Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a reaction system containing redox enzyme and coenzyme is used for treatment, then treatment effectiveness is improved, but adaptability to changes in treatment target components deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-acquiring voltage-current relationship data for both enzyme-containing and enzyme-free states before actual treatment. This preparatory data collection enables the system to adapt to different treatment targets by comparing against pre-stored reference relationships, resolving the contradiction between maintaining effective treatment conditions and adapting to variable targets.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adjusts treatment voltage and current indicators based on real-time comparison with pre-acquired relationships. By making the treatment parameters adaptive rather than fixed, the system maintains effectiveness across different treatment targets while preserving adaptability to component changes.
2Ease of operation
If fixed voltage and current indicators are used for treatment completion determination, then operational simplicity is improved, but treatment precision for varying targets deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs self-service by automatically determining treatment completion based on current-voltage relationships without requiring manual calibration for each target. The controller autonomously compares real-time measurements with pre-acquired reference data, maintaining precision while preserving operational simplicity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes parameters by using multiple pre-acquired voltage-current relationships corresponding to different treatment states. The system selects and applies appropriate parameter sets based on the specific treatment target, achieving precision without sacrificing ease of operation.

AI summary
The present disclosure provides a method for controlling a treatment apparatus having advantages from the viewpoint of dealing with a change in a component contained in a treatment target while using a reaction system containing a redox enzyme and a coenzyme. The method for controlling a treatment apparatus according to the present disclosure includes acquiring of a first relationship R1 between a first voltage value and a first current value corresponding to the first voltage value by applying a voltage between a first electrode and a second electrode in a state where a treatment liquid does not contain the redox enzyme or the coenzyme. The controlling method includes acquiring of a second relationship R2 between a second voltage value and a second current value corresponding to the second voltage value by applying a voltage between the first electrode and the second electrode in a state where the treatment liquid contains the redox enzyme and the coenzyme. The controlling method determines a voltage Vt for treating the treatment liquid and a target current Ia serving as an indicator of completion of treatment of the treatment liquid in accordance with the first relationship R1 and the second relationship R2.
