A filter element and a filter module comprising the same

摘要

A filter element comprising porous hollow fiber fil­ter membranes arranged in a lengthwise direction and fusion-bonded together at one or both of their respective end portions to form a unified terminal block which has through-holes communicating with the hollows of the remai­ning unbonded portions of the membranes and having diame­ters substantially the same as the inner diameters of the membranes. The filter element not only is excellent in resistance to heat and chemicals, but also can realize an efficient filtration.
