  • Patent number: 10464024
    Abstract: A water treatment device is provided with a separation membrane device having a separation membrane for concentrating dissolved components and dispersed components from water to be treated and obtaining permeated water; a first deposit detecting unit provided in a non-permeated water branch line branched from a non-permeated water line for discharging non-permeated water in which dissolved components and dispersed components have been concentrated, using part of the non-permeated water that has branched off as a detection liquid, and having a first separation membrane for detection in which the detection liquid is separated into permeated water for detection and non-permeated water for detection; and first flow rate measuring devices for separated liquid for detection that measure the flow rates of one or both of the permeated water for detection and the non-permeated water for detection separated by the first separation membrane for detection.

  • Patent number: 9975657
    Abstract: Provided is a sterilization device for a container which exhibits high sterilization performance while being low in cost. A heating medium is positioned in a sterilant passage so as to block the downstream end thereof in the direction in which the liquid sterilant is discharged. A ventilation passage is formed in the lateral surface of a tube body of a sterilant supply tube, on the upstream side in the direction in which the liquid sterilant is discharged in relation to the heating medium. A sterilant supply unit sterilizes the inner-peripheral surface of a container as a result of the sterilant vaporizing upon reaching the heating medium, leaking to the exterior via the ventilation passage formed in the lateral surface of the tube body, and adhering to the inner-peripheral surface of the container.

  • Publication number: 20180104650
    Abstract: A membrane separation apparatus includes: a lower support body that includes a water-to-be-treated introduction port and a concentrated water discharge port; an upper support body that includes a permeated water discharge port; a separation membrane that is provided between the lower support body and the upper support body, and that separates water to be treated into permeated water and concentrated water; and a first sheet-like elastic member that is provided between the separation membrane and the lower support body, and that forms seals between the separation membrane and the lower support body and between the lower support body and the upper support body.

  • Publication number: 20170275189
    Abstract: A deposit monitoring device includes a non-permeated water line discharging non-permeated water where dissolved components and dispersed components are concentrated from water to be treated from a separation membrane device for obtaining permeated water by concentrating the dissolved components and dispersed components from water to be treated by a separation membrane; a first deposit detecting unit using part of the non-permeated water branched off as a detection liquid, and having a first separation membrane for detection in which the detection liquid is separated into permeated water for detection and non-permeated water for detection; a deposition condition altering device altering deposition conditions for deposits in the first separation membranes for detection; and first flow rate measuring devices for separated liquid detection that measure the flow rates of one or both of the permeated water for detection and the non-permeated water for detection separated by the first separation membrane for detecti
