PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a dialysate regeneration system that is more convenient, safe and effective and that significantly improves a patient's quality of life.SOLUTION: A dialysate regeneration system for removing contaminants from spent dialysate includes a dialysate circulation flow path comprising a pump 130, a first cartridge 140 adapted to remove contaminants from the spent dialysate, and a second cartridge 150 adapted to remove urea from the spent dialysate. The pump pumps the spent dialysate through the dialysate circulation flow path. The first cartridge is connected to a first cleaning solution flow path including a first cleaning stage 240. The second cartridge includes semi-permeable hollow fibers adapted for transport of urea across the walls of the semi-permeable hollow fibers and adapted to retain at least calcium, magnesium, and sodium ions in the spent dialysate, and is connected to a second cleaning solution flow path including a second cleaning stage 340. |
