[0003] A quartz glass raw material liquid such as tetrachlorosilane is gasified by a vaporizer. This raw material gas is supplied to an oxyhydrogen flame burner, which is a quartz glass synthesizer, while controlling the flow rate by a mass flow controller (flow rate control device). Since the raw gas passage of the thin tube and flow control valve in the gas flow path in the flow control device is narrow and narrow, the gel-like substance generated by the reaction between the raw material gas and moisture and the impurity fine particles mixed in the raw material gas are removed. It is easy to cause clogging due to impurities. If the clogging occurs, it becomes impossible to appropriately control the flow rate of the source gas, and the flow rate of the source gas fluctuates. As a result, the glass particles are not uniformly generated in the oxyhydrogen flame, and the deposition density of the glass particles becomes non-uniform. When further impurities reach the quartz glass synthesis device,
The purity of the glass fine particles is reduced, or bubbles are generated in the glass when the obtained porous glass base material is sintered to be transparent vitrified.

[0004] Clogged components must be replaced frequently. If the source gas comes into contact with the moisture of the outside air at the time of replacement, a gel-like substance or corrosive gas is generated, causing new clogging.Therefore, it is necessary to completely replace the gas flow path with the source gas. It was complicated and the productivity was low.

As shown in FIG. 2, the raw material gas is separated by the separation fluid 12 in the impurity filter 2. Part of the raw material gas passes through the membrane filter 14a of the membrane support 15a and flows to the ventilation holes 16a of the membrane support 15a. Part of the raw material gas passes through the small holes of the projections 18 of the membrane support 15a, passes through the membrane filter 14b of the membrane support 15b, and passes through the ventilation holes 16b of the membrane support 15b.
Flows to When passing through the membrane filters 14a and 14b, the impurities such as gel-like substances and impurity particles 13 contained in the raw material gas are removed by filtration. The flow rate of the raw material gas from which the impurities are removed is controlled by the gas flow rate control device 3, and a predetermined gas flow rate flows to the oxyhydrogen flame burner 4. Glass particles are formed by the flame 5 of the burner 4, and when deposited, a porous glass preform 6 as a raw material of an optical fiber is obtained.
