Actually the main purpose of proximal convoluted tubule is to reabsorb most of the materials from the filtrate as it passes through.
Convoluted tubule is the part of duct which leads from Bowman's capsule to the Loop of Henle.
It reabsorbs nearly 65% of sodium and most of the water from filtrate. This re-absorption into the proximal tubule is driven by the sodium transport from the lumen into the blood by Sodium/Potassium ATPase.
On a high level, tubule re-absorbs 2/3rd of salt and water, 100% of organic solutes, 65% of potassium, 80% of phosphate, and about 50% of urea among other things.
