✦ Synopsis


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 stripping solution bathes the outside fiber surface. Thus the membrane consists of gas trapped in the hydrophobic pores. The fluxes across these membranes, which can be much faster than those across polymer films, are consistent with a nonlinear mechanism which includes solute ionization.

## Abstract Hollow fibers have been produced and evaluated for use as membrane oxygenators in an artificial heart device. Gas permeable capillaries now commercially available are unsuitable for this use because of: (1) low percent open cross‐sectional area, (2) large internal diameter, and (3) high
