The present invention relates to a processing device, and particularly to a processing device for photographic processing waste liquid suitable for processing by being disposed in or near an automatic processor.

を用いた工程を組合せて行なわれている。[Prior art] In general, photographic processing of silver halide photographic materials includes development, fixing, washing, etc. in the case of black and white materials, and color development, bleach-fixing (or bleaching, fixing, etc.) in the case of color photographic materials. ), washing with water, stabilization, and other functions using a processing liquid having one or more functions.

されている。In photographic processing in which a large amount of light-sensitive material is processed, the components consumed during processing are replenished, while the components that are concentrated by elution or evaporation into the processing solution (
For example, methods are used to maintain the performance of the processing solution at a constant level by removing bromide ions in the developer and silver complex salts in the fixing solution and keeping the processing solution components constant. Therefore, a replenisher is added to the processing solution, and a portion of the processing solution is discarded to remove thickening components in photographic processing.

。In recent years, systems have been changing to systems in which the amount of replenishment, including washing water, which is a replenishment solution for washing, has been significantly reduced due to pollution and economic reasons, or photographic processing waste liquid is removed from the processing tank of automatic processors. It is led through a waste liquid pipe, diluted with waste liquid from washing water, cooling water from automatic processors, etc., and then disposed of in sewers, etc.

満する等の問題を生している。However, due to stricter pollution regulations in recent years, it is possible to dispose of washing water and cooling water into sewers or rivers, but it is possible to dispose of washing water and cooling water into sewers or rivers, but it is not possible to dispose of washing water and cooling water into sewers or rivers. It has become virtually impossible to dispose of liquids (or bleaching solutions, fixing solutions) and stabilizing solutions. For this reason, each photo processing company pays a collection fee to a specialized waste liquid collection company to collect the waste liquid, or installs pollution treatment equipment. However, the method of outsourcing to a waste liquid treatment company requires a considerable amount of space to store the waste liquid, and is also extremely expensive. Furthermore, pollution treatment equipment has drawbacks such as extremely large initial investment (initial cost) and the need for a fairly large space for maintenance. Therefore, in general, waste liquid is collected by a waste liquid collection company and rendered harmless through secondary and tertiary processing, or the price of waste liquid collection is increasing year by year due to rising collection costs, and collection efficiency is low in minilabs etc.
It is difficult to get people to come and collect the liquid, and this causes problems such as waste liquid filling the store.

特有のイオウ系化合物、例えばチオ硫酸塩や亜硫酸塩の
分解によるものである。[Section B to be solved by the invention] By the way, when photographic processing waste liquid is evaporated in this way, harmful or extremely foul-smelling gases such as sulfite scum, hydrogen sulfide, and ammonia gas are generated. This is due to the decomposition of specific sulfur compounds, such as thiosulfate and sulfite, which are often used in fixers and bleach-fixers contained in photographic processing waste solutions.

、濃縮物をスラッジ状にして廃棄することかできなかっ
た。For this reason, various studies and experiments have been conducted to remove odor components, and it has been found that the photographic processing waste liquid is evaporated and concentrated when heated by the heating means, but the resulting concentrate is not heated by the heating means. The concentrate remains in the vicinity and continues to be heated, and this concentrate decomposes overheating and generates hydrogen sulfide, ammonia gas, etc., and the concentrate cannot be disposed of as a sludge.
また、この濃縮物が蒸発手段の内壁に付着して大きな固

イブ等に詰まって装置が正常に作動しなくなる一原因と
なっている。In addition, this concentrate adheres to the inner wall of the evaporating means and falls off as a large lump, and the concentrate clogs the vibrator of the circulation system, causing the device to malfunction.
この発明は従来の問題点に鑑みてなされたものであり、

ことを目的としている。This invention was made in view of the conventional problems,
It improves evaporation efficiency and prevents thermal decomposition of concentrates, reduces the generation of bad odors, allows concentrates to be disposed of in the form of sludge, and prevents clogging caused by concentrates to ensure smooth operation of equipment. The object of the present invention is to provide a processing device for photographic processing waste liquid that enables the processing of photographic processing waste liquid.
［課題を解決するための手段コ
前記課題を解決するために、この発明は蒸発手段に貯留

縮せしめる写真処理廃液の処理装置において、前記蒸発
手段の内部に、少なくともその内壁の一部に沿って移動
する攪拌体を備えることを特徴としている。[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention heats the photographic processing waste liquid stored in the evaporation means with a heating means to evaporate it (lA
The apparatus for processing photographic processing waste liquid for shrinking is characterized in that the evaporating means includes an agitator that moves along at least a part of its inner wall.
従って、蒸発手段の内部に備えられた攪拌体を、少なく
ともその内壁の一部に沿って移動させて濃縮物を攪拌し
ながら加熱手段で加熱するため、濃縮物の蒸発効率か向
上し、スラッジ状態まて濃縮しても過熱分解を防止てき
、硫化水素、アンモニアガス等の臭気の発生を大幅に抑
制することかできる。Therefore, since the stirring body provided inside the evaporation means is moved along at least a part of the inner wall of the evaporation means and the concentrate is heated by the heating means while being stirred, the evaporation efficiency of the concentrate is improved and the sludge condition is improved. Moreover, even if it is concentrated, overheating decomposition can be prevented, and the generation of odors such as hydrogen sulfide and ammonia gas can be significantly suppressed.
また、蒸発手段の内部を蒸発濃縮時に減圧状態にする減
圧手段を備えると、蒸発温度を低下させる定温加熱を行
なうことができ、濃縮物をスラッジ状にすることか容易
になる。Furthermore, if the evaporation means is equipped with a decompression means for reducing the pressure inside the evaporation means during evaporation and concentration, constant temperature heating can be performed to lower the evaporation temperature, and the concentrate can be easily turned into a sludge.
さらに、蒸発手段の内壁に濃縮物か固着されても、攪拌
体で濃縮物をかき落すことができ、さらに攪拌て細かく
できるから、濃縮物が循環系のパイプ等に目詰まりか生
しることがなく、装置が円滑に作動するようになる。Furthermore, even if the concentrate sticks to the inner wall of the evaporation means, the agitator can scrape off the concentrate and further stir it to make it finer, preventing the concentrate from clogging the pipes of the circulation system. This will ensure smooth operation of the device.

付着を有効に防止できる。In the processing apparatus for photographic processing waste liquid of the present invention, the agitator disposed inside the evaporating means is configured to move from the inner wall surface of the evaporating means.
For example, if the concentrate is moved within a distance of 2 cm or less, preferably Icm or less, particularly preferably 0.5 cm or less, adhesion of the concentrate can be effectively prevented.
また、攪拌体の移動はモータの回転によって行なうよう
にすると、構造が簡単になる。Furthermore, if the stirring body is moved by rotation of a motor, the structure becomes simpler.
