Elmatec designs and manufactures turnkey reverse osmosis units to address your specific problems or requirements.

Osmosis is a natural phenomenon in which a « pure » solution naturally passes through a semi-permeable membrane to dilute a « concentrated » solution of mineral salts. The osmotic pressure corresponds to the balance between the two compartments.

Reverse osmosis involves applying pressure to the salt water compartment to force water through the semipermeable membrane to produce purified water. For this water to pass through the membrane, the pressure applied must be higher than the osmotic pressure, which is directly related to the salt concentration of the water to be treated.
