- Reverse Osmosis Water Filtration System- The Next Generation Of Water Filtration
By: Christoffer X Altesino | - Osmosis is the diffusion or movement of solvent (or water) across a membrane (semipermeable) in response to a concentration gradient to equalize the solute's concentration on the both sides. It is driven by the difference in the osmotic pressure and is an important factor in our daily life in different aspects. In case of reverse osmosis (RO) a pressure is applied to force the water molecule or a solution through the semipermeable membrane causing retention of the solute and enabling the solvent ...
