From hollow fibres to membrane plants

  • Published:
Fibre Chemistry Aims and scope

Conclusions

-- The technical basis for the output of hollow fibres for ultrafiltration and separating apparatuses based on them which has been developed in the “Khimvolokno” NPO makes it possible to considerably expand the scale of these priority developments, which must be developed in our view in the following directions:

  • --on the basis of existing hollow fibre types of the VPU series, to develop narrowly specialized composite hollow fibres for various regions, for example, hollow fibres which have reduced sorption of proteins and improved washing ease for processes of concentrating protein solutions, bacteriocidal hollow fibres for processes of preparing food and nonpyrogenic water, and so forth;

  • --development of technology for the preparation of hollow fibres based on polysulfone for the filtration of strongly acid or strongly alkaline solutions, and also of hollow fibre membranes of cellulose for the filtration of organic solvents, fuel, clean-up of wastes containing oil, and so forth;

  • --development of hollow ultrafiltration fibres for medicinal purposes; these are primarily hollow fibres based on polysulfone or hydrocellulose for hemodialysis and polysulfone for hemofiltration.

Realization of the noted directions will make it possible approach significantly to the optimistic predictions which were examined above, and paths for realization have been indicated in the article named.
