Osmosis.

Answer 2

Polymer

​In reverse osmosis, membranes are made of Polymer

• We employ a polymer because it needs to let water pass through while trapping microscopic elements including nutrients, chemicals, germs, and viruses.
• Important polymers used to create reverse osmosis membranes include polyamides, piperazine, cellulose acetate, cellulose diacetate, and cellulose triacetate.

• Due to their desirable characteristics, such as their customizable pore structure, strong chemical, mechanical, and thermal resistance, good salt rejection, and/or high water permeability, polymers have garnered a lot of interest.
• Nowadays, the polymeric reverse osmosis is used for desalination of sea, waste water treatment etc.
• Polymers has an additional features of high temperature, corrosive effluent, cost-effective, high mechanical strength etc.
