METHOD FOR CLEANING SOLID-GAS SEPARATION FILTER AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING TONER PARTICLE USING SAME

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide the method for cleaning the solid-gas separation filter for removing the particles sticking to a drying apparatus having a filter for solid-gas separation, and to provide a method for manufacturing the toner particles using the same. SOLUTION: The method for cleaning the solid-gas separation filter used for the drying apparatus for drying the wet process toner particles generated in a liquid medium is characterized in that the solid catching surface of the solid-gas separation filter is cleaned by supplying water flow into the drying apparatus in the as-installed state of the solid-gas separation filter into the drying apparatus. The drying apparatus is characterized by having a mechanism for supplying the water flow or a construction for inserting the mechanism from the outside. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
