Abstract: This invention is made to provide a formed article which ensures, for example, that an active substance included therein and a substance outside capsules can effectively come in contact with each other without suffering influences such as a pressure loss. This invention is a formed article having a plurality of cells formed in a polymer (A), (1) each cell including an active substance, (2) the polymer (A) having pores, each pore communicating with other pores and having a diameter in the range of 1 nm to 1 ?m, and (3) the internal wall of each cell and the active substance being substantially not in contact with each other.

Abstract: An apparatus for regenerating a spent photograhic bleach-fixer solution, comprising (a) an electrodialysis cell including a cathode, an anode and alternating anion exchange membranes and cation exchange membranes arranged therebetween to define a cathode compartment, a plurality of alternating intermediate enionation and deionation compartments and an anode compartment, (b) an electrolysis cell connected to the enionation compartments of the electrodialysis cell so that an aqueous solution capable of dissolving silver salts can be circulated between the electrolysis cell and the enionation compartments, (c) a circulating tank for the spent bleach-fixer solution connected to the deionation compartments and the anode compartment of the electrodialysis cell for circulating the spent bleach-fixer solution between the circulating tank and both the deionation compartments and the anode compartment, and (d) a circulating tank for an electrolyte solution connected to the cathode compartment of the electrodialysis cel
