Patent attributes
A first adhesion-fixing-portion adhesively fixing hollow fiber membranes together and a hollow fiber membrane bundle and an inner wall of a housing together at an open end of the hollow fiber membranes, and a second adhesion-fixing-portion adhesively fixing the hollow fiber membranes together and the hollow fiber membrane bundle and the inner wall of the housing together at a closed end of the hollow fiber membranes are included. At least one of the second adhesion-fixing-portion and the housing around the second adhesion-fixing-portion has at least one through-hole for introducing liquid fed from the outside of the second adhesion-fixing-portion to a space in the housing. The total area of an opening or openings of at least one through-hole provided outside an outer perimeter of the hollow fiber membrane bundle is 80% or more of the total area of an opening or openings of all of the at least one through-hole.
