A winding system for winding up concatenated hollow fibers onto a winding core includes a winding core of a device for the mass transfer and/or heat exchange between two media and which winding core is to be inserted together with the hollow fibers wound thereon, into the housing of the device and to remain therein, and at least one coupling element, preferably two coupling elements, wherein the at least one coupling element has two axially opposing connecting regions and is temporarily connectable, by means of the first connecting region, to the winding core for conjoint rotation therewith, and is temporarily connectable, by means of the second connecting region, with a drive for conjoint rotation therewith, the drive being provided for the rotation of the winding core about a winding axis.

An ion-exchange apparatus has a raw-water tank 1, a treatment tank 2, an ion exchanger 3 and a voltage applying device E. The raw-water tank 1 contains a to be treated liquid that has impurity ions. The treatment tank 2 contains a treatment material with exchange ions exchangeable with the impurity ions. The ion exchanger 3 enables the passage of the impurity ions from the raw-water tank 1 to the treatment tank 2 and the passage of the exchange ions from the treatment tank 2 to the raw-water tank 1. The voltage-applying device E applies a voltage to the ion exchanger 3.

The present disclosure relates to devices and processes for the production of hollow fiber membrane bundles. The bundles are used for the manufacture of filtration and/or diffusion devices, e.g., capillary dialyzers.

Provided is a hollow fiber membrane module that exhibits excellent durability even when a chemical such as a radical polymerizable compound is used for a separation or mixing process. Also provided is a method for producing the hollow fiber membrane module in a highly productive manner. More specifically, there is provided a hollow fiber membrane module at least including a tubular body, a cap, a hollow fiber membrane, and an end seal portion, wherein at least a liquid contacting portion of the end seal portion is sealed with a cured product of a curable resin composition including an epoxy resin, and wherein the epoxy resin includes a polyglycidyl ether of a polycondensate of an aromatic compound containing a phenolic hydroxyl group and an aromatic compound containing a formyl group and a phenolic hydroxyl group, and there is provided a method for producing the module.

A degasification system includes a degasification unit in which a plurality of degasification modules degasifying a liquid are connected, wherein the degasification unit has a connection supply pipe which connects the liquid supply paths of the plurality of degasification modules in series and in which openings through which the liquid passes are formed at positions corresponding to the plurality of degasification modules such that the liquid is supplied to the hollow fiber membrane bundles of the plurality of degasification modules in parallel, and wherein the degasification unit is configured such that a pressure loss of the liquid from a supply port of the connection supply pipe through which the liquid is supplied to the discharge ports of a downstream side degasification module is larger than a pressure loss of the liquid from the supply port to the discharge ports of an upstream side degasification module.

A hollow fibre membrane having a coiled, a hemihelix, a helical or an undulated native form, in which the membrane can be stretched by up to 4-times its original length with no plastic deformation, and wherein the native form of the membrane is produced by the asymmetric flow of liquid polymer through an opening of a die or nozzle.
