Reverse Osmosis System

A RO system is a method of producing pure water via raw water passing through a semi-permeable membrane in a direction opposite to that for natural osmosis when it is subjected to a hydrostatic pressure greater than the osmotic pressure.

RO is used for water filtration in a wide range of applications including desalination of seawater and in the production of demineralised water for use in other applications, such as component rinse systems prior to a coating process. The semi-permeable membrane employed for reverse osmosis is capable of rejecting 99.9% of bacteria and is therefore used frequently in the design of pharmaceutical pure water systems.

Membracon offer a wide range of reverse osmosis plants and replacement membranes, along with a  wide range of pre-treatment equipment including softeners, activated carbon filters, and multi-media filters.

A complete product range is available from single RO systems to accommodate 150l/h right up to those capable of 50,000l/h with all the associated pre and post equipment from filters to storage tanks and the interconnecting pipework.
