ABSTRACT:
A hollow fiber membrane module adapted to be immersed in water to provide filtered water has hollow fibers bundled in a U shape and a securing part that secures the free end portion of the hollow fiber bundle such that the free end portion communicates with a water collecting part provided adjacent to the securing part. A support member is provided inside the U-shaped end portion of the hollow fiber bundle and supports and engages the hollow fibers such that each hollow fiber has a relatively wide U-shaped end portion and the hollow fibers are dispersed over the support member. A spacer is provided near the securing part and retains the hollow fibers such that the hollow fibers extend outward of the axis of the securing part and such that longitudinally extending portions of each hollow fiber are spaced apart from each other. Thus, suspended matter entering the bundle of the hollow fibers can be easily removed by washing and there is no possibility of the hollow fibers adhering together.
