The Reverse Osmosis process uses a semi-permeable membrane to separate and remove dissolved solids, organics, pyrogens, submicron colloidal matter, viruses, and bacteria from water. The process is called "reverse" osmosis since it requires pressure to force pure water across a membrane, leaving the impurities behind. Reverse Osmosis is capable of removing 95%-99% of the total dissolved solids (TDS) and 99% of all bacteria, thus providing safe, pure water.

THE REVERSE OSMOSIS MEMBRANE ELEMENT

CONCENTRATE WATER containing salta is rejected by the membrane and does not ener the product tube.  the concentrate water exits the side of the element opposite of the feed.  RAW WATER FEED enters into membrane layers.  Applied pressure forces raw water across membrane layers into the product tube.  PRODUCT WATER collects in the produt tube and can be output from either end of the membrane element.
