The Industrial Reverse Osmosis System

An industrial reverse osmosis system is a water treatment process that is highly effective for eliminating up to 99 percent of organics, dissolved mineral salts and other particles. It does this by forcing water through a semi-permeable membrane, through which dissolved solids are unable to pass through.

Industrial reverse osmosis systems can treat almost any kind of water if certain guidelines are followed. Pretreatment is done in order to make sure that colloidal materials, metals, and suspended solids are completely removed. It also helps preserve the life of the membrane. Various filters are made for the purpose of removing certain materials from the water. Post-treatment may be done if the water needs to be sterilized or rendered ultra-pure.

Reverse osmosis is widely used in many areas where high quality water is needed, from industries to homes. It is available in many production capacities, and this would depend on where it is to be used. A system can handle up to thousands of gallons per day, if this is needed.

Reverse osmosis provides pure, clean drinking water by removing unwanted odors and tastes. This is being used by most leading water bottling plants in order to provide their customers with pure drinking water. It is also used for chemical process water, ice making, pharmaceutics, horticulture, printing, vehicle washes and food and beverage processing among many other applications.
