  • the main stream of fluid is fed directly to the residence module.
  • the second filter module after the residence time module serves to retain a fluid containing vaccine as a product through the second filter medium of the second filter module while the contaminants can pass through it.
  • a membrane system as the first treatment stage can also be followed by the removal of micropollutants as a downstream treatment stage.
  • the membrane filtration can be followed by an activated carbon adsorber column, through which the permeate from the membrane filtration is passed.

  • the device by means of the device, removal of micropollutants by a particularly fluid reactive substance from contaminated liquids or contaminated water is made possible in a reaction space, the reaction space being formed between a first membrane and a second membrane.

  • a reactive substance is used in particular to remove micropollutants from the liquid
  • the reactive substance or several reactive substances can have any aggregate state, such as solid, liquid and/or gaseous Micro-pollutants a flocculation and thus a aggregation of the micro-pollutants are caused.
  • the reactive substances are preferably a dissolved and/or solid substance.
  • the type of reactive substance such as oxidizing agent, adsorbent and/or ion exchanger, specifies the type of reaction of the reactive substance with the micropollutants and thus the way in which they are removed.
  • the reaction of the reactive substances with the micropollutants can be, for example, an oxidation, adsorption, precipitation, coagulation, flocculation, ion exchange and/or a catalytic reaction.
  • the reactive substance can also be a biogenic substance, for example enzymes produced by fungal and/or bacterial cultures or a biotechnological product.
  • the "reaction space” is in particular a space in which the micropollutants react with the reactive substance or substances and/or are removed from the liquid.
  • the reaction space is spatially delimited in particular by the first membrane and the second membrane Reactive space is connected to a connection for feeding the reactive substance into the reaction space and/or a connection for discharging the reactive substance from the reaction space or is spatially delimited by them.
  • the reaction space thus represents in particular a type of container, with two container walls preferably passing through the first membrane and the second membrane are formed.
  • a “membrane” is in particular a flat, partially permeable structure and thus has structures which are permeable to at least one component and/or substance of a liquid contacting the membrane and impermeable to other components and/or substances
  • the membrane can be a porous or dense membrane. Membranes differ in particular in the pore size or molar mass of the largest components that can still pass, the separation principle, the selectivity, the filtration pressure and/or other properties.

  • the outflowing, treated liquid cannot be completely free of micropollutants, for example, but only essentially free of micropollutants, because a small amount of micropollutants due to membrane slippage, membrane fouling, membrane aging and/or membrane destruction still pass through the membrane despite the membrane retention actually intended and are thus in of the liquid being treated.
  • the second membrane has a smaller pore size than the first membrane such that the reactive substance can be retained in the reaction space.
  • the loaded and / or used reactive substance remains within the reaction chamber, while the liquid to be treated flows through the first membrane into the reaction chamber and the cleaned, treated liquid flows out of the reaction chamber via the second membrane.
  • the residence times of the liquid and the reactive substance in the device are decoupled.
  • the type of the first membrane and the second membrane and thus the respective properties are selected depending on the properties of the micropollutants to be removed and the reactive substances used as well as the raw liquid quality.
  • the first membrane preferably has a larger pore size than the second membrane and thereby essentially guarantees contact of the reactive substances particle-free raw liquid, so that the reactive substances in the reaction chamber react specifically with the micropollutants. Conversely, however, cases are also possible, in which the fine filtration must take place first, while the reactants provided for the reaction have a coarser structure and consequently only require a second membrane with larger pores.
  • the pore size of the first membrane is preferably selected in such a way that the raw liquid flows into the reaction chamber at a pressure of approximately 2-8 bar.
  • the second membrane has a smaller pore size than the first membrane, for example in the case of an ultrafiltration configuration, a pore size smaller than the diameter of the reactive substances, corresponding to a molecular mass of about 10-30 kDa. This prevents the reactive substances from escaping through the second membrane into the permeate and thus prevents a loss of the reactive substances, and due to the retention of the reactive substances in the reaction space, circulation and targeted regeneration are made possible.
  • the "pore size" of the respective membrane means in particular the nominal pore size, which describes the maximum in the pore size distribution. However, the pore size in particular does not provide a defined statement about the retention capacity of the membrane ) of the membrane, which defines the minimum molecular mass of a regular molecule which is retained by the membrane to 90%.

  • the inflow of the raw liquid through the first membrane and the outflow of the treated liquid through the second membrane on the opposite side to the first membrane can be in the same direction.
  • the reactive substances flow in and out transversely to the inflow and outflow direction of the liquid through the membranes on the other two opposite sides of the rectangular reaction space.
  • a suitable flow control and operating setting can prevent the reactive substances from flowing out into the raw liquid in the opposite direction to the inflow direction. It is particularly advantageous here if the diffusion flow of the reactive substances is smaller than the convection flow of the liquid to be treated.
  • Essentially transverse is understood to mean in particular that a flow direction of the reactive substance is not necessarily aligned exactly at an angle of 90° to an inflow and/or outflow direction of the liquid through the first and/or second membrane, but The flow direction can also have an angle that is greater than or less than 90° to the inflow and/or outflow direction of the liquid.
