Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chemical equipment technology, specifically to a water vapor collection device for connecting to the breather port of a reaction tank. Background Art

[0002] In biopharmaceutical cleanrooms, reaction tanks with a certain volume and low pressure resistance require precise control of the cleaning fluid flow rate and pressure during Clean In-Place (CIP) procedures. If the CIP process includes a step involving high-temperature alkaline solutions and / or water for injection, the high-temperature cleaning fluid will carry and release a large amount of hot water vapor during cleaning, causing a rapid increase in pressure within the reaction tank. Because the reaction tank is not pressure-resistant, the vent must remain open, allowing a large amount of hot air to be expelled, carrying a small amount of hot alkali and / or water for injection. The expelled hot air and high-temperature cleaning fluid affect the temperature and humidity within the clean area, corroding the cleanroom floor and wall panels. Utility Model Content
