Abstract

To provide a cleaning apparatus and a cleaning method that require a smaller conduit population and less space and as a result cost less and provide an improved operability. A cleaning apparatus (30) contains a gastight container (32) for holding solvent; the interior of this container is partitioned in a gastight manner by a partition wall (34) into a feed compartment (36) that holds fresh solvent and a recovery compartment (38) that holds spent solvent. The partition wall (34) is slideably supported by a sliding support member (42) in such a manner that the pressure within the feed compartment (36) becomes equalized with the pressure within the recovery compartment (38). The feed compartment (36) is connected to a manifold (12) by a feed conduit (44) and the recovery compartment (38) is connected to the manifold (12) by a recovery conduit (46). A gas introduction conduit (52) is connected to the feed conduit (44) in order to introduce pressurization gas from a pressurized gas source (54). An exhaust conduit (62) is connected to the recovery conduit (46) in order to conduct vacuum exhaust using a vacuum exhaust source (64).
