Which of the following is the treatment of water pollution? (1) Bag house filter (2) Windrow composting (3) Venturi scrubber (4) Reverse Osmosis

1 Answer

Answer :

(4) Reverse Osmosis Explanation: Reverse osmosis (RO) is a water purification technology that uses a semipermeable membrane to remove ions, molecules, and larger particles from drinking water. It can remove many types of dissolved and suspended species from water, including bacteria, and is used in both industrial processes and the production of potable water. It is most commonly known for its use in drinking water purification form.
