Abstract:
1. A hydrophilic treatment device comprising: an electrostatic atomization device for increasing hydrophilicity of collected matter that has low hydrophilicity and is collected on a surface of a processing subject, the electrostatic atomization device including: an atomization electrode which generates electrostatically charged atomized water droplets; a water supply member which supplies water to the atomization electrode; and a voltage application member which applies voltage to the water supplied to the atomization electrode; a housing box which includes a hermetically-sealable interior space for accommodating the processing subject and the electrostatic atomization device, wherein the electrostatically charged atomized water droplets are supplied from the electrostatic atomization device to the processing subject in the hermetically-sealable interior space of the housing box to increase the hydrophilicity of the collected matter; and a cleaning member which supplies cleaning water into the hermetically-sealable interior space of the housing box so that the processing subject of which the hydrophilicity of the collected matter has been increased is immersed in the cleaning water to perform a cleaning process on the collected matter.
