Description

气动恒压的液体连续送料装置及方法Pneumatic constant pressure liquid continuous feeding device and method 技术领域Technical field
本发明属于液体输送技术领域,特指一种气动恒压的液体连续送料装置及方法。The invention belongs to the technical field of liquid transportation, and particularly relates to a pneumatic constant pressure liquid continuous feeding device and method.
背景技术Background technique
过滤单元广泛应用于水处理、化工、食品工业,近几十年新兴的生物技术领域中,过滤技术更是得到了前所未有的发展与应用。根据液体过滤膜的孔径不同可分为反渗透、超滤、纳滤、微滤。在生物技术领域,反渗透应用于注射水生产,超滤用于蛋白质浓缩和缓冲体系置换,纳滤主要用于除病毒过滤,微滤主要用于除菌过滤和颗粒过滤;近年来对过滤膜材质进行复合设计或表面修饰,发展出了深层过滤膜与离子交换过滤膜,前者主要用于料液的高效澄清,后者主要应用于蛋白质精细纯化。The filter unit is widely used in water treatment, chemical industry and food industry. In the emerging biotechnology field in recent decades, the filtration technology has been developed and applied as never before. According to the pore size of the liquid filtration membrane, it can be divided into reverse osmosis, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, and microfiltration. In the field of biotechnology, reverse osmosis is used for injection water production, ultrafiltration for protein concentration and buffer system replacement, nanofiltration for virus filtration, microfiltration for sterilization filtration and particle filtration; The material is compounded or surface-modified, and a deep filtration membrane and an ion exchange filtration membrane have been developed. The former is mainly used for efficient clarification of the feed liquid, and the latter is mainly used for fine purification of the protein.
操作压力是所有过滤单元操作的重要工艺参数,任何一种商业化过滤材料都必须向用户提供正常操作的压力范围。操作压力过低,料液透过率低,降低工作效率;操作压力过高,容易引起浓差极化,同样导致料液透过率降低,如操作压力超过一定范围将导致过滤介质击穿,料液污染,因此为过滤单元操作提供经过优化的恒定压力对于提高过滤效率十分重要。恒定压力对过滤的重要性在生物制药领域的除病毒过滤操作单元尤为明显,在纳滤除病毒过程中,中途压力释放将导致某些滤膜的病毒过滤效率下降,从而增加产品的病毒污染风险[LaCasse D,et al,Impact of process interruption on virus retention of small-virus filters.Bioprocess International,2013,11(10):34]。 Operating pressure is an important process parameter for all filtration unit operations, and any commercial filtration material must provide the user with a range of pressures for normal operation. The operating pressure is too low, the liquid permeability is low, and the working efficiency is lowered; if the operating pressure is too high, the concentration polarization is easily caused, and the liquid permeability is also lowered. If the operating pressure exceeds a certain range, the filter medium is broken down. Feed fluid contamination, so providing optimized constant pressure for filtration unit operation is important to increase filtration efficiency. The importance of constant pressure to filtration is particularly evident in the biopharmaceutical sector. In the process of nanofiltration, the release of pressure in the middle of the process will result in a decrease in the efficiency of virus filtration of certain membranes, thereby increasing the risk of viral contamination of the product. [LaCasse D, et al, Impact of process interruption on virus retention of small-virus filters. Bioprocess International, 2013, 11(10): 34].
目前工业生产上为过滤单元提供液体驱动压力的主要为离心泵、蠕动泵或隔膜泵。泵可以提供稳定的流速,但由于过滤是一个动态变化的过程,随着处理量的增加,过滤膜逐渐堵塞,系统压力将越来越高,因此一般自动化程度较高的过滤系统都将过滤器进料口的压力作为反馈信号来控制泵的转速,以维持操作压力恒定或在一定范围之内。世界上各大过滤操作整体解决方案供应商都推出了各自的用于生物制药的高度自动化的过滤系统,如Millipore公司的

Pall公司的AllegroTMMVP,Sartorius公司的

旭化成公司的PlanovaTMVirus FIltration Controller等,另外配置有恒压功能的自动化层析系统,如GE公司的AKTA系列,也常被用作过滤操作的供料系统。尽管上述自动化系统可以解决过滤操作中的恒压问题,但使用泵作为过滤操作的驱动力存在以下缺点:1、离心泵、蠕动泵产生的机械剪切力对蛋白质具有一定的破坏作用[李国荣等.泵对生物制品工艺的重要影响.流程工业(制药),2014,10:68];2、蠕动泵、隔膜泵工作时产生压力脉冲,难以实现较高程度的恒压;3、恒压工作范围小,尤其在低压工作范围,泵的转速较低,由于控制较低的泵转速在技术上较为困难,容易造成系统压力不稳;4、配有伺服系统的设备价格昂贵。
At present, the centrifugal driving, peristaltic pump or diaphragm pump for the liquid driving pressure of the filtering unit in industrial production is mainly used. The pump can provide a stable flow rate, but since the filtration is a dynamic process, as the throughput increases, the filter membrane becomes clogged and the system pressure will become higher and higher. Therefore, the filter system with a higher degree of automation will filter. The pressure at the feed port acts as a feedback signal to control the speed of the pump to maintain the operating pressure constant or within a certain range. The world's major filtration solutions total solution providers have launched their own highly automated filtration systems for biopharmaceuticals, such as Millipore's

Asahi Kasei Company Planova TM Virus FIltration Controller etc. In addition, automated chromatography system configuration of the voltage function, AKTA as GE's series, is also often used as a feed system the filter operation. Although the above-mentioned automatic system can solve the constant pressure problem in the filtration operation, the use of the pump as the driving force of the filtration operation has the following disadvantages: 1. The mechanical shear force generated by the centrifugal pump and the peristaltic pump has a certain destructive effect on the protein [李国荣等Pumps have an important impact on the process of biological products. Process Industry (Pharmaceutical), 2014, 10:68]; 2, peristaltic pump, diaphragm pump generates pressure pulses when working, it is difficult to achieve a higher degree of constant pressure; 3, constant pressure work The range is small, especially in the low-pressure working range, the pump speed is low, because the control of the lower pump speed is technically difficult, it is easy to cause the system pressure to be unstable; 4, the equipment equipped with the servo system is expensive.
