Home Reverse Osmosis Desalination System
I. Why choose Reverse Osmosis (RO) for desalination?
Reverse osmosis technology is one of the most mature and efficient desalination solutions available. Compared with other desalination methods, RO technology has the following significant advantages:
1. Desalination rate of more than 99%, can effectively remove salt and impurities in seawater
2. Stable and reliable water production, not affected by weather and environment.
3. Simple system operation and maintenance, suitable for long-term use
RO desalination equipment is widely used:
1. Domestic water in islands and coastal areas
2. Fresh water supply for ships, yachts and other offshore facilities
3. Emergency water supply for camping, outdoor exploration and other emergency water scenarios
4. Fresh water demand in small commercial places
II. Working Principle of Household RO Desalination Equipment
Modern household RO desalination system usually adopts the following process flow:
1. Pre-treatment system:
• Sand filtration: removes suspended solids and large particles.
• Carbon filtration: adsorption of residual chlorine and organic matter
• Softening: Reduce the hardness of water to prevent scaling
2. High pressure pump:
• Provide 50-80bar working pressure
• Ensures that the reverse osmosis membrane works properly
3. Reverse osmosis membrane:
• The core component, realizing the separation of salt and fresh water
• Made of polymer material with a pore size of only 0.1 nanometers.
4. Post-treatment system (optional)
• Mineralization: improves taste
• UV sterilization: to ensure water safety

V. How to choose a suitable household RO desalination equipment?
The following factors are recommended to be considered when choosing a domestic RO desalination plant:
1. Water production demand:
• According to the number of family members and the use of demand to choose the appropriate size
• General family can choose 0.5-2T / H equipment
2. Energy consumption requirements:
• Consider the power consumption of the equipment
• Solar-powered models can be selected
3. Water quality requirements:
• Whether additional post-treatment system is required
• Configuration options based on local water quality
4. Budget Range:
• Portable units are less expensive
• Fully automated systems are more expensive but easier to use.
VI. RO Desalination Equipment Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the life span of RO desalination equipment?
A: RO membrane usually lasts for 2-3 years, and the pre-treatment cartridge needs to be replaced once every 6-12 months.
Q: Is the power consumption of home RO equipment high?
A: 1T/H equipment consumes about 1-2 kWh of electricity per day, and you can choose to use it with solar cells for more energy saving.
Q:Can I drink the desalinated water directly?
A: It is recommended to go through post-treatment such as mineralization and UV sterilization to ensure the water quality is safe and tastes good.
VII. Maintenance and care guide
• Monthly check: pressure gauge, flow meter
• Semi-annual replacement: pre-filter cartridge (PP cotton, activated carbon)
• Annual professional cleaning: RO membrane chemical cleaning
