Reverse osmosis is the process of passing water through a filter to improve the quality of the water. The advantages of such a process are that it is environmentally friendly as it does not use chemicals, it can be small in size, it does not use much power and it improves the taste of the water by removing contaminants.

What is the world health standard for Total dissolved solids for Reverse osmosis filters?
Reverse osmosis removes ALL dissolved solids, unless the filter membrane is damaged.
How does reverse osmosis work?
Reverse osmosis filters certain types of molecules and ions by applying pressure on one side of the membrane. Reverse osmosis works by introducing a large amount of pressure to a solution to remove large molecules and/or ions completely. This process is similar to other osmosis exercises.
What is the minimum inlet water pressure for domestic Reverse osmosis water filters?
