Abstract
A submerged-type hollow fiber membrane module and a method for manufacturing the same are disclosed, which is capable of realizing a great sealing strength between a module case and a bundle of hollow fiber membranes without an additional centrifugal molding apparatus. The method includes forming a bundle of hollow fiber membranes held together and fixed by a first potting material, wherein one end of each of the hollow fiber membranes is open; putting the bundle of hollow fiber membranes in a module case and fixing the bundle of hollow fiber membranes in the module case by forming a second potting material on the first potting material.
