ABSTRACT:
A dye solution reservoir system for a dye laser comprises a dye solution reservoir, main fluid circuit means for circulating dye solution between the reservoir and a dye laser, and a by-pass dye replenishment loop between the reservoir and the laser for (1) diverting a portion of the solution from the main circuit, (2) filtering substantially all solute, including the dye and other particles from that portion of the solution, (3) replenishing the solution by adding fresh dye solute, and (4) returning the replenished solution to the main circuit. In a preferred embodiment, the solution is filtered by a first filter for removing the dye solute and a second filter for removing degradation by-products and particulate matter. Reverse osmosis may be advantageously used as a part of this filtrate system. The advantage of such systems is a substantial reduction in the required reservoir capacity and enhanced dye recoverability.
