  • FIG. 22 is a diagram schematically illustrating a water purifier of a ninth embodiment.
  • the water purifier 171 of the ninth embodiment illustrated in FIG. 22 purifies the supplied raw water 181 to produce purified water 182 and supplies the produced purified water 182 .
  • the water purifier 171 includes a housing 191, a nonwoven fabric 192, an activated carbon layer 193, a ceramic particle layer 194 and an antibacterial/antiviral layer 195.
  • a raw water inlet 201 , a purified water outlet 202 and a channel 203 are formed in the housing 191 .
  • the flow path 203 extends from the raw water inlet 201 to the purified water outlet 202 and guides water 211 from the raw water inlet 201 to the purified water outlet 202 .
  • the nonwoven fabric 192 allows water 211 to pass through and removes dust contained in the water 211 to pass through from the water 211 .
  • the activated carbon layer 193 is made of activated carbon.
  • the activated carbon layer 193 allows water 211 to pass through and removes chlorine, organic chlorine compounds, and the like contained in the water 211 to be passed through from the water 211 .
  • the ceramic particle layer 194 is made of ceramic particles.
  • the ceramic particle layer 194 allows the water 211 to pass through and removes various impurities contained in the water 211 to be passed through the water 211 .
  • the antibacterial/antiviral layer 195 comprises a water filter comprising the filter material 1 of any one of the first to sixth embodiments.
  • the antibacterial/antiviral layer 195 allows the water 211 to pass through and inactivates the microorganisms 51 contained in the water 211 that is passed through.
  • General chemical fibers are hydrophobic.
  • the fiber 21 with projections has hydrophilicity because the outermost surface thereof is made of hydrophilic aluminum oxide. This reduces the water pressure required to force the water 211 through the filter material 1 and the antibacterial/antiviral layer 195 .
  • the microorganisms 51 are inactivated by chemicals such as antibacterial agents, the chemicals may be eluted into the water 211 .
  • the microorganisms 51 are inactivated by the filter material 1, the microorganisms 51 are physically inactivated, so that the elution of undesirable components into the water 211 can be suppressed.
  • the carrier that supports the catalyst, and the light source that irradiates the catalyst with light elements such as the light source that make the water purifier larger and more complicated are required.
  • the microorganisms 51 are inactivated by the filter material 1, the need for such elements can be suppressed.
  • the present disclosure is not limited to the above embodiments, but has substantially the same configuration, the same effect, or the same purpose as the configuration shown in the above embodiment. can be replaced with
