Commercial
Reverse osmosis (RO) systems are used in a variety of commercial applications to substantially reduce the level of totally dissolved solids (TDS) in water. These solids can be a combination of dissolved minerals, colloids, organics, particulate matter and silica. The TDS is reduced from a water supply through the use of a semi-permeable membrane where water is forced to flow from a high salinity, or concentrated solution, to the higher purity, or “permeate” stream, on the opposite side of the membrane.
Light commercial RO systems are successfully used in a multitude of commercial applications from restaurant and horticultural operations to grocery stores and food and beverage production. Many businesses look to these systems to improve their overall operating efficiencies.
Over the years Hausers Water Systems has designed and installed RO systems for businesses throughout the Midwest. Whether you’re in an rural or urban setting, Hausers stands ready to meet the needs of any business application requiring the use of a high purity, low TDS water. We have the experience and knowledge to design a reverse osmosis system that will improve your company’s operating efficiencies.
Industrial
Reverse osmosis (RO) is used to reduce dissolved solids from feed waters with salinities up to 45,000 ppm TDS (total dissolved solids). Municipalities and industrial facilities are able to use RO permeate as a consistently pure drinking water supply and to transform drinking water to high purity water for industrial use at microelectronics, food and beverage, power, and pharmaceutical facilities. The technology is also very effective at reducing certain bacteria, pyrogens, and organic contaminants.
Reverse osmosis occurs when the water is moved across the membrane against the concentration gradient, from lower concentration to higher concentration. To illustrate, imagine a semi-permeable membrane with fresh water on one side and a concentrated aqueous solution on the other. In normal osmosis the fresh water will cross the membrane to dilute the concentrated solution. In reverse osmosis, pressure is exerted on the side with the concentrated solution to force the water molecules across the membrane to the fresh water side.
Reverse osmosis is quite often used in the industrial business sector. It is also one of the methods used to desalinate seawater. Sometimes reverse osmosis is used to purify liquids in which water is an undesirable impurity (e.g., ethanol).
