Abstract: A filtration assembly comprising a first and second module, each module comprising a plurality of vertically aligned semi-permeable hollow fiber membranes extending along a length between first and second ends with one of said ends potted within a header, and wherein the headers of the modules are aligned and spaced apart to define a vertical flow path; and at least one fiber support positioned along the length of the hollow fiber membranes of both modules, wherein the fiber support comprises a frame including a plurality of partitions that segment the hollow fiber membranes of both modules into common fiber groupings passing through the fiber support.

Abstract: A filtration module including a plurality of vertically aligned semi-permeable hollow fiber membranes, a plurality of fiber supports spaced apart and along the length of the hollow fiber membranes wherein each fiber support comprises a plurality of partitions that segment the hollow fiber membranes into multiple groupings and wherein a plurality of the groupings of one fiber support are distinct from those of another.

Abstract: The instant invention is a free radical initiator system, and a high pressure, free radical polymerization process for producing a low density polyethylene polymer. The free radical initiator system according to instant invention includes at least one peroxide initiator, at least one hydrocarbon solvent, and at least one polar co-solvent. The high pressure, free radical polymerization process for producing a low density polyethylene polymer includes the steps of polymerizing ethylene and optionally at least one comonomer under high pressure conditions using a free radical initiator system comprising at least one peroxide initiator, at least one hydrocarbon solvent, and at least polar co-solvent.
