Reverse Osmosis Technology

Reverse osmosis is a frequent phase in domestic drinking water purification systems used to improve drinking and cooking water all over the world.

Usually, these systems consist of several steps:

a sediment filter to capture debris, such as calcium carbonate and rust.

An additional sediment filter with narrower pores is optional.

Thin-film composite membrane reverse osmosis membranes will be attacked and degraded by organic compounds and chlorine, which are captured by an activated carbon filter.

A second carbon filter is optional and can be used to catch contaminants that the reverse osmosis membrane is unable to remove.

An ultraviolet lamp is optional for sterilizing any microorganisms that could evade the reverse osmosis membrane's filtration.
