yamaguchi, Osamu Saotome, Shigeru Kuromiya, Tohru Ohnishi, Noriko Yasutani, Satoshi Saitoh, Makoto Mouri, Mitsuru Nakano, Arimitsu Usuki, Nobuhiro Ishida, Kenro Tokuhiro, Eiji Nagamori, Haruo Takahashi

Patent number: 7284716Abstract: Disclosed is an agitating device (3) to be disposed in a batch-type vessel or the like. The agitating device (3) has an upper cover plate (5), a bottom cover plate (6), an impeller (7), an inner screen member (8), and first and second outer screen members (9, 10). When a mixed liquid including a dispersoid and a dispersion medium passes through liquid communication holes (19) of the inner screen member (8) and liquid communication holes (22, 25) of the outer screen members (9, 10) during the course where it flows outward from the impeller (7) to get out of an interplate space, the circumferential component of the flow vector of the mixed liquid is mostly eliminated to allow the mixed liquid to have substantially only the radial component. This prevents the generation of vortexes so as to apply a sufficiently high shearing force to the mixed liquid to effectively prevent the formation of macro bubbles in the mixed liquid.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 2003Date of Patent: October 23, 2007Inventors: Mitsuru Nakano, Shoji Fukushima, Hisashi Kimura
