  • Radioactivity (e.g., Uranium, Radon)

  • Taste and Odor compounds (often related to chlorine, organics, or sulfur)

Additional Contaminants AQUAPRO RO system can remove:

  • Protozoa: While "Cysts" covers some, RO is highly effective against all protozoa.

  • Colloidal Matter: Very tiny particles suspended in water that don't settle easily.

  • Dyes: Many industrial dyes are effectively rejected.

  • Silt

  • Rust

  • Sediment (specifically fine particles that get past pre-filters)

  • Salts (general dissolved salts): This is a primary function of RO for desalination.
