Why is reverse osmosis effective in removing heavy metals and dissolved salts from water?

As AIBOTE with 19 years of experience in manufacturing professional drinking water equipment, we understand the importance of water quality and safety.Reverse osmosis (RO) technology is able to efficiently remove heavy metals and dissolved salts from water, mainly due to its unique physical screening principle and selective separation mechanism.With years of technical accumulation, AIBOTE has developed a superb product lineup of six product series and nearly 100 individual products, among which the reverse osmosis water purifier adopts high-precision RO membrane to ensure stable and reliable filtration performance.The reverse osmosis membrane has a very small pore size, which can effectively block the passage of heavy metal ions and dissolved salts, while the chemical properties of the membrane material have a repulsive effect on the charged ions, further strengthening the purification effect.

In the reverse osmosis process, high pressure drive is the key, AIBOTE relies on advanced system operation capabilities to optimise the pressure control of the RO system, to ensure that the water flows through efficiently, while heavy metals and dissolved salts are completely retained.Traditional water purification technologies such as activated carbon filtration can only adsorb some pollutants, while ultrafiltration (UF) is unable to remove ionic-level impurities.In contrast, AIBOTE's reverse osmosis water purification equipment provides safer drinking water by virtue of its finer filtration layers, which efficiently removes heavy metals such as lead, arsenic and mercury, as well as dissolved salts such as calcium, magnesium and sodium.

In practical application, AIBOTE combines intelligent manufacturing technology to ensure the stable operation of RO system.For example, for the problem of insufficient water pressure in high-rise housing, our products can be equipped with an optional intelligent booster pump to ensure filtration efficiency; for the optimisation of wastewater ratio, we adopt a new type of low-pressure RO membrane technology to reduce the waste of water.In addition, AIBOTE's reverse osmosis water purifiers are equipped with multiple filter protection systems to extend the life of the RO membrane and reduce the cost of use.

Of course, reverse osmosis technology also has some limitations, such as the loss of minerals.For this reason, AIBOTE has added a post-mineralisation cartridge in some of its high-end models to replenish calcium, magnesium and other trace elements needed by the human body, making the water quality healthier.At the same time, we continue to optimise the wastewater recycling technology, and the wastewater ratio of some models has been reduced to 1:1, taking into account environmental protection and high efficiency.

With rich product lines and mature technical solutions, AIBOTE's reverse osmosis water purification equipment has won the trust of domestic and foreign partners, and gradually realised the upgrade from traditional manufacturing to intelligent manufacturing.We believe that through continuous technological innovation, reverse osmosis water purification technology will continue to lead the new standard of safe drinking water and provide better water purification solutions for global users.
