Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a bubble breaking device in a vessel capable of continuously breaking bubbles for a long period by forming a lattice or planar net using hollow yarn capable of injecting a hydrophobic solution from the outside and installing the net above the bubble breaking liquid level in the vessel. CONSTITUTION:A net is formed by stretching hydrophobic hollow yarn 12, preferably at an interval of 3-4mm in the form of a lattice or plane and a hydrophobic solution 15 (preferably silicone grease, etc.) is injected from a grease nipple 14 to provide a bubble breaking device, which is then provided above the liquid level in the vessel to bring bubbles produced by chemical reaction or culturing into contact with the hydrophobic solution and break the bubbles.

The conventional antifoaming method was to put an antifoaming agent into the culture solution, but recently, a culture method described in JP-A No. 64-67184, which is characterized by providing an antifoaming layer in the culture tank, has been developed. A method was devised. In the above publication, there is no mention of long-term connected culture (more than 2 months), and in the case of products that constitute a defoaming layer as in the publication, the foam-breaking effect decreases with long-term culture. Met. Because silicone grease is applied to a SUS lattice-like mesh that forms an anti-foaming layer in the early stage of the culture solution, the silicone grease is consumed as the culture time passes and the foam-breaking ability disappears. This is because it will be put away.

Silicone grease or silicone oil is injected into the hollow fiber membrane using a syringe through an injection port provided outside the tank. As a result of this injection, the injected solution evenly oozes out onto the surface of the hollow fibers M that are formed around the upper part of the liquid surface. Bubbles generated from the liquid in the tank are caused by silicone grease on the surface of the hollow fiber membrane,
Or if it comes into contact with silicone oil, the bubbles will break. If the silicone grease or silicone oil on the surface of the hollow fiber membrane is consumed, the bubble-breaking effect will decrease, so a chemical reaction is taking place in the tank.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIG. 1st
The oak shown in the figure is a standard culture tank 2 used for culturing microorganisms and the like. In the figure, oxygen or air is supplied to the culture solution in the culture tank 2 from the air supply port 8, and the culture solution is stirred and mixed by the stirring x5, and the temperature is controlled by the temperature control jacket 3. When stirring is performed while supplying air in this manner, bubbles are generated above the liquid level 4 due to the viscosity of the culture solution.

Then, when the bubbles rise up to the foam-breaking net 1 provided in the culture tank 2 and touch the Hf & foam nematode 1, the foam-breaking net 1! ! Since the silicone grease or silicone oil injected from injection 07 is uniformly seeping out on the surface, the bubbles break. Therefore, there are no bubbles at all above the foam-broken net 1, and there is no adverse effect due to bubbles during culturing.
