PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an endotoxin decomposition device which can maintain high endotoxin decomposition performance for a long period of time, a purified water production system equipped with the decomposition device, a system of producing purified water for artificial dialysis, and a method of decomposing endotoxin. SOLUTION: The purified water production system includes a prefilter for removing at least suspended solids from water to be treated, a residual chlorine removal device for removing residual chlorine from the water to be treated, and a water softener for removing hardness components from the water to be treated, the endotoxin decomposition device D, and a reverse osmosis membrane device for removing at least fine particles from the water to be treated. The endotoxin decomposition device D is provided with a fluid tank 10 for making the water to be treated flow in one direction, a flat nonwoven fabric comprising photocatalytic fibers containing titanium oxide in their surfaces, and an ultraviolet irradiation means 30 having a shape extending in the longitudinal direction and capable of irradiating the material with ultraviolet rays having peak wavelengths of 185 nm and 254 nm. The surface of the flat nonwoven fabric is parallel to the longitudinal direction of the ultraviolet irradiation means 30. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
