REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM
RO is based on the process of osmosis. Osmosis involves the selective movement of water from one side of a membrane (a plastic film that looks similar to cellophane) to the other. To make the process work, pressure is applied to the contaminated water, forcing water through the membrane. Since contaminants do not move with the water as it moves across the membrane, purer water collects on the other side of the membrane. The purified water that accumulates on one side of the membrane can then be used or stored. A specific amount of pressure is necessary to separate purified water and contaminants.
The levels of most dissolved compounds and suspended matter present in water can be reduced by RO treatment. The efficiency with which membranes reject the contaminant molecules depends on the pollutant concentration and chemical properties of the pollutant. Membrane type and operating conditions will also affect the degree of pollutant removal.
Efficiency of removal is often described using the term "rejection percentage," which is the percent of a particular contaminant that doesn't cross the membrane, i.e., is rejected by the membrane. It is important to know not only rejection percentages, but also incoming pollutant concentrations to effectively reduce contaminant concentrations in the drinking water to safe levels. Basic components of an RO system should include a prefilter to remove fouling agents such as rust and lime; an RO module containing the membrane; an activated carbon postfilter to remove residual taste, odor and some compounds from the purified water; a storage tank; and various valves, including a shut-off valve that stops the water flow when the storage tank is full. The system must also provide for waste flow to drains. Prefilters containing activated carbon are commonly used to protect chlorine-sensitive membranes.
We design and manufacture the Reverse Osmosis Plants according to the need for tap water, brackish water & sea water application. The production range starts from 100 LPH (Liter per hour) to 100 M3 per hour from 400 TDS to 45,000 TDS.
