Reverse osmosis is a pressure-driven membrane separation process utilized for purifying water and selectively removing ions, molecules, and larger particles. This technology applies pressure exceeding the osmotic pressure of a solution to force water molecules through a semipermeable membrane, leaving contaminants behind. Its importance stems from providing high-quality water for drinking, industrial processes, and wastewater treatment, addressing critical global water scarcity challenges. Research into reverse osmosis encompasses membrane materials science, fouling control, energy efficiency improvements – including techniques like pressure-retarded osmosis and forward osmosis – and optimization of system design for diverse applications like desalination, water recycling, and food & beverage processing. Understanding the principles of membrane transport, solute rejection, and concentration polarization is crucial for advancing this field.
