Description

本発明は、酸化力の強い液体や熱水の濾過のために使用される精密濾過用カートリッジフィルターに関するものである。   The present invention relates to a cartridge filter for microfiltration used for filtering liquids and hot water having strong oxidizing power.

従来から、ビール、ワイン、清酒やジュースなどの飲料食品については、好ましくない物質を分離するために、濾過工程が設けられていることが多く、例えば、貯蔵タンクからビールを取り出す際に、酵母や懸濁物質、雑菌などを濾過することにより、良好な品質と清澄さのビールを得ている。通常、濾過工程の際には、熱水(温度:約80℃以上)、熱次亜塩素酸ナトリウム水(温度:約80℃以上)、または熱アルカリ水(温度:約80℃以上)による殺菌が行なわれている。   Conventionally, for beverage foods such as beer, wine, sake and juice, a filtration process is often provided in order to separate undesirable substances. For example, when taking out beer from a storage tank, By filtering suspended substances and various germs, beer of good quality and clarity is obtained. Usually, in the filtration step, sterilization with hot water (temperature: about 80 ° C. or higher), hot sodium hypochlorite water (temperature: about 80 ° C. or higher), or hot alkaline water (temperature: about 80 ° C. or higher). Has been done.

このような濾過工程においては、逆浸透膜、限外濾過膜、又は精密濾過膜など様々な分離膜が用いられている。このような分離膜の両面には、織布や不織布等からなるシート状の支持体が設けられている。例えば、特許文献1には、ポリエステル不織布を支持体としたポリスルホン限外濾過膜が開示されており、特許文献2には、ポリプロピレン不織布を支持体としたポリスルホン限外濾過膜が開示されている。   In such a filtration step, various separation membranes such as a reverse osmosis membrane, an ultrafiltration membrane, or a microfiltration membrane are used. Sheet-like supports made of woven fabric or nonwoven fabric are provided on both surfaces of such a separation membrane. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a polysulfone ultrafiltration membrane using a polyester nonwoven fabric as a support, and Patent Document 2 discloses a polysulfone ultrafiltration membrane using a polypropylene nonwoven fabric as a support.

しかしながら、特許文献1に記載されたものは、支持体であるポリエステル不織布がアルカリ溶液により加水分解されて損傷を受けるので、食品用の熱アルカリ殺菌には使用できない。また、特許文献2に記載されたものは、支持体であるポリプロピレン不織布が、熱次亜塩素酸ナトリウム水によって酸化され、劣化損傷し、その結果、濾過性能を維持するために精密濾過膜の寿命前に、頻繁にカートリッジフィルターを交換する必要が生じので、ビール等の生産性を高めることができない要因の一つとなっている。   However, since the polyester nonwoven fabric which is a support is hydrolyzed and damaged by an alkaline solution, the one described in Patent Document 1 cannot be used for hot alkali sterilization for food. In addition, what is described in Patent Document 2 is that the polypropylene nonwoven fabric as a support is oxidized and deteriorated by hot sodium hypochlorite water, and as a result, the life of the microfiltration membrane is maintained in order to maintain the filtration performance. Since it becomes necessary to frequently replace the cartridge filter before, it is one of the factors that cannot increase the productivity of beer and the like.

The sheet-like support is composed of a net-like biaxially stretched polypropylene formed by biaxial stretching, and the thickness of the support disposed on the outer side of the pair of sheet-like supports is on the inner side. The thickness of the support disposed on the outer side is 250 to 330 μm, the porosity is 30% or more, and the tensile strength is 2000 gf / thickness. It is characterized by being 15 mm or more.

また、本発明は、ポリスルホン又はポリエーテルスルホンからなる精密濾過膜の両面に一対のシート状の支持体が重ねられて配置されている精密濾過用カートリッジフィルターにおいて、前記一対のシート状の支持体は、二軸延伸によって形成されたネット状の二軸延伸ポリプロピレンから構成されており、前記一対のシート状の支持体のうち、外側に配置された支持体の引張強度は、内側に配置された支持体と同じ、又はそれよりも強く、前記外側に配置された支持体の厚みは、250〜330μmであり、開孔率は、30%以上であり、引張強度は、2000gf/15mm以上であることを特徴とする。   The present invention also relates to a cartridge filter for microfiltration in which a pair of sheet-like supports are arranged on both surfaces of a microfiltration membrane made of polysulfone or polyethersulfone, and the pair of sheet-like supports are The biaxially stretched net-shaped biaxially stretched polypropylene is used, and, among the pair of sheet-like supports, the tensile strength of the support disposed on the outside is the support disposed on the inside.

It is characterized by.

本発明は、以上のような構成により、温度が80℃以上の酸化力の強い液体、又は熱水によって濾過を行なっても、酸化又は劣化しにくく、濾過性能を長期間に亘って維持できる。   According to the present invention, even when filtration is performed with a liquid having a strong oxidizing power of 80 ° C. or higher or hot water, the present invention can hardly be oxidized or deteriorated and can maintain the filtration performance for a long period of time.

Can be provided.

次に、本発明に係る精密濾過用カートリッジフィルターの実施の態様を図面に基づいて説明する。図1は、本実施の形態に係る精密濾過用カートリッジフィルターの一部切開斜視図である。本実施の形態に係る精密濾過用カートリッジフィルター1は、周面に多数の通液孔を有する管状コア2と、重ねられた一対の精密濾過膜4a、4bとその両側に配された一対の支持体3、5から構成されるとともに、管状コア2の周面に設けられ、精密濾過膜4a、4bと一対の支持体3、5が重ね合わされた状態でプリーツ加工された濾材8と、濾材8の周りを覆うように設けられた筒状のプロテクター6と、これら管状コア2、濾材8及びプロテクター6の軸方向両端に設けられ、精密濾過膜4との熱融着により精密濾過膜4を液密にシールするエンドキャップ7と、を備えている。   Next, an embodiment of a cartridge filter for microfiltration according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a partially cut perspective view of a cartridge filter for microfiltration according to the present embodiment. The cartridge filter 1 for microfiltration according to the present embodiment includes a tubular core 2 having a large number of liquid passage holes on the peripheral surface, a pair of microfiltration membranes 4a and 4b that are overlaid, and a pair of supports that are disposed on both sides thereof. The filter medium 8 is composed of the bodies 3 and 5 and is provided on the peripheral surface of the tubular core 2 and pleated in a state where the microfiltration membranes 4a and 4b and the pair of supports 3 and 5 are overlapped, and the filter medium 8 The cylindrical filter 6 provided so as to cover the periphery of the tube, and the tubular core 2, the filter medium 8, and the protector 6 are provided at both ends in the axial direction, and the microfiltration membrane 4 is removed by thermal fusion with the microfiltration membrane 4. And an end cap 7 for hermetically sealing.

本実施の形態に係る精密濾過用カートリッジフィルターにおいて、精密濾過膜4a、4bは、耐アルカリ性を有するとともに、微粒子の除去性能及び透水性能に優れ、耐熱性が良好なポリマーであるポリスルホン又はポリエーテルスルホンから構成されていることが好ましい。これら精密濾過膜4a、4bの孔径は、ビールなどの食品用に使用される孔径、例えば0.1〜1.2μmであることが好ましい。精密濾過膜4a、4bの厚みは、プリーツ加工や有効濾過面積との関係上、65〜180μmであることが好ましい。これら一対の精密濾過膜4a、4bは、互いに異なる孔径の異方性構造の膜を重ねて用いることが好ましく、このように異なる孔径の異方性構造の膜を用いることにより、濾過性能を向上させることができる。また、プリーツ加工時に精密濾過膜が支持体と接触して膜表面が傷つくことがあるが、精密濾過膜4a、4bを2枚重ねることにより、1枚の精密濾過膜の場合に比べて、精密濾過膜の性能を維持することができる。精密濾過膜4a、4bは、既知の方法により製造することができ、例えば、ポリエーテルスルホンからなる精密濾過膜は、特開2005−251152号公報や特開2003−144128号公報等に開示されているように、ポリエーテルスルホンが溶媒に溶解された製膜溶液から、相分離法によって作ることができる。   In the microfiltration cartridge filter according to the present embodiment, the microfiltration membranes 4a and 4b are polysulfone or polyethersulfone, which is a polymer having alkali resistance, excellent particulate removal performance and water permeability, and good heat resistance. It is preferable that it is comprised from these. The microfiltration membranes 4a and 4b preferably have a pore size used for food such as beer, for example, 0.1 to 1.2 μm. The thickness of the microfiltration membranes 4a and 4b is preferably 65 to 180 μm in view of pleating and effective filtration area. The pair of microfiltration membranes 4a and 4b are preferably used by stacking layers having anisotropic structures with different pore diameters, and thus using these membranes with anisotropic structures having different pore diameters improves filtration performance. Can be made. In addition, the microfiltration membrane may come into contact with the support during the pleating process, and the membrane surface may be damaged. However, by superposing the two microfiltration membranes 4a and 4b, it is more precise than the case of a single microfiltration membrane. The performance of the filtration membrane can be maintained. The microfiltration membranes 4a and 4b can be manufactured by a known method. For example, microfiltration membranes made of polyethersulfone are disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Nos. 2005-251152 and 2003-144128. As can be seen, it can be prepared by a phase separation method from a membrane-forming solution in which polyethersulfone is dissolved in a solvent.

本実施の形態に係る精密濾過用カートリッジフィルターにおいて、支持体3、5は、二軸延伸によって、ネット状(網目状)に作製された二軸延伸ポリプロピレンから構成されている。これら支持体3、5のうち、外側に配置された一次側支持体3の厚み及び引張強度は、内側に配置された二次側支持体5と同じ、又はそれよりも厚く、かつ強く形成されている。一次側支持体3の厚みは、250〜330μmであり、開孔率は、30%以上であり、引張強度は、2000gf/15mm以上であることが好ましい。二次側支持体5の厚みは、100〜330μmであり、開孔率は、30%以上であり、引張強度は、1000gf/15mm以上であることが好ましい。厚みが100μmより薄いとプリーツする時の作業性が悪く、厚みが330μmより厚いとカ−トリッジフィルターの有効濾過面積の低下をもたらす。支持体の引張強度は、プリーツ加工や、酸化力の強い液体、又は熱水の濾過のための使用に耐えるためには、1000gf/15mm以上であることが好ましく、2000gf/15mm以上であることがより好ましい。また、支持体の開孔率が、30%より少なくなると流路抵抗が大きくなり、カ−トリッジフィルターとして処理流量が少なくなってしまう。これら支持体3、5の厚み、開孔率及び引張強度は、二軸延伸によって作製する際の延伸度合を調整することによって、調整することができる。   In the microfiltration cartridge filter according to the present embodiment, the supports 3 and 5 are made of biaxially stretched polypropylene produced in a net shape (mesh shape) by biaxial stretching. Of these supports 3 and 5, the thickness and tensile strength of the primary support 3 arranged on the outside are the same as or thicker than that of the secondary support 5 arranged on the inside. ing. It is preferable that the primary support 3 has a thickness of 250 to 330 μm, a porosity of 30% or more, and a tensile strength of 2000 gf / 15 mm or more. It is preferable that the secondary support 5 has a thickness of 100 to 330 μm, an open area ratio of 30% or more, and a tensile strength of 1000 gf / 15 mm or more. When the thickness is less than 100 μm, workability when pleating is poor, and when the thickness is more than 330 μm, the effective filtration area of the cartridge filter is reduced. The tensile strength of the support is preferably 1000 gf / 15 mm or more, and preferably 2000 gf / 15 mm or more in order to withstand use for pleating, filtration of strong oxidizing power, or hot water. More preferred. Further, if the hole area ratio of the support is less than 30%, the flow resistance increases, and the treatment flow rate as a cartridge filter decreases. The thicknesses, open area ratios, and tensile strengths of these supports 3 and 5 can be adjusted by adjusting the degree of stretching when they are produced by biaxial stretching.

熱次亜塩素酸ナトリウム水耐性の評価Evaluation of thermal sodium hypochlorite water resistance

実施例1及び2、並びに比較例1乃至6に係る精密濾過用カートリッジフィルターについて、熱次亜塩素酸ナトリウム水に対する耐性評価を次のように行なった。先ず、実施例1及び2、並びに比較例1乃至6に係る精密濾過用カートリッジフィルターを用いて、温度80℃、遊離残留塩素濃度1mg/Lの次亜塩素酸ナトリウム水溶液の連続濾過を行い、一定時間毎に、カートリッジフィルターに組み込まれている各濾過材のSEM(電子顕微鏡)による表面状態の観察、及びJIS P8113に記載の方法により、ポリプロピレン製二軸延伸樹脂ネットの縦方向(MD)を試験片の長手方向とし、幅15mm当りの引張強度を測定し、濾過前後の引張強度から数1により強度保持率を算出した。   With respect to the cartridge filters for microfiltration according to Examples 1 and 2 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6, evaluation of resistance to hot sodium hypochlorite water was performed as follows. First, using the microfiltration cartridge filters according to Examples 1 and 2 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6, continuous filtration of an aqueous sodium hypochlorite solution at a temperature of 80 ° C. and a free residual chlorine concentration of 1 mg / L was performed. Test the longitudinal direction (MD) of the biaxially stretched resin net made of polypropylene by observing the surface condition of each filter medium incorporated in the cartridge filter by SEM (electron microscope) and the method described in JIS P8113 every hour. The tensile strength per 15 mm width was measured in the longitudinal direction of the piece, and the strength retention was calculated from Equation 1 from the tensile strength before and after filtration.

この表1乃至8の結果から明らかなように、実施例1及び2に係る精密濾過用カートリッジフィルターの一次側支持体及び二次側支持体は、比較例1乃至6に比べて、高温の酸化力の強い液体に対し酸化劣化が非常に少なく、耐酸化性に優れていることが分かる。また、ポリエーテルスルホン膜についても、高温の酸化力の強い液体に対し酸化劣化が非常に少なく、本発明の精密濾過用カートリッジフィルターは、酸化力の強い液体又は熱水によっても酸化又は劣化しにくく、濾過性能を長期間にわたって維持できることが分かる。   As is apparent from the results of Tables 1 to 8, the primary support and the secondary support of the microfiltration cartridge filter according to Examples 1 and 2 were oxidized at a higher temperature than those of Comparative Examples 1 to 6. It can be seen that there is very little oxidation degradation with respect to a strong liquid, and it has excellent oxidation resistance. In addition, the polyethersulfone membrane is very little oxidized and deteriorated with respect to a liquid having high oxidizing power at high temperature, and the cartridge filter for microfiltration of the present invention is hardly oxidized or deteriorated even by a liquid having strong oxidizing power or hot water. It can be seen that the filtration performance can be maintained over a long period of time.
