Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Reverse osmosis uses membranes with the smallest pores to separate water from other solutes or dissolved substances. Through this process, water molecules are allowed to pass through the membrane, while other molecules and ions are left behind, resulting in purified water. Ultrafiltration, microfiltration, and clarification also use membranes, but with larger pore sizes and different separation mechanisms, and are used for different applications.
