Reverse osmosis is also referred to as RO. Reverse osmosis is a system that helps to purify your water. It is kind of like a filtration system but a slightly different process. The Ro works by forcing the through the membrane and then it keeps the solute on one side and then it lets the purified water thru. It is different from the filtration system because the filtration system uses a straining method to purify the water.
When they are talking about membranes it starts to sound very medical. What a membrane is a substance that only lets certain materials or ions pass thru to the other side. There are different kinds of membranes. The different types are selectively-permeable membrane, a partially-permeable membrane, or a differentially-permeable membrane. There are different things that affect the rate of passage. The three factors that can affect the rate of passage are the pressure, the concentration, or the temperature.
