Water & Wastewater Treatment

Access to clean drinking water is a growing challenge in many regions around the world. With the increasing depletion of freshwater resources and rising energy costs, there is an urgent need for sustainable, energy-efficient water purification solutions. Solar-based reverse osmosis (RO) water purification systems offer a promising alternative that combines renewable energy with advanced filtration technology to provide safe and clean drinking water. Understanding Reverse Osmosis (RO) Reverse osmosis is a water purification process that removes impurities, contaminants, and salts from water by forcing it through a semi-permeable membrane. The membrane allows water molecules to pass through while blocking larger particles, harmful chemicals, and microorganisms. This technology is widely used to treat brackish, saline, and contaminated water to make it safe for drinking and other uses. However, traditional RO systems rely heavily on electricity, making them less viable in off-grid or ener...
