A solid-liquid separator separates a solid-liquid mixture into solids and liquids respectively independently by using a substance that is a gas at ambient temperature and becomes a liquid at a saturated vapor pressure or higher. The solid-liquid separator includes a compressor configured to compress the substance, a cooler configured to liquefy the substance, an accumulator configured to store the liquefied substance, a valve configured to regulate the flow of the liquefied substance, a sprayer configured to spray liquefied gas as droplets, a processing tank configured to contain the mixture and including the sprayer at an upper portion, a filter configured to prevent the solid from flowing out of the processing tank, and a vaporizer configured to vaporize the substance from a liquid mixture flowed out from the processing tank. An upper space of the inside of the processing tank is filled with the gaseous substance. |
