Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In hemodialysis, a machine filters wastes, salts and fluid from your blood when your kidneys are no longer healthy enough to do this work adequately. Hemodialysis (he-moe-die-AL-uh-sis) is one way to treat advanced kidney failure and can help you carry on an active life despite failing kidneys.

Detailed explanation-2: -During haemodialysis your blood goes through a special machine called a ‘dialyser’. The machine removes waste and extra fluid from your blood before pumping it back into your body. You can do dialysis at a renal unit or in your home.
