Equipment is realized which is capable of increasing the frequency of use of a deposition mask of an organic EL element and the recycle of an adhesive agent by efficiently cleaning the deposition mask with little damage and efficiently collecting the adhesive agent. A pulse laser is irradiated to a deposition mask to separate the deposition agent from the deposition mask. The separated deposition agent is sucked by a suction nozzle, and the deposition agent is separated from air by a cyclone and deposited on a bottom of the cyclone. Thereafter, a first valve is opened to collect the deposition agent in a deposition agent collection section. Then a second valve is opened to move the deposition agent to a deposition agent refining section to be refined. A third valve is opened to store the refined deposition agent in a deposition agent storage section. The deposition mask may be cleaned without being damaged to collect the deposition agent with high efficiency.
