Abstract
Typical modular-type filters have the housing and filter packed in one unit which must be replaced with an entirely new unit in order to exchange the filter. In pursuit of environmental preservation, we developed a new cartridge-type hollow fiber filter with a separate filter cartridge to be replaced by a new one, thus reducing cost and waste. This new full-size cartridge has a large diameter of six inches and an increased effective filtration area to efficiently handle large-volume capacity.
