CONSTITUTION:A porous film of 0.1-1mm thickness retaining 10-75wt.% of porous inorganic particles 2 having pores 3 of average pore diameter 1mm or less is used as a filter medium in a three-dimensional network structure 1 composed of polyamide resin, polyolefin resin or fluorine resin. As a result, a filter aid and the amount of washwater can be reduced, and also the amount of wastes can be reduced or burning of wastes can be carried out by using an organic filter aid. Also the water content such as active sludge generated in the fermentation industry or the like can be removed.

[Prior art] Due to the nature of waste bacteria generated in the fermentation industry and surplus sludge from activated sludge methods, filtration technology using a filter aid, which will be described later, is used to dispose of the solidified cake in fields and mountains. The main thing was the method. However, in recent years, there have been environmental problems with the dumping of industrial waste, and the destinations where it can be dumped have become restricted, and it has become desirable to incinerate it at the site where it is generated. Conventionally, waste bacterial cells and surplus sludge have been treated using the methods listed below.

[0004] In all of these methods, a filter cloth is often used as the filter medium, and a filter aid is precoated thereon, or if necessary, the filter aid is first body-fed and a cake layer is formed on the surface of the filter cloth. They have the same characteristics in that they form and perform solid-liquid separation. The term "precoat" used herein refers to coating the surface of a filter medium with a filter aid in advance, thereby increasing filtration efficiency and filtration accuracy and preventing contamination of the filter medium.

[0005] Body feed is a method in which a filter aid is added to the stock solution and used for filtration, thereby reducing the bulk density of the cake layer, promoting filtration, and maintaining filtration stability. Diatomaceous earth, perlite, cellulose powder, etc. are generally used as filter aids.

However, the above-mentioned prior art has the following problems. ■ It is necessary to form a precoat layer on the filter medium.

[0007] In order to increase filtration efficiency, it is necessary to use the hardness of the filter aid to keep the bulk density small, and there is a natural tendency to use inorganic filter aids with high hardness, such as diatomaceous earth. strong. For this reason, low-cost organic filter aids such as cellulose powder tend to be avoided even though they can be incinerated due to their low hardness. ■
In addition, for example, for bacterial cell metabolites, it is necessary to wash the cake layer from the point of view of product recovery, etc., but in the conventional method, the pre-coat layer was also required to be washed, so the amount of washing water was relatively large, and the amount of actual filtrate was is 120-150% compared to the amount of stock solution.

The porous membrane used in the present invention has a so-called three-dimensional network structure having the cross-sectional structure shown in FIG. By applying pressure or vacuum suction to this porous membrane, water permeates through the porous inorganic particle portion within the membrane as a flow path, and a cake layer is formed on the membrane surface. When forming this cake layer, if a filter medium such as a conventional filter cloth is used, the pores that contribute to filtration are large, so the filter medium becomes clogged, and precoating with a filter aid is required. The average particle size of the filter aid at this time is 1 to 10
0 μm is common.

[0012] Here, the three-dimensional network structure refers to a structure in which through holes are intricately arranged in three-dimensional directions, as shown in FIG. 2 of Publication of Utility Model Publication No. 63-8724, for example. The feature of the present invention is that although it is a porous membrane, the portion with pores is limited to the inorganic particle portion, and since the pores of the inorganic particles are very fine, they are extremely difficult to clog. Also,
In order to increase the filtration efficiency, it is possible to body-feed a small amount of filter aid as usual, and in this case, if an organic filter aid such as cellulose powder is used, a cake that can be incinerated is produced.

Another characteristic of the membrane structure is that the porous inorganic particles are retained within the three-dimensional network structure without falling off, and a portion of them is exposed on the membrane surface to ensure a drainage flow path. The physical strength of the membrane depends on the inherent strength of polyamide resin, polyolefin resin, or fluorine resin, and since it has sufficient strength, it can be used in cases where cake scraping is required, such as with Oliver filters. But it can be handled well.
