Reverse Osmosis
Ideal for rural, commercial and industrial usage
What is Reverse Osmosis?
Reverse Osmosis is a technology used to remove dissolved solids or dissolved salts from water by pushing it under pressure through a semi-permeable membrane. The membrane as a filter is so fine that organic matter, colloidal solids or heavy metals, bacteria and viruses are also removed.
RO membranes can remove over 98% of dissolved salts/solids, over 99% of organic matter and colloidal matter and almost 100% of bacteria and viruses.

Process
Stage 1
Pre-Treatment
Pre-treatment of feed water to the Reverse Osmosis Unit is key to a successful water treatment plant and depending on the water supply quality, various pre-treatment systems are utilised ranging from filter media, sediment filters, and or chemical…The process is as follows:
Media Filtration
1
If required, removes high levels of suspended and colloidal solids
5 Micron Sediment Filter
2
Removes suspended and colloidal solids in the water such as sand, rust, clay & other sediments
Activated Carbon Filter
3
Removes free residual chlorine & organic molecules or dissolved matter
0.5 / 1 Micron Sediment Filter
4
Removes finer sediment and suspended solids as well as some bacteria
Ultraviolet (UV) Light
5
Neutralises bacteria and viruses with Ultraviolet rays
Stage 2
Reverse Osmosis
For the final polish, the pre-treated water is carried to the Reverse Osmosis Unit and pushed, under pressure, through the semi-permeable membrane. The membrane wall prevents any remaining dissolved salts and heavy metals in the water, such as Na, Cl, Mg, Ca, SO4, CO3, to name a few. This allows only pure water to pass through for collection.
