Water Purification Technologies Explained
RO (Reverse Osmosis)
How it works: Forces water through a semi-permeable membrane, removing dissolved solids and contaminants.
Removes: Heavy metals, fluoride, arsenic, nitrates, TDS, bacteria, viruses
Best for: High TDS water (>500 ppm), areas with heavy contamination
UV (Ultraviolet)
How it works: UV light kills bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms.
Removes: Bacteria, viruses, protozoa
Best for: Low TDS water with microbial contamination
UF (Ultrafiltration)
How it works: Membrane filtration that removes bacteria and suspended particles.
Removes: Bacteria, cysts, suspended solids
Best for: Low TDS water, removes physical impurities
Which One Should You Choose?
| Water Source | Best Technology |
|---|---|
| Municipal/Tap (High TDS) | RO + UV |
| Borewell (High TDS) | RO + UV + UF |
| Municipal (Low TDS) | UV + UF |
OXYLIFE Recommendation: We use advanced RO + UV + Ozone purification for maximum safety and purity.
