Disclosed herein are aspects and embodiments of filtration membrane modules including porous membranes and methods and structures associated with potting ends of the porous membranes in the membrane modules. In one example, there is provided a method of forming a filtration module. The method comprises securing a portion of a porous membrane in a pre-pot, positioning at least a portion of the pre-pot in a potting mold, introducing a pot forming substance into the potting mold, the pot forming substance surrounding at least a portion of the pre-pot and at least a portion of the porous membrane, curing the second pot forming substance to form a membrane pot, and separating the membrane pot from the potting mold.
