Hollow fiber membrane cartridge and hollow fiber membrane module including same

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a hollow fiber membrane cartridge capable of preventing fiber breakage of a hollow fiber membrane by uniformly supplying a fluid to the hollow fiber membrane and a hollow fiber membrane module. The hollow fiber membrane is accommodated in the hollow fiber membrane cartridge according to an embodiment of the present disclosure and allows a first fluid and a second fluid to perform moisture exchange, wherein the first fluid flows inside the hollow fiber membrane, and the second fluid introduced from outside flows outside the hollow fiber membrane, an opening through which the second fluid is introduced or discharged is formed in the hollow fiber membrane cartridge, a first portion into which the second fluid is introduced and a second portion having a greater inflow flow rate of the second fluid per unit area than that of the first portion are formed in the opening, and a width of the second portion is less than a width of the first portion.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
