Reverse Osmosis Membranes
Reverse Osmosis Membranes
Reverse osmosis is a technique that uses pressure to drive water through specialized membranes to remove foreign pollutants, solid particles, big molecules, and minerals. The technology enhances the quality of water for drinking, cooking, and other essential purposes. Water purification systems rely heavily on reverse osmosis (RO) membranes for the efficient elimination of salts and other contaminants. Many factors, including feed qualities and operational parameters, influence RO membrane performance. An RO system's multi-stage filtration process begins with a set of pre-filters, which remove sediment, large particles, and chlorine; next, water passes through a semipermeable RO membrane, which can filter out most impurities down to.001 microns; and finally, it passes through a set of post-filters (generally a carbon filter to improve taste).
