Gas membranes can be used to rapidly remove volatile solutes like hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide from dilute aqueous solutions. The gas membranes are supported by microporous hydrophobic hollow fibers. The aqueous feed containing the volatile component flows down the fiber lumen, and an aqueous

## Abstract The morphologies of polymeric integrally skinned asymmetric gasβseparation membranes are typically visualized as a thin gasβselective skin region supported by a nonselective, lowβresistance porous structure. The validity of this visualization for defectβfree __and__ defective membranes
A methodology is presented to establish the flow profile induced in a spinneret during the spinning of hollow fiber membranes. The flow equations are derived for a power law fluid passing through a concentric annulus. The pressure drop, the velocity profile, the shear stress profile, and the shear r
