DOW RO Membrane - BW30-365 8040 Solid Filter Cartridge  (0.0005, Pack of 1)

Reverse osmosis (RO) is a water purification process that uses a semi-permeable membrane to separate ions, unwanted molecules, and larger particles from drinking water. Water is forced through these membranes with the use of pressure and force (typically from a pumping system), the usual process of osmosis is reversed via feedwater being pushed through the semi-permeable membranes.
