Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

This filtration treatment system is provided with a membrane filtration device as a prefiltration treatment device for removing insoluble components from the water to be treated containing organic substance, a reverse osmosis membrane treatment device for subjecting the prefiltration-treated water to reverse osmosis membrane treatment, and a chemical agent supply pipe for supplying a chemical agent into the membrane filtration device, wherein the chemical agent contains a sulfamic acid compound, and a bromine-based oxidizing agent or the reaction product of a bromine compound with a chlorine-based oxidizing agent, or, contains the reaction product of a sulfamic acid compound with a bromine-based oxidizing agent or with the reaction product of a bromine compound with a chlorine-based oxidizing agent.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A filtration treatment system comprising: a prefiltration treatment filter comprising a filter media for removing insoluble components from a water to be treated that contains organic substance, a reverse osmosis membrane for subjecting a prefiltration-treated water from the prefiltration treatment filter to a reverse osmosis membrane treatment using a polyamide-based polymer membrane, and a chemical agent supply pipe for supplying a chemical agent to water to be treated by the prefiltration treatment filter, wherein the chemical agent comprises: a) a mixture of a bromine-based oxidizing agent and a sulfamic acid compound, b) a mixture of a sulfamic acid compound and a reaction product of a bromine compound with a chlorine-based oxidizing agent, c) a reaction product of a sulfamic acid compound with a bromine-based oxidizing agent, or d) a reaction product of a sulfamic acid compound with a reaction product of a bromine compound with a chlorine-based oxidizing agent; wherein the prefiltration-treated water from the prefiltration treatment filter comprises the chemical agent; wherein the chemical agent is added at a point upstream of the pretreatment filter; and wherein slime generation in the prefiltration treatment filter is inhibited, and slime generation in or on the reverse osmosis membrane is inhibited. 2. The filtration treatment system according to claim 1 , wherein the chemical agent either comprises bromine and a sulfamic acid compound, or comprises a reaction product of bromine and a sulfamic acid compound. 3. The filtration treatment system according to claim 2 , wherein the chemical agent is obtained by a method which includes adding and reacting bromine, under an inert gas atmosphere, with a mixed solution comprising water, an alkali and a sulfamic acid compound. 4. The filtration treatment system according to claim 1 , wherein a pH of the prefiltration-treated water is 5.5 or higher. 5. The filtration treatment system according to claim 1 , wherein a pH of the water to be treated that is supplied to the prefiltration treatment filter is 5.5 or higher. 6. A filtration treatment method comprising: a prefiltration in which insoluble components are removed from a water to be treated that contains organic substance, a reverse osmosis membrane contacting in which a prefiltration-treated water from the prefiltration is subjected to a reverse osmosis membrane contacting using a polyamide-based polymer membrane, and supplying a chemical agent to water to be treated by a prefiltration treatment filter at a point upstream of the pretreatment filter, wherein the chemical agent comprises; a) a mixture of a bromine-based oxidizing agent and a sulfamic acid compound, b) a mixture of a sulfamic acid compound and a reaction product of a bromine compound with a chlorine-based oxidizing agent, c) a reaction product of a sulfamic acid compound with a bromine-based oxidizing agent, or d) a reaction product of a sulfamic acid compound with a reaction product of a bromine compound with a chlorine-based oxidizing agent; wherein the prefiltration-treated water from the prefiltration comprises the chemical agent; and wherein slime generation in the prefiltration is inhibited, and slime generation in the reverse osmosis membrane contacting is inhibited. 7. The filtration treatment method according to claim 6 , wherein the chemical agent either comprises bromine and a sulfamic acid compound, or comprises a reaction product of bromine and a sulfamic acid compound. 8. The filtration treatment method according to claim 7 , wherein the chemical agent is obtained by a method which includes adding and reacting bromine, under an inert gas atmosphere, with a mixed solution comprising water, an alkali and a sulfamic acid compound. 9. The filtration treatment method according to claim 6 , wherein a pH of the prefiltration-treated water is 5.5 or higher. 10. The filtration treatment method according to claim 6 , wherein a pH of the water to be treated that is treated in the prefiltration is 5.5 or higher. 11. The filtration treatment system according to claim 2 , wherein a pH of the prefiltration-treated water is 5.5 or higher. 12. The filtration treatment system according to claim 3 , wherein a pH of the prefiltration-treated water is 5.5 or higher. 13. The filtration treatment system according to claim 2 , wherein a pH of the water to be treated that is supplied to the prefiltration treatment filter is 5.5 or higher. 14. The filtration treatment system according to claim 3 , wherein a pH of the water to be treated that is supplied to the prefiltration treatment filter is 5.5 or higher. 15. The filtration treatment method according to claim 7 , wherein a pH of prefiltration water is 5.5 or higher. 16. The filtration treatment method according to claim 8 , wherein a pH of the prefiltration-treated water is 5.5 or higher.
