られている。[Prior art] and [Problem to be solved by the invention]
In the production of pure water used for pharmaceutical injections, it is necessary to remove a substance generally called a pyrogen (pyrogen), and conventionally this has been done by distillation. Recently, methods using reverse osmosis membranes have also been adopted, and these two methods are legally recognized.
しかしながら、蒸留法においては、熱源が必要なこと、

ンプなどの設備を必要としている。However, the distillation method requires a heat source;
Manufacturing costs are high due to high energy consumption, and the reverse osmosis membrane method requires equipment such as circulation pumps that can generate high water pressure.
パイロジエンの除去法としては、上記2つの方法以外に

膜などの吸着効果による方法などが提案されているが、
こうした吸着法では大部分のパイロジエンが除去される
ものの、完全にそれが阻止される訳ではない。In addition to the above two methods, methods for removing pyrodiene have been proposed, including methods using adsorbents such as activated carbon, and methods using adsorption effects such as membranes made of polyolefin materials.
Although these adsorption methods remove most of the pyrodiene, they do not completely prevent it.

物質が存在するが、特に除去が困難であるとされている
のは、低分子量のパイロジエンである1′エンド1〜キ
シン″と呼ばれる物質である。By the way, there are many substances called pyrodiene, but one substance that is said to be particularly difficult to remove is a substance called 1'endo-xin'' which is a low molecular weight pyrodiene.
エンドトキシンとは、ダラム陰性菌由来のりボボリサッ

造法を提供することにある。An object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing pyrogen-free water that makes it possible to completely remove pyrodiene, including endotoxin, by an inexpensive method.

ることによって達成される。This object of the present invention is achieved by passing pyrodiene-containing water through an adsorbent layer and a precision filtration membrane module, and then passing it through an ultrafiltration membrane module to produce pyrogen-free water.
基本的には、エンドトキシンを始めとするパイロジエン

序、一般にはこの順序で透過させることが行われる。Basically, the removal of endotoxins and other pyrogenes can be carried out using only the ultrafiltration membrane module, but in that case, the flow rate decreases significantly due to clogging, so first use tap water. The pyrodiene-containing water is passed through the adsorbent layer and the precision filtration membrane module in any order, generally in this order.

水透過係数が100aJ/aiT・(kg/ci)・h
r以上の精密口過膜が必要となる。Permeation through a packed bed of adsorbent, typically activated carbon, adsorbs and removes residual chlorine and organic substances (odor components such as musty odor, pyrodiene, etc.) in tap water. In addition, fine particles such as iron rust and bacteria are blocked when passing through the precision membrane module. This precision membrane module is
In order to keep the load on the ultrafiltration membrane module as small as possible, the pore diameter is approximately 0.01-0.05 μm, and the pure water permeability coefficient is 100aJ/aiT・(kg/ci)・h.
A precision membrane with a diameter of r or higher is required.

あるいは更に小分子量側の特性が要求されるものが用い
られる。In the ultra-permeable membrane module, pyrodiene that cannot be completely removed by the adsorbent and the ultra-permeable membrane module is completely blocked. Therefore, as an ultrafiltration membrane module,
Those that exhibit fractionation characteristics equivalent to those shown in the graph of Figure 1 (nominal fractional molecular weight, which is the molecular weight when showing a rejection rate of 90% based on polyethylene glycol, are approximately 10,000), or those that exhibit characteristics on the smaller molecular weight side.

Furthermore, this removal method does not require any cost for the treatment method itself or the treatment equipment, and since it is a sip-through type, it has the advantage that almost no water or energy is wasted. Furthermore, this method, which allows pyrogen-free water to be easily produced using a simple device, also allows for miniaturization of the device, so it can be applied at the raw water supply end, that is, at the point of use.
