Abstract

PURPOSE:To supply a solvent of the amt. corresponding to the amt. of a permeated liquid automatically and to suppress bubbling of liquid to be treated without requiring a liquid level controller, etc., by forming a hermetic system of a supply liquid tan, supply pipeline, membrane module and return pipeline and connecting the hermetic system and solvent supply system. CONSTITUTION:The hermetic circulation system is formed of the hermetic type supply liquid tank 1, the membrane module 2, the piping 11 having a supply pipe P1, and the return piping 14 for a concn. liquid. The liquid to be treated such as fermented broth contg. bacteria and amylase is supplied from a tank 3 for the liquid to be treated to the tank 1 and the evacuation of the tank 1 inside is executed by a piping 16. Valves V1, V3 are then closed and a valve V2 is opened to feed the liquid to be treated in the tank 1 by the pump P1 and the piping 11 to the membrane module 2 where the permeated liquid contg. the amylase is recovered from the piping 15. The concd. liquid is returned from the piping 14 to the tank 1. Since the pressure in the hermetic system decreases by as much as the permeated liquid, the solvent in a solvent tank 4 is supplied at the amt. corresponding to the amt. of the permeated liquid from a piping 13 into the tank 1 by the operation of the pump P3.
