NWW offers a complete line of Reverse Osmosis (RO) systems to meet the needs of each individual client. All systems are custom designed, based on the client’s raw water source and desired final water quality.
RO is a water purification technology that removes mainly salts such as sodium chloride from water. A pressure applied by a high-pressure pump overcomes the natural osmotic pressure of a solution, allowing water to flow across a semipermeable membrane. RO membrane elements are typically offered in spiral wound configuration of three distinct layers for fluid handling. A feed spacer, or netting, acts as one of the layers and provides vital separation between the membrane surfaces to achieve superior filtration performance.
