Overview
Reverse osmosis (RO) is a water purification process that uses a semipermeable membrane to remove undesirable particles, molecules, and minerals from water. The process involves applying pressure to water, forcing it through a membrane that allows water molecules to pass through while blocking the passage of larger particles, such as dissolved minerals and other contaminants.
RO is particularly useful for treating seawater and well water with high conductivity, as well as other sources of water that contain high levels of dissolved salts and minerals. The resulting purified water can be used for a variety of applications, including drinking water, industrial processes, and agricultural irrigation.
