METHOD OF CLEANING ULTRAFILTRATION MEMBRANE MODULE AND MANAGEMENT METHOD OF ULTRAPURE WATER MANUFACTURING SYSTEM USING SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18139828 titled 'METHOD OF CLEANING ULTRAFILTRATION MEMBRANE MODULE AND MANAGEMENT METHOD OF ULTRAPURE WATER MANUFACTURING SYSTEM USING SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for cleaning an ultrafiltration membrane module using deionized water. The method involves installing the membrane in the module, supplying deionized water to the module, and flushing the module with the deionized water by adjusting the flow rate.

  • The method involves installing an ultrafiltration membrane in a module.
  • Deionized water is supplied to the module.
  • The module is flushed with the deionized water by adjusting the flow rate.

Potential Applications

  • Water treatment: This method can be used to clean ultrafiltration membrane modules used in water treatment processes, ensuring the efficient removal of contaminants.
  • Industrial processes: The method can be applied in various industrial processes that require the use of ultrafiltration membranes, such as pharmaceutical manufacturing or food processing.

Problems Solved

  • Contaminant buildup: The method helps to remove accumulated contaminants from the ultrafiltration membrane, preventing clogging and maintaining its performance.
  • Efficiency: By using deionized water and adjusting the flow rate, the method optimizes the cleaning process, ensuring effective removal of contaminants without damaging the membrane.

Benefits

  • Improved membrane performance: Regular cleaning using this method helps to maintain the efficiency and longevity of the ultrafiltration membrane, ensuring consistent and reliable filtration.
  • Cost-effective: By using deionized water and adjusting the flow rate, the method offers a cost-effective cleaning solution compared to alternative methods that may require harsh chemicals or extensive maintenance.
  • Environmental-friendly: The use of deionized water reduces the environmental impact of the cleaning process, as it avoids the use of chemicals that may be harmful to the environment.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method of cleaning an ultrafiltration membrane module includes installing an ultrafiltration membrane in an ultrafiltration membrane module, supplying deionized water to the ultrafiltration membrane module, and flushing the ultrafiltration membrane module with the deionized water by increasing decreasing a flow rate of the deionized water supplied to the ultrafiltration membrane module.
