What is RO technology? Information related to RO technology

What is RO technology? The water filter market is extremely bustling and diverse with various brands offering different water filter products with different technologies and functions. Therefore, users also encounter many difficulties in choosing a water filter product. Reverse osmosis (RO) water filter is considered a standout product with its various advantages. Let's learn more about RO technology in the article below by Karofiglobal!

What is RO technology?

RO stands for REVERSE OSMOSIS has been widely researched and applied in the marine and space industries.

After RO technology was widely applied in material life and production, it is now considered the most modern, versatile, and high-end technology in the water filtration industry.

So, what is RO technology? This technology is capable of removing impurities in water such as dust and dirt to provide clean water. However, the water filtration efficiency of this system depends on various factors such as the water supply source, previous treatment systems, or operating modes.

It can be said that RO technology is a very important achievement of science and technology and has become the leading technology in the water filtration and treatment industry. Currently, this technology is widely applied in daily life, and production is considered the most effective solution for filtering clean water, providing pure water sources to ensure health and safety for families.

The outstanding advantages of RO technology 

RO technology is capable of removing up to 99.9% of bacteria in the water stream, ensuring absolute safety that can be used directly without any intervention, such as boiling.

RO technology is capable of removing all bacteria, microorganisms, harmful substances, or chemicals found in input water sources such as river water, rainwater, and well water.

RO water filtration technology is considered to be the most effective technology in producing pure water, surpassing both pre-filtration, ultrafiltration, and reverse osmosis technologies.

What is the operating mechanism of RO technology? 

RO (Reverse Osmosis) technology is understood as a water filtration technology that uses ultrafine membranes with super small pores of about 0.001 micrometers (filtering to the size of ions and atoms) to produce super pure water.

Water filtration machines using RO technology typically filter through the reverse osmosis and mechanical filtration mechanism, meaning that a water pump can be used to create pressure for water to flow through the filter membrane, which helps retain insoluble sediment.

At the same time, the amount of wastewater is completely drained and only the cleanest, purest source of water flows through the filter membrane.

The RO filter membrane usually operates based on the movement mechanism of water molecule components due to the high-pressure compression force of the pump to create a strong flow to push all chemical components, metals, and impurities in the water to wash away to areas with lower pressure, hanging along the flow of wastewater out.

With this operating mechanism, for the machine to operate efficiently, high pressure is required, so the pressure of the normal water supply pipe will not be enough to meet the regular operation of the RO filter membrane, and a strong enough electric motor will be needed to pump water to reach high pressure.

Therefore, household water filtration machines using RO technology will need electricity to operate most effectively. According to research and surveys, for every 40 liters of raw water filtered, 15 or 25 liters of directly drinkable water can be obtained, and the remaining is used for other purposes such as irrigation, washing, and bathing.

Water filtration machines on the market today are all using RO technology, with models ranging from machines with 5 filter stages to machines with 10 filter stages, and the most advanced being machines with 11 water filter stages.

With the current environmental pollution, the use of water filtration machines to protect the health of your family is extremely important. Tap water in the city has never been a truly safe source of water because, in remote areas, water can still contain impurities as usual.

For rural areas, especially those with household water sources that are susceptible to iron, salt, or limestone in the water, it is even more necessary to use water filtration machines to ensure safety for users.

Currently, serious water pollution has led to the water supply containing many potential bacteria, causing risks of diseases related to the feet, hands, and mouth. Activities such as eating, drinking, and living are not guaranteed to be hygienic and safe.

This may be the reason for the development of RO technology to improve water sources and provide pure water for the health and daily life of everyone. The answer to what RO technology has surely been explained in detail to readers through the above information.

Why should you buy an RO water purifier?

RO water purifiers use advanced technology that can effectively filter all types of dirt and bacteria, with the RO filtration system based on Nano Silver antibacterial technology capable of removing all heavy metal impurities, including lead, lime, mercury, or cancer-causing bacteria, harmful to the digestive system, joints causing skin aging,... to produce pure filtered water that is safe for consumption.

RO water filtration technology helps to supplement minerals, not only to clean water but also to increase oxygen levels in water to prevent dehydration, slow down skin aging, and supplement alkaline to eliminate 99.999% of bacteria, enhance the taste of water, as well as balance the pH level.

On average, a water purifier with the ability to filter from 10 to 15 liters of water in 1 hour is sufficient to provide water for family use, especially a water tank with a capacity of 10 to 12 liters of water can be a backup in case of sudden power loss.

Water is provided for all needs, for example, after filtering, the water can be consumed directly without boiling. Moreover, water with many minerals can be used to wash the face, cook, brew, wash food, etc.

However, RO water purifiers also have their drawbacks, for example, if the filtered water is too dirty or heavily contaminated with salt, without prior coarse filtration treatment, it will affect the filtration system. In many cases, you need to monitor the condition of the filtration system to ensure a continuous supply of clean water.

In addition, you should not clean or replace the filtration system yourself without guidance, as it may damage the membrane.
