本願発明は、
微生物を含む被処理液を貯留する濾過槽と、この濾過槽内に配設され、複数の分離膜を有する浸漬式濾過モジュールと、この浸漬式濾過モジュールの下方から分離膜洗浄用気泡を発生する第一気体供給器とを備える濾過装置であって、
上記濾過槽の下方に上記第一気体供給器と離間して配置され、酸素供給用気泡を発生する第二気体供給器をさらに備え、
上記第一気体供給器の気泡発生により第二気体供給器の上方に気泡上昇抑制領域を形成する濾過装置である。
以下、本発明に係る濾過装置の実施形態について図面を参照しつつ詳説する。
濾過槽2は、被処理液を貯留する水槽である。この濾過槽2に供給された被処理液は、濾過槽2内の微生物の活動によって有機物が除去された後、さらに浸漬式濾過モジュール3によって濾過され処理済液として回収される。
浸漬式濾過モジュール3は、濾過槽2の幅方向の一方(側面)に寄せて配置されている。上下方向に引き揃えられた複数本の中空糸膜3aと、この複数本の中空糸膜3aを上下方向に位置決めする上部保持部材3b及び下部保持部材3cとを有する。
中空糸膜3aは、内側の中空部に水を透過させる一方、被処理液に含まれる粒子の透過を阻止する多孔質状の中空糸膜である。
上記微細な凹凸はチューブ外周面全体に形成されることが好ましいが、部分的又は断続的に形成されていてもよい。また、上記微細な凹凸をチューブ外周面に形成する方法としては、例えば火炎による表面処理、レーザー照射、プラズマ照射、フッ素系樹脂等のディスパージョン塗布等を挙げることができるが、チューブ性状に影響を与えず容易に凹凸を形成できる火炎による表面処理が好ましい。
中空糸膜3aの平均外径が上記上限を超えると、中空糸膜3aの断面積に対する表面積の比が小さくなって濾過効率が低下するおそれがある。一方、中空糸膜3aの平均外径の下限としては、2mmが好ましく、2.1mmがより好ましい。中空糸膜3aの平均外径が上記下限未満の場合、中空糸膜3aの機械的強度が不十分となるおそれがある。
中空糸膜3aの平均内径が上記上限を超えると、中空糸膜3aの厚さが小さくなって機械的強度及び不純物の透過阻止効果が不十分となるおそれがある。一方、中空糸膜3aの平均内径の下限としては、0.5mmが好ましく、0.9mmがより好ましい。中空糸膜3aの平均内径が上記下限未満の場合、中空糸膜3a内の濾過済液を排出する時の圧損が大きくなるおそれがある。
中空糸膜3aの気孔率が上記上限を超える場合、中空糸膜3aの機械的強度及び耐擦過性が不十分となるおそれがある。一方、中空糸膜3aの気孔率の下限としては、75%が好ましく、78%がより好ましい。中空糸膜3aの気孔率が上記下限未満の場合、透水性が低下し、当該濾過装置1の濾過能力が低下するおそれがある。なお、気孔率とは、中空糸膜3aの体積に対する空孔の総体積の割合をいい、ASTM-D-792に準拠して中空糸膜3aの密度を測定することで求めることができる。
上部保持部材3bは、複数本の中空糸膜3aの上端部を保持する部材であり、複数本の中空糸膜3aの上部開口と連通し、濾過済液を収集する排出部(集水ヘッダ)を有する。
この排出部には排出管7が接続され、複数本の中空糸膜3aの内部に浸透した濾過済液を排出する。上部保持部材3bの外形は特に限定されず、断面形状は多角形状、円形状等とすることができる。
第一気体供給器4は、上記浸漬式濾過モジュール3の下方から、中空糸膜3aの表面を洗浄する気泡を生成する。この気泡は、中空糸膜3aの表面を擦過することで洗浄を行う。また、この気泡の平均水平径は、後述する第二気体供給器5が生成する気泡の平均水平径よりも大きいことが好ましい。この第一気体供給器4から発生する気泡の噴射圧によって、第一気体供給器4の上方から第二気体供給器5の上方に回り込み、さらに第二気体供給器5上方で被処理液の下降流又は乱流を形成する回流Yが生成される。
第二気体供給器5は、第一気体供給器4と離間して濾過槽2の下部に配置され、濾過槽2内に酸素を供給するための気泡を生成する。この気泡の上昇速度は、上記第一気体供給器4が生成する気泡の上昇速度よりも小さいことが好ましい。
仕切板6は、気泡上昇抑制領域Xと浸漬式濾過モジュール3との間に配設される板状体である。具体的には、仕切板6の下端は第一気体供給器4及び第二気体供給器5の気泡吐出口よりも下方に位置し、仕切板6の上端は浸漬式濾過モジュール3の上部保持部材3bよりも上方に位置する。また、仕切板6の上部及び下部には被処理液を流通可能な空間が形成されている。この仕切板6によって第一気体供給器4から発生する気泡が上昇途中で第二気体供給器5の上方に移動することが防止される。これにより、第一気体供給器4から発生した気泡は仕切板6の上端まで到達して初めて第二気体供給器5の上方に移動可能となるため、被処理液の回流Yがより確実に生成されて気泡上昇抑制領域Xを形成し易くなる。なお、仕切板6は、第一気体供給器4の上方と第二気体供給器5の上方とを隔離できれば長さ(図中紙面と垂直方向)は特に限定されない。
気泡上昇抑制領域Xは、第一気体供給器4の気泡発生による圧力で生じる被処理液の回流Yによって第二気体供給器5の上方に形成される。具体的に説明すると、第一気体供給器4が生成する気泡の噴射及びこの気泡の上昇に伴って発生する水流が濾過槽2の上方で第二気体供給器5側に回り込み被処理液の回流Yを生成する。この回流Yは第二気体供給器5上方に被処理液の下降流又は乱流を形成するため、この下降流又は乱流によって第二気体供給器5から発生する気泡の上昇が妨げられ、気泡の上昇速度が抑制される。
当該濾過装置1は、濾過槽2に連続的に被処理液を供給する連続方式、又は濾過槽2に被処理液を一定時間ごとに断続的に供給するバッチ方式のどちらでも使用することができる。
当該濾過装置1は、第一気体供給器4の気泡発生によって第二気体供給器5の上方に気泡上昇抑制領域Xを形成するため、第二気体供給器5から発生する酸素供給用気泡の上昇速度がこの気泡上昇抑制領域Xで低下し易くなる。その結果、酸素供給用気泡が濾過槽2の上面に到達するまでの時間が長くなり、1つの気泡が濾過槽2内の被処理液に溶存させることができる酸素量が増大し、効率よく酸素を供給することができる。これにより当該濾過装置1は濾過コストを削減することができる。
当該濾過装置1を用いた濾過方法は、上述のように微生物への酸素供給用気泡の量を低減することができるため、濾過コストを低減することができる。
今回開示された実施の形態はすべての点で例示であって制限的なものではないと考えられるべきである。本発明の範囲は、上記実施形態の構成に限定されるものではなく、特許請求の範囲によって示され、特許請求の範囲と均等の意味及び範囲内での全ての変更が含まれることが意図される。
