Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To control effectively the proliferation of various bacteria in ion exchange resin by forming a layer formed of a mixture of ion exchange with an antibacterial agent on the upstream side of an active carbon layer of a water purification section. SOLUTION: A layer 3a formed of a mixture of ion exchange resin with an antibacterial agent is formed on an upstream section of a water purification section 3 and an antibacterial active carbon layer 3 composed of active carbon in which silver or a silver compound is added is formed on the downstream side of the section, and also a porous hollow fiber membrane 3c is provided on the downstream side of the layer. Toxic ions in tap water flowed in from the lower section of the water purification section 3 are removed by the layer 3a formed of a mixture of ion exchange resin with the antibacterial agent, and then residual chlorine, musty odor, trihalomethane, agricultural chemicals and the like are removed by the antibacterial active carbon layer 3b. Lastly, micro-turbidities, bacteria and the like are removed by the porous hollow fiber membrane 3c. The proliferation of various bacteria in ion exchange resin can be controlled effectively by the arrangement.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, removal of turbidity, odor and harmful substances contained in tap water has been conventionally performed by a combination of activated carbon and a porous hollow fiber membrane. In recent years, a water purifier that removes metal ions such as lead and aluminum using an ion exchange resin has been provided. However, while foreign matter (turbidity, odor, and harmful substances) can be removed from tap water, there has been a problem that bacteria grow in the water purification section (activated carbon, ion exchange resin, porous hollow fiber membrane). As an antibacterial means of activated carbon, an effect is obtained by impregnating activated carbon with silver or a silver compound. Ion exchange resins have technical problems, and at present, antibacterial measures have not been applied.
