In recent years, as the public’s demand for water quality is getting higher and higher, a variety of water purification products also flocked to enter the market, a variety of filtration technologies and materials for users to choose the time dizzy, I do not know when the word “RO reverse osmosis” is always repeatedly emphasized by the business, as the core selling point was placed on the first page of the introduction of goods. Today, I would like to popularize with you, in the end, what is RO reverse osmosis? Why should we choose RO reverse osmosis?
What are the cartridges of the water purifier?
In understanding RO reverse osmosis, we first come to understand most of the current water purification products in the cartridge: a water purification machine is nothing more than a few kinds of cartridges: PP cotton, activated carbon, ultrafiltration membranes, RO membranes, most of these cartridges in different machines are just different order.
PP cotton filter is often placed in the first level of filtration, basically all water purification machines have its figure, the main role is to filter out the tap water in the first large particles of impurities; activated carbon is a lot of black granular carbon, adsorption and expectorant, decolorization, filtration and purification, adsorption is super strong, and even some people used to be placed in the refrigerator to absorb the smell; ultrafiltration membrane filtration accuracy of 0.01 μm, you can remove the colloid filter, Bacteria, algae and other macromolecular pollutants, but can not filter metal ions.
And we are going to talk about the RO membrane, its pores are even smaller, small to the naked eye can not see. 0.1nm pores can block basically all the impurities and heavy metals, so that the simple H2O, the size of this pore is only one millionth of the size of a hair.
What is RO reverse osmosis?
Reverse osmosis is a new membrane separation technology developed in the 1960s, which relies on reverse osmosis membranes to separate solvents and solutes in a solution under pressure. The full name of reverse osmosis is “REVERSEOSMOSIS”, abbreviated as “RO”.
How does it work?
The general flow of water is from low concentration to high concentration, once the water is pressurized, it will flow from high concentration to low concentration, and reverse osmosis will be formed.
RO reverse osmosis membrane pore size is as small as nanometer, under certain pressure, water molecules can pass through the RO membrane, while the inorganic salts, heavy metal ions, organics, colloids, bacteria, viruses and other impurities in the source water can not pass through the RO membrane, so that can pass through the pure water and can not pass through the concentration of the water is strictly differentiated.
And Frizzlife‘s WB99 Countertop Reverse Osmosis System is one of the best choices when it comes to buying a reverse osmosis system.
By combining carbon fiber, 100-gallon RO membranes, and alkaline particles, the Frizzlife WB99-C Countertop Reverse Osmosis System effectively reduces more than 1,000 harmful contaminants (99.99%), including chlorine, fluoride, lead and other heavy metals, arsenic, chloramines, TDS, scale, VOCs, and more.The SC90 Alkaline Filter addresses the side-effects of RO water and raises the pH level, which is is beneficial to long-term health.
Why Wastewater Exists
I’m sure those of you who know a little about RO reverse osmosis have heard the term wastewater rate.
The so-called wastewater, because the water molecules through the RO membrane is not easy, need to be pressurized in order to pass, in order to protect the RO membrane, the pressure can not be too high, there are manufacturers to set the pressure at only 20% of the water molecules can be passed through the RO membrane, can not be passed through the RO membrane of the water is wastewater.
The so-called 4:1 wastewater rate, that is, a box of water filtration, get four cups of pure water, a cup of wastewater. General wastewater is rich in more impurities, has been unsuitable for drinking, can be used to mop the floor, watering flowers.
Your reason for choosing RO?
Through the above explanation, I believe you have realized that RO filter is currently on the market among all the filter cartridges with the best purification effect, can effectively remove calcium, magnesium, bacteria, organic matter, inorganic substances, metal ions and radioactive substances in the water, etc., purified water crystal clear, sweet and mellow taste. Many people will also have doubts: pure water is too pure, drink too much will not be harmful to the human body? I do not know that 95% of the nutritional requirements of the human body are from food intake, by drinking water intake of nutrients is insignificant in comparison.
Therefore, the choice of RO reverse osmosis, the choice is actually a piece of mind.
