The movement of water from soils into plant roots is an example of Osmosis at work in Nature. When a semi-permeable membrane like a living cell wall,separates, two solutions having different solids concentrations, the pure water will flow from the least concentrated solution through the membrane and into the solution containing the higher solids concentration. RO is the reverse of naturally occurring Osmosis. By applying artificial pressure (Osmotic Pressure) to the water solution of Higher Solids Concentration, the flow of liquid is reversed. Up to %99 per cent of the impurities, bacteria’s and viruses from the incoming water could be removed and taken to drains. Feed water treatment for Steam Boilers, Pharmaceutical, Food and Beverage, bottled water productions are some of the applications in the Industry. Hemodialysis treatment and laboratories are also some application examples in the medical sectors.
