Abstract
The membrane module includes tube membranes (,), which are arranged in the membrane module in coiled, curved form (,). As a result, a greater total membrane surface area per unit of volume, simplified assembly, and processing of material mixtures with a high solid proportion are all attained. The modules are arranged to facilitate cross flow filtration over membrane surfaces disposed between a supply conduit manifold and a discharge conduit manifold. Optionally, the coils are aligned in parallel and are in coaxial relation to each other.
