Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the treatment, particularly the cleaning, of installations carrying liquids such as brewery and beverage installations, wherein a catholyte, which corresponds to the starting material and is collected as a treatment solution in a storage container, is generated in situ and continuously forms a salt solution in a reactor by electrodialysis. The reactor of the device for implementing the method has a membrane block (61) which is formed by multiple groups of membranes (62.1, 62.2, 62.3, 62.4). A face plate (63, 64) is disposed at each end of the membrane block, the face plate (63, 64) and the membrane block being clamped together by means of a clamping device (65). Each membrane group has five membranes, of which two are nonpolar membranes, two are unipolar membranes, and one is a bipolar membrane. The membranes are disposed in a particular sequence. A spacer is disposed on each side of a membrane. Each spacer has an outer wall region which is impermeable to the media to be treated, and an inner wall region which is permeable to the media to be treated. Each spacer has multiple throughholes in the outer wall region thereof, which throughholes are distributed in a particular pattern, a portion of which is closed off by the impermeable inner wall region, and a different portion of which is connected at least partly to the permeable inner wall region by means of a connecting channel. Channels are present in the two faceplates and are connected to inflow and drainage pipelines and are aligned with the assigned throughholes of the spacers. An electrode is disposed at each of the two ends of the membrane block.

Abstract: A transport device is provided which uses a linear motor mechanism (24) and a chain (23) in combination for transport and which accomplishes the transport by means of the linear motor mechanism (24) well even if the chain (23) is elongated. The transport mechanism (3) uses the chain (23) for the transport in a first transport section, and uses the linear motor mechanism (24) for the transport in a second transport section. The transport mechanism (3) moves the chain (23) so that a coupling pin of the chain (23) is disengaged from a chain coupling portion of a table (20) when the table (20) is transferred to the second transport section and so that the coupling pin is brought into engagement with the chain coupling portion again when the table (20) is transferred to the first transport section. In the transport mechanism (3), a driving speed at which a pair of rotary members are driven by the chain driving mechanism is corrected in accordance with the elongated condition of the chain (23), based on a count of driving pulses in the chain driving mechanism during the passage of the coupling pin through the second transport section.
