Abstract
The present invention provides a baffle which facilitates the installation of a separation membrane in a separation membrane module that has a plurality of separation membranes, and which does not damage a surface when the separation membrane is inserted into the separation membrane module. Provided is a baffle for improving the contact efficiency between a fluid and a tubular separation membrane in a multitubular separation membrane module, the baffle being characterized in that: the baffle is provided with an insertion hole for inserting the tubular separation membrane; and the inner diameter of the insertion hole narrows toward the insertion direction of the tubular separation membrane, thereby facilitating the installation of the tubular separation membrane in the module.
