Water purification is the process of removing undesirable chemicals, biological contaminants, suspended solids and gases from water. The goal is to produce water fit for a specific purpose. Most water is disinfected for human consumption (drinking water), but water purification may also be designed for a variety of other purposes, including fulfilling the requirements of medical, pharmacological, chemical and industrial applications. The methods used include physical processes such as filtration,sedimentation, and distillation; biological processes such as slow sand filters orbiologically active carbon; chemical processes such as flocculation andchlorination and the use of electromagnetic radiation such as ultraviolet light.

Purifying water may reduce the concentration of particulate matter including suspendedparticles, parasites, bacteria, algae, viruses,fungi, as well as reducing the concentration of a range of dissolved and particulate matter.

The standards for drinking water quality are typically set by governments or by international standards. These standards usually include minimum and maximum concentrations of contaminants, depending on the intended purpose of water use.

Visual inspection cannot determine if water is of appropriate quality. Simple procedures such as boiling or the use of a householdactivated carbon filter are not sufficient for treating all the possible contaminants that may be present in water from an unknown source. Even natural spring water – considered safe for all practical purposes in the 19th century – must now be tested before determining what kind of treatment, if any, is needed. Chemical and microbiological analysis, while expensive, are the only way to obtain the information necessary for deciding on the appropriate method of purification.

hope this helps you.

Reverse Osmosis

Reverse Osmosis system involves a simple water filtration mechanism. The filtration system includes passage of water or other solvents through a semi-permeable membrane.
Pre-filters

Water flowing through cold water line valve passes through the Reverse Osmosis Pre-Filters

RO Membrane is an important component of the system. The membrane serves the purpose of removing all sorts of contaminants in water. Water enters into the storage tank after this purification stage.

Storage tank

As the name suggests, this tank purified treated water. The storage capacity of the purifiers differs, which is the reason why you need to check the usage before making the final decision.

Post-filters

Before water stored in the storage tank runs out of the Reverse Osmosis faucet, it enters through the final post-filters. It is actually a carbon filter.
Drain line

The drain line is used to drain out the waste water which consists of dirt and other contaminants
