Reverse Osmosis(RO) membrane filtration

Reverse Osmosis (RO) Membrane Filtration is a water purification technology
that uses a semi-permeable membrane to remove a wide range of impurities from
water. The process is driven by pressure, forcing water molecules through the
membrane while rejecting contaminants such as salts, bacteria, and other
dissolved solids.

How It Works
Pre-Treatment:
Water first passes through pre-filters, such as sediment and activated carbon
filters, which remove larger particles, chlorine, and other chemicals that
could damage the RO membrane.

Reverse Osmosis Process:
Under applied pressure, water is forced against a semi-permeable membrane. This
membrane has tiny pores that allow only water molecules to pass through while
blocking larger solutes, including dissolved salts, organic compounds, and
microorganisms.
