Engineering design of haemodialysers.
Haemodialysis is a widely used treatment for chronic and acute renal failure and relies on the diffusion of solutes and water in a mass exchanger or haemodialyser. The design concepts of haemodialysers are discussed together with limitations of existing design solutions and work on the optimization of design reviewed.
