Membrane pocket module having rotationally secured deflection discs

Abstract

The invention relates to membrane modules, in particular membrane pocket modules, which comprise membrane pocket stacks which are disposed in a housing having at least one feed inlet, at least one retentate outlet, and at least one permeate outlet. The invention also relates to the use of the membrane module according to the invention for separating mixtures of liquids and/or gases. The membrane of the previously known type, also referred to as a GS module, comprises a housing which for forming a container interior space by means of finisher discs at two end sides is closed in a pressure-tight manner. The finisher discs comprise at least one feed inlet, at least one retentate outlet, and one permeate outlet, wherein at least one membrane pocket stack which has a plurality of membrane pockets which are lined up beside one another and are mutually separated by seals and which are push-fitted onto a permeate tube is disposed in the container interior space. The permeate tube protrudes beyond the at least one permeate outlet of the finisher discs. The membrane module according to the invention is characterized in that the permeate tube and the permeate outlet of the finisher discs are aligned in an alternating manner by way of a key-and-groove connection.
