Beschreibung:
In this process, pressure is applied to salty water, pressing it against a semi-permeable membrane with extremely small pores. The pore size allows water molecules of around 0.28 nm to pass through, while salt ions are kept back. (Although salt ions in and of themselves are smaller than water molecules, in this case they are significantly larger due to their bonded hydration shell).
This process is used in large plants around the world to desalinate seawater in areas with shortages of drinking water.
Information and ideas:
In addition to reverse osmosis, there are other membrane filter procedures that differ in the pore size of the membrane:
• Microfiltration
• Ultrafiltration
• Nanofiltration
