Reverse Osmosis Systems
Reverse osmosis (RO) is a membrane process designed primarily for the removal of TDS (Total Dissolved Solids). RO also removes TOC’s (Total Organic Carbon) and colloidal materials. RO supplements ion exchange in applications where there is a wide variation in process water quality. RO can replace both primary Cation and Anion systems, with benefits that include continuous operation and reduced regeneration chemical consumption. RO units are composed of pressurized housings containing high-purity membranes. Where single-pass reverse osmosis cannot achieve an acceptable water quality, double-pass systems can be used.
When do you need it?
Use RO for continuous operation to reduce regeneration chemical usage and when the raw water is high in TDS. RO systems also remove more TOC’s (Total Organic Carbon) than conventional deionization systems.
