Abstract: An improved tubular membrane filtration module including an outer cylinder and a plurality of water permeable non-woven fabric pipes formed on the inside thereof, the non-woven fabric pipes being inserted into the outer cylinder in a closely bundled state, the spaces between the fabric pipes and the outer cylinder at each end thereof being filled with hardened synthetic resin to fix and seal the assembly. The ends of the non-woven fabric pipes are coated with a resin such that the inside coating of resin at the end of the fabric pipes is less than that on the inside thereof.

Abstract: A liquid separation tube having a tubular membrane inside of a porous support tube and an end part which is insertable into a coupling member has a seal structure which allows the use of a relatively thin adapter which is to be inserted within a packing. In the seal structure, annular grooves are provided on either the outside circumferential wall of the adapter or the inside circumferential wall of the packing and passages are formed through the adapter in the vicinity of the annular grooves so that a pressurized feed solution can expand the packing in the vicinity of the annular grooves to provide a seal between the packing and the tubular membrane.
