Hollow fiber is the most widely used ultrafiltration module. It utilizes numerous long porous filaments inside the body. Owing to the shape of the module, the membrane has a large surface area, which allows it to filter large volumes while utilizing minimal space and energy. The filaments inside the body of the module are very narrow in diameter and are flexible. Owing to the small strand diameter, the module has a high packing density. These modules are more likely to break under high strain as they are flexible. The major disadvantages of the module are irreversible fouling and easy breakage. High membrane packing density resulting in high throughput, controlled flow hydraulics, and tangential flow feed limiting membrane fouling are the major advantages of the hollow fiber ultrafiltration module.
