METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TREATMENT OF LIQUID

摘要

The invention relates to a method for treatment of liquid, that is meant particularly for filtering of pressurized liquid, such as water led from a water distribution system, by means of an apparatus, which has an essentially closed frame (1), in connection with which there has been arranged at least filtering means (2) for purifying of liquid and flow means (3), such as feedflow and/or exhaust flow arrangements (3a, 3b) for leading of liquid. The filtering means (2) are made of thin filtering film (2a), advantageously made of plastic based material, such as PTM (Particle Track Membrane), TeM (Tracketch Membrane) or like, the thickness of which is preferably 7-25 .mu.m and the size of pores of which is 0,05-10 .mu.m. The filtering film (2a) belonging to filtering means (2) are being purified essentially self-powered, such as by means of purification means (5) exploiting the pressure (p), the movement (v1) and/or like of the liquid to be treated and/or the liquid that has been treated. The invention relates to an apparatus operating according to the method as well.
