In the context of pure drinking water coupled with industrial purification, high-performance reverse osmosis membranes are very important. At PI Pure RO System, India’s trusted RO Plant Manufacturer in Indore, we believe that understanding the membrane at the heart of every RO system helps customers make the right choice to consume clean and safe water.
What is a Reverse Osmosis Membrane?
A reverse osmosis membrane is an impermeable sheet created to eliminate the dissolved salts, chemicals, heavy metals, and impurities of water. Being the central part of any RO system membrane system, it makes sure that only water molecules are allowed to pass through the system, leaving the contaminants behind. This renders it necessary not only in commercial reverse osmosis systems but also in industrial reverse osmosis plants.
How Reverse Osmosis Membranes Work – Step by Step
The operation of the RO membrane is systematic:
- Pre-filtration – Water initially passes through a PP filter cartridge or a wound filter cartridge, which eliminates suspended particles, sediments, and dust.
- Antiscalant Treatment – Special RO antiscalant chemicals or antiscalant chemical dosing inhibit the formation of scale over the membrane surface.
- High-Pressure Flow – FRP pressure vessels and the electronic dosing pumps are used to pressurise water and deliver it across the membrane.
- Separation – The semi-permeable membrane will permit pure water molecules to transfer but exclude the salts, chemicals and bacteria.
- Post-treatment – Activated carbon, e.g. coconut shell activated carbon, is used to enhance taste and odour prior to water storage.
Types of RO Membranes and Applications
PI Pure RO System offers a variety of solutions to a number of different needs, using various membranes:
- Thin Film Composite (TFC) Membranes – These are a popular TFC membrane used in commercial reverse osmosis plants and mineral water RO plants because of the high efficiency.
- Cellulose Acetate Membranes – These are appropriate in cases where there is a requirement for chlorine resistance.
- Low Energy Membranes – This type is optimal when the concern is the energy savings in relation to industrial RO units of water purifiers.
- Ultra-Filter Membrane Filters – In demineralised water plants and commercial Water Softener Systems, an extra purification layer is added with this filter.
Why RO Membranes Are Essential
No manufacturer of an industrial reverse osmosis system or commercial RO plant can be assured of purity without high-quality membranes. They:
- Remove 99% dissolved solids and heavy metals.
- Minimise frequent maintenance by using appropriate RO membrane cleaning chemicals and membrane washing chemicals.
- The support industries, such as pharmaceuticals, food and beverages and commercial establishments, where the continuous water quality is of high importance.
