Think of it as nature's way of extreme water dieting鈥攐nly the purest water molecules get to pass through the filter, leaving all the nasty stuff behind.
You push water through a filter, and it removes all the junk. Easy peasy!
Reverse osmosis filters work by pushing water through a semi-permeable membrane to remove impurities and contaminants. Imagine trying to squeeze through a very tight doorway鈥攐nly the water molecules get through while the larger molecules (like salts and impurities) are left behind.
They use pressure to force water through a special membrane that blocks contaminants. It's like sieving flour but on a microscopic level.
