Reverse osmosis is a water purification process that uses a semipermeable membrane to remove ions, molecules, and larger particles from drinking water. In this process, pressure is applied to overcome osmotic pressure, allowing water to flow from an area of higher concentration of solutes (saltwater) to an area of lower concentration (freshwater), effectively filtering out the salt and other impurities.
