Contactor module and contactor panel including contactor module

A contactor module for a contactor panel, the contactor module comprising:

• a frame member;
• a contactor media coupled to the frame member, the contactor media defining a first side and a second side, wherein the contactor media includes:
• at least one first membrane array including a plurality of first hollow fibers extending along a first fiber axis, wherein the at least one first membrane array defines a first axis that is generally perpendicular to the first fiber axis and extending along the at least one first membrane array;
• and
• at least one second membrane array including a plurality of second hollow fibers extending along a second fiber axis, wherein the at least one second membrane array defines a second axis that is generally perpendicular to the second fiber axis and extending along the at least one second membrane array,
• wherein the at least one first membrane array and the at least one second membrane array is disposed such that a first inclination angle is defined between the first axis of the at least one first membrane array and the second axis of the at least one second membrane array, and wherein the first inclination angle is greater than zero degree and less than 180 degrees;
• and
• at least one separator structure disposed adjacent to the contactor media, wherein a shape of the at least one separator structure is similar to a shape of the contactor media in order to provide support for the contactor media,
• wherein the contactor media includes a plurality of first membrane arrays and a plurality of second membrane arrays, and the contactor media is a continuous membrane array defining the plurality of first membrane arrays and the plurality of second membrane arrays.
