DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention comprises a housing in which a large number of hollow fibers are bundled together, and which is a bundle of hollow fibers. This invention relates to an improved method of fluid separation that allows for selective mass transfer through the walls of hollow fibers, and is particularly useful for blood purification by dialysis.

In hemodialysis, with the advent of hollow fiber type membranes, transparent folding has been made smaller and its performance has improved, but it is still not sufficient. For example, when hollow fibers are bundled parallel to each other in a cylindrical tube, as is done in a normal hemodialyzer, the membranes in the center and the membranes in the outer edge behave differently, and especially in the center, the dialysate is not refluxed due to the resistance of the hollow fiber bundle, resulting in a significant drop in efficiency. Furthermore, since the membrane resistance on the dialysate side is large, the dialysis efficiency decreases.

The dialysate is introduced into the housing through (3) and discharged through (4) (the reverse is also possible). Low molecular weight solutes (urea, creatinine, low molecular weight ions, etc.) in a liquid such as blood inside the hollow fibers are transferred into the dialysate through the hollow fiber membrane, and the liquid such as blood is purified.

Here, in the method of the present invention, a compressive force is repeatedly applied intermittently to a portion of the housing made of a soft or elastic polymeric material that corresponds to the lateral direction of the hollow fiber bundle. This results in
Since the dialysate in the housing is disturbed and the hollow fiber bundle is also agitated, the difference in dialysis efficiency between the center portion and the outer edge portion of the hollow fiber bundle is eliminated, and the so-called channeling phenomenon can also be prevented.
