In recent years, as people’s pursuit of quality of life is increasingly improved, the requirements of water quality is also increasingly high. Into the market, a variety of water purification products, dazzling. From PP cotton to activated carbon, from ultra-filtration membrane to RO membrane, a variety of filtration technologies and materials are endless. In these products, “RO reverse osmosis” this word is always repeatedly emphasized by the business, as the core selling point in a prominent position. Today, we will come to an in-depth popularization tour to see what RO reverse osmosis in the end, why it will become our first choice?
Water filter cartridge family: who is your patron saint?
Before understanding RO reverse osmosis, let’s first recognize a few members of the family of water purifier cartridges. A water purifier, no matter how the appearance changes, the cartridge is always its core components. There are several common cartridges:
RO membrane cartridge
Today we are going to focus on the RO membrane cartridge, which is the superhero of the water purification industry. Its pore size is so small that it is invisible to the naked eye, only 0.1 nanometre, about one millionth of a hair. Such a small pore space is able to block almost all impurities and heavy metals, allowing only simple water molecules to pass through and get pure H2O.
For example, the Frizz-life WB99 Countertop Reverse Osmosis System By combining carbon fiber, a 100-gallon RO membrane, and alkaline granules, the Frizz-life 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, chlorinates, TDS, scale, Vocals, and more.SC90 Alkaline filter addresses the side effects of RO water and raises the pH level, which is beneficial for long-term health.
PP cotton cartridge
PP cotton cartridge, almost every water purifier has its figure. It is usually placed in the first level of filtration, mainly responsible for intercepting large particles of impurities in the tap water, such as sediment, rust, etc. PP cotton cartridge is like a brave warrior, guarding the door of the water purifier, to ensure that the subsequent cartridges operate normally.
Activated carbon cartridge
Activated carbon cartridge, a small black particles, do not underestimate them, they are adsorption and purification master. Activated carbon has a strong adsorption, not only can adsorb odor, pigment in the water, but also remove residual chlorine and other harmful substances in the water. Some people even put activated carbon in the refrigerator to adsorb odors, the effect is great.
Ultra-filtration membrane cartridge
Ultra-filtration membrane cartridge, filtration accuracy of 0.01 microns, can filter out the water colloid, bacteria, algae and other macro-molecular pollutants. However, its filtering effect on small molecules such as metal ions is not so ideal. Ultra-filtration membrane cartridge is like a careful guardian, guarding the safety of our drinking water.
Reverse Osmosis
What is reverse osmosis?
RO reverse osmosis is a new membrane separation technology developed in the 1960s. Its full name in English is “REVERSE OSMOSIS”, abbreviated as “RO”. Simply put, reverse osmosis is under a certain pressure, so that the solvent and solute in the solution to separate the process.
How does RO work?
We know that normally, water flows from a low concentration to a high concentration. But in the reverse osmosis process, the water is pressurized, will flow from high concentration to low concentration, the formation of reverse osmosis. RO reverse osmosis membrane pore size is small to the nanometre scale, under a certain pressure, the water molecules can pass through the RO membrane, while the source of the water of the inorganic salts, heavy metal ions, organics, colloid, bacteria, viruses and other impurities can not pass through the RO membrane. In this way, pure water and concentrated water are strictly distinguished.
Wastewater: a by-product of reverse osmosis
When it comes to RO reverse osmosis, many people will think of the term wastewater rate. Wastewater because it is not easy for water molecules to pass through the RO membrane, it needs to be pressurized to pass through. In order to protect the RO membrane, manufacturers set the pressure within a reasonable range, and usually only about 20% of the water molecules can pass through the RO membrane. Those that cannot pass through the RO membrane become wastewater. Generally speaking, wastewater is rich in impurities and is no longer suitable for drinking, but it can be used for mopping floors, watering flowers, etc.
Reasons to choose RO: purification effect, impeccable
Through the above introduction, I believe you have realized that RO cartridge is the best purification effect among all the cartridges on the market at present. It can effectively remove calcium, magnesium, bacteria, organic matter, inorganic matter, metal ions and radioactive substances in the water, etc., purified water crystal clear, sweet and mellow taste.
Many people may worry that pure water is too pure, drink too much will not be harmful to the human body? In fact, this worry is superfluous. The human body needs 95% of the nutrients are from food intake, by drinking water intake of nutrients is minimal. Therefore, choose RO reverse osmosis, is to choose a piece of mind.
Conclusion
Well, today’s water purification knowledge is here! I hope this article can bring some help to you who are choosing water purification products or have already purchased but still have doubts, RO reverse osmosis cartridge with its excellent purification effect, has become the best choice for us to guard the health of drinking water. Of course, everyone’s needs and circumstances are different, choose the right water purification products is the most important thing.
