Apparatus for separating adsorbate and method of continuously separating adsorbate

Abstract

It is intended to provide to provide an apparatus for separating an adsorbate, that permits continuous separation of the adsorbate from a processing material containing solid particles, sticky substances and water-soluble proteins alone or in combination without pretreatment, and a method of continuously separating the adsorbate. In the present invention, the processing is carried out, while a loop adsorbent is circulated. Specifically, an adsorbate is adsorbed, not by supply of the processing solution through the adsorbent, but by contact thereof with the adsorbent. In addition, the adsorbent after desorption of the adsorbate is cleaned. As a result, provided are an apparatus for separating an adsorbate, that permits continuous processing and separation of the adsorbate even from a processing material containing solid particles, sticky substances and water-soluble proteins alone or in combination without pretreatment and a method of continuously separating the adsorbate.
