Abstract
A deaeration method for eliminating dissolved gases from a liquid product, which method involves low initial cost and running cost, compact equipment, and simple arrangement to accomplish the deaeration. For the method to eliminate dissolved gases from a liquid product, a deaeration module which is divided by a gas-pervious membrane into a liquid phase side and a vapor phase side is used. A deaeration-use gas composed of one or more kinds of inactive gases is previously dissolved in a liquid product to be deaerated, whereby a deaeration-target liquid is prepared. The deaeration-target liquid is distributed on the liquid phase side, in which distribution process the deaeration-use gas moves to the vapor phase side via the gas-pervious membrane, while the dissolved gases move to the vapor phase side along with the movement of the deaeration-use gas. This movement of the gases is carried out during passage through the deaeration module under ambient pressure.
