Abstract
The invention concerns an improved hollow fibre apparatus for the fractionation of fluid, comprising; a mandrel, sealing elements located at the ends of the mandrel and by which the hollow fibres are held, the fibres extending from one sealing element to the other, at least one of these sealing elements being traversed by the hollow fibres so that open ends of the fibres are exposed at an outer side of such sealing element, a casing, which is arranged at least around the hollow fibres and the sealing elements and defining a chamber between the inner wall of the casing, the opposing inner sides of the sealing elements and the mandrel, first inlet and/or outlet means for introducing and/or discharging of fluid through the inside of the hollow fibres, and second inlet and outlet means for introducing and discharging of fluid into the chamber outside the fibres, said second inlet and outlet means opening into and from the chamber at the periphery of the mandrel and adjacent the inner sides of each sealing element.
