People who suffer from end stage renal desease frequently undergo
dialysis on a fixed schedule. For patients this artificial washing of
the blood is a major burden. To remove toxins from the blood, large
quantities of dialysis water for clearance are required. Until now there
has been no solution so far to recover this dialysate cost-effectively.
Therefore a cryo-purification method is being developed by Fraunhofer
researchers that clears the water without loosing it. This approach not
only reduces costs—it may even pave the way for a wearable artificial
kidney by milder long-term dialysis treatment at complete water
autonomy. -->
