場合下記の問題がある。As the number of establishments acquiring environmental ISO increases, wastewater treatment is an important issue, and among them, oil-water separation of wastewater is the most common issue. In the oil-water mixture, the drain of the oil-supplying compressor is generally emulsified, so it cannot be completely separated only by the specific gravity difference of oil and water. A method of adsorbing oil to the element is a general method in the prior art. This method has the following problems.

Boils and evaporates at 00 ° C, but the oil does not boil. When the pressure is reduced, the boiling point of water drops to 100 ° C. or lower, but the boiling point of oil is as high as about 300 ° C., and the water boils first and evaporates. By utilizing the difference in physical properties, the drain in the emulsion state is separated into oil and moisture, and the moisture is reduced to the atmosphere in a vapor state.

Therefore, no filter element is required, and maintenance-free operation that does not require periodic maintenance can be achieved. Further, the amount of boiling evaporation of water is determined by the degree of vacuum, and it is not necessary to linearly increase the element size with respect to the processing amount unlike the filter element method, and the apparatus can be downsized.
