How Industrial Reverse Osmosis Water Filter System Works

There are many types of water filter systems available for processing and treating desalinated water. Industrial reverse osmosis water filter system is a specific type of filtration that caters to industrial companies concerning their clean water requirements. This type of system is able to filter out 95 to 99 percent of the components or solutes in the water such as salts, organics, and other solid particles.

So how does this kind of filter system work? Inside these devices, a semi-permeable membrane is used to dilute a highly concentrated solution wherein the liquid is forced into the membrane via a pump. The applied force in the pump continues to increase in order to push the liquid through the membrane and successfully remove all the unwanted contaminants.

Temperature plays an important role in the whole process, as this is interdependent with the required compression. Ideal temperature for favorable and high quality processed water is 77°F.

Moreover, administering pre-treatment is important for water with high concentrations of iron, chlorine, and other particles, to be able to meet desired quality. Post-treatment, on the other hand, is essential in achieving sterilized water.

The purified water is then referred to as the “permeate,” while the particles that were removed are called the “concentrate” as they become waste. It is important that wastes be expelled properly to maintain the good condition of the membrane.
