通液工程Iの時間を15秒に変えた以外は、実施例1と同様にろ過装置を運転した。第二サイクル目のろ過運転の開始時から、p1での液体流量が目標流量範囲Aに初めて入るまでの時間は20秒であり、早期に液体流量を安定化させることができた。また、液体流量の推移については、図3(a)に示すような推移であり、目標液体流量から大幅に高くなることはなかった。
通液工程Iの時間を20秒に変えた以外は、実施例1と同様にろ過装置を運転した。第二サイクル目のろ過運転の開始時から、p1での液体流量が目標流量範囲Aに初めて入るまでの時間は25秒であり、液体流量を安定化させることができた。また、液体流量の推移については、図3(a)に示すような推移であり、目標液体流量から大幅に高くなることはなかった。
第二サイクル目のろ過運転において、通液工程Iを実施せず、ろ過運転の開始時からPID制御により被ろ過液を供給した以外は、実施例1と同様にろ過装置を運転した。第二サイクル目のろ過運転の開始時から、p1での液体流量が目標流量範囲Aに初めて入るまでの時間は60秒であり、早期に液体流量を安定化させることができなかった。また、液体流量の推移については、図3(c)に示すような推移であり、第二サイクル目のろ過開始時のろ過流量は目標液体流量から大幅に高くなる場合もあった。
第一サイクル目のろ過運転において、ろ過運転の開始後545秒が経過した時のコントロールバルブV1のバルブ開度を記録し、第二サイクル目のろ過運転において、通液工程Iの時間を10秒に変えた以外は、実施例1と同様にろ過装置を運転した。第一サイクル目のろ過運転において、p1での液体流量(ろ過流束)が、目標流量範囲Aである2.2m3/m2/日±10%の範囲に入ったのは、実施例1と同じくろ過運転の開始から60秒後であったが、その時点と比較して、ろ過運転の開始後545秒が経過した時は分離膜の閉塞が相当程度に進行しており、コントロールバルブV1のバルブ開度が大きくなっていた。その結果、第二サイクル目のろ過運転開始時のコントロールバルブV1のバルブ開度が過大となったため、ろ過運転の開始時から、p1での液体流量の推移が、図3(b)に示すような推移となり、目標流量範囲Aを大幅に超えてしまい、その後再び目標流量範囲Aに入るまでの時間は55秒となり、早期に液体流量を安定化させることができなかった。
