Abstract:
1. A liquid separation membrane installation body comprising: a porous base material; and a liquid separation membrane provided on the porous base material, the liquid separation membrane being a sintered porous membrane having a thickness in a range of 0.1 to 1.5 μm, and being formed of a sheet-like dispersant layered inorganic compound that is non-porous and has a thickness of 0.1 nm to 100 nm, a major diameter of 0.01 μm to 5 μm and an aspect ratio (major diameter/thickness) of 3 or more, wherein a plurality of the sheet-like dispersant layered inorganic compounds are deposited as superimposed layers on the porous base material so as to form pores between the superimposed layers that extend substantially parallel to an upper surface of the porous base material such that a liquid flows primarily through the pores formed between the superimposed layers.
