Given below, are a few of the technologies used by these appliances to make sure you get clean drinking water, always.
1. Reverse Osmosis (RO Water Purifiers):- This is the most widely used method to purify water. Membrane technology is used, which removes dissolved salts, bacteria and other impurities from the water. Separating germs and dissolved chemicals from water, the membrane has fine pores, which allow only water to pass through, effectively trapping all the harmful chemicals and microbes.
2. UF Purification:-Using technology similar to RO membranes, these membranes remove impurities like particulate matter, pathogenic organisms, etc. A UF water purifier works by physically removing all the germs and bacteria present in drinking water.
3. Multi-stage purifiers:- Also known as Universal Water purifiers, these use a combination of technologies to make sure that the water is clean and germ-free. The combinations may be either RO+UV filters, or RO+UV+UF filters.
