Abstract

See full text

Disclosed herein are a method for producing particles whereby dense particles (especially, spherical particles) composed of a calcium phosphate-based compound can be efficiently produced at low cost, particles which are produced by the method, and an adsorption apparatus which is produced by using the particles as an adsorbent. The method for producing particles comprises preparing a liquid containing primary particles composed of a calcium phosphate-based compound and a dispersion medium; feeding the liquid into a heated atmosphere in the form of droplets to obtain aggregates of the primary particles by removing the dispersion medium from each of the droplets and then bring the aggregates into a molten state so that each of the aggregates is formed into a spherical shape; and solidifying the aggregates in the molten state to obtain dense secondary particles. The heated atmosphere preferably contains plasma produced by ionization of an ambient gas. Further, the plasma forms a plasma flame in the heated atmosphere; and the droplets are preferably fed into the circumferential portion of the plasma flame
