Publication number: 20100025872Abstract: Provided are a production method of liposome dispersion industrially useful and the production equipment. In a process for forming liposome dispersion by dispersing a membrane material in an aqueous medium, wherein a liquid that the membrane material is dissolved or dispersed is discharged from 161a, while discharging the aqueous medium from 161b, the discharge flows are collectively crushed by a high-speed gas stream from a liquid jet port 162 into minute droplets, then, the droplets are crashed against a flow-blocking body 190 to reaggregate for the production. According to the production of the present invention, since removal of solvent is easy, and there is no need of defoaming operation, it becomes possible to produce liposome dispersion efficiently.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 11, 2007Publication date: February 4, 2010Applicant: WINGTURF CO., LTDInventor: Tomohiko Hashiba

Publication number: 20090252836Abstract: The prevent invention provides a novel gas treatment method for a fluid, and a method for producing a milk using the same, which is industrially extremely advantageous in terms of cost and efficiency. A gas treatment method for a fluid, comprises, while discharging a fluid from a fluid discharge port 161 of a two-fluid nozzle 160, crushing the discharge flow into fine droplets by a gas stream from a gas injection port 162, and then allowing the droplets to strike against a flow prevention member 190 and thereby agglomerate, so as to perform a gas treatment (gas addition, gas replacement, deaeration, or sterilization (disinfection)). According to the method for producing a milk, nitrogen is used as the gas stream, whereby homogenization and nitrogen replacement of dissolved oxygen can be performed in one and the same process.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 11, 2007Publication date: October 8, 2009Applicant: Wingturf Co., Ltd.Inventor: Tomohiko Hashiba

Publication number: 20090081075Abstract: A highly versatile method of a sterilization and a sterilization apparatus, in which objects with poor heat resistance that are to be sterilized, such as plastic products, can be sterilized without incurring thermal damage, with such a strong sterilization power that spores can be killed. A treatment chamber is filled with a treatment gas containing HCHO, and any sterilization objects placed in the treatment chamber are sterilized. During sterilization, while maintaining the interior of the treatment chamber at a pre-determined temperature (T1), the treatment gas is fed into the treatment chamber, and the sterilization objects are exposed to the treatment gas for a pre-determined period of time (h1).Type: ApplicationFiled: August 10, 2005Publication date: March 26, 2009Inventors: Tomohiko Hashiba, Koji Kawamura

Publication number: 20090072041Abstract: Oil/water mixtures recovered from the sea surface and similar areas are emulsified without the use of any emulsifier and subjected to combustion. A boat (300) is equipped with a spilled oil recovery unit (310) for recovering oil having been spilled onto the natural sea area; an emulsification unit (100) devised so that while the oil/water mixture is discharged through a liquid discharge nozzle, any of this mixture (121) having been recovered by the spilled oil recovery unit (310) is crushed by a high-speed air current sprayed from an air jet orifice disposed around the liquid discharge nozzle to thereby produce an oil/water emulsion; and a combustion unit (200) capable of combustion of the emulsion produced by the emulsification unit (100).Type: ApplicationFiled: August 17, 2005Publication date: March 19, 2009Inventor: Tomohiko Hashiba

Patent number: 7329038Abstract: A mixer capable of uniformly mixing a plurality of fluid materials without providing a mixing tank or an agitating vane. Different fluid raw materials are stored in raw material tanks, respectively. The raw materials are fed at a predetermined rate by variable restrictors so as to be supplied to a fluid supply hole of a nozzle. At this moment, the materials are not mixed. When the materials are discharged from a fluid discharge outlet, compressed air introduced from an air supply hole of the nozzle forms a high-speed vortex flow of the compressed air in front of the nozzle and the discharged raw materials are crushed into fine particles and mixed by this vortex flow, thereby obtaining a uniformly mixed material.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2002Date of Patent: February 12, 2008Assignee: Bio Media Co., Ltd.Inventor: Tomohiko Hashiba
