The Reverse Osmosis process, also known as hyper filtration, is the finest filtration process known
till date. The process ensures the removal of particles as small as ions from a solution. Reverse
Osmosis uses a semi-permeable membrane to remove salts from potable / brackish water. In
Reverse Osmosis, water pressure applied to the concentrated side forces the process of osmosis
into reverse. Under enough pressure, pure water is "squeezed" through the membrane from the
concentrated side to the diluted side. Salts dissolved in water as charged ions are repelled by the
RO membrane. The rejected impurities on the concentrated side of the membrane are washed
away in a stream of waste water and thus not get accumulated as on a traditional filter.
Ultra Filtration is a separation process that uses membranes with pore sizes in the range of 0.1 to
0.01 micron. UF membranes remove high molecular-weight substances, colloidal materials, and
organic and inorganic polymeric molecules including bacteria and viruses. Low applied pressures
are therefore sufficient to achieve high flux rates from an Ultra Filtration membrane.
