(Effect of the Invention) As described above, the inorganic tubular separation membrane according to the present invention
A large number of inorganic tubular separation membranes inserted into the casing and the ends of the casing are almost matched, and have a melting point higher than the temperature at which the binder is reactively hardened, and have a fusion fixing agent soluble in water to form an inorganic tubular separation membrane. Close the end of the inner hole of the membrane, the end of the inorganic tubular separation membrane and the end of the casing, and then inject the molten binder into the casing to close the end of the inorganic tubular separation membrane. The inner surface of the casing and the inner surface of the casing are joined together, and the molten fixing agent is dissolved in water to open the end of each inorganic tubular separation membrane, thereby closing the inner hole of each inorganic tubular separation membrane. This eliminates the need for a step of cutting the ends to release the fibers, eliminating the risk of breakage of the inorganic tubular separation membrane, which was inevitable in the conventional bundling method, and using a relatively soft bundling agent. Do It is possible.
