Ambient Atmospheric Water Vapour Water vapour in the air.
Bimetal (n) material made by bonding together sheets of two different metals
Chlorine-free Innovative "Point of Consumption" purification by powerful ultraviolet irradiation eliminate the need for humans to consume unnecessary chlorine in their drinking water
Condensate atmospheric moisture that has condensed
Electrostatic When two objects in each other's vicinity have different electrical charges, an electrostatic field exists between them. An electrostatic field also forms around any single object that is electrically charged with respect to its environment. An object is negatively charged (-) if it has an excess of electrons relative to its surroundings. An object is positively charged (+) if it is deficient in electrons with respect to its surroundings.
Humidity In hygrometrical reports, complete saturation of the air with moisture is designated by a humidity level of 100, and partial saturation is noted by smaller numbers
Potable Water Water that is safe to drink.
Reverse Osmosis Reverse Osmosis is the reversal of the natural flow of Osmosis. In a water purification system, the goal is to extract pure water from salty or contaminated water. By applying pressure on the contaminated side, the semi-permeable membrane screens out the impurities, but lets water molecules pass through.
Ultra-filtration Membrane is a specially manufactured hollow-fibre membrane module, with a special configuration to achieve optimal results tailored to difficult waters. The ultra-filtration membrane is based on a nominal pore size of approximately 0.01 µm, and is made of modified Polyethersulfone (PES), a hydrophilic, chemically stable polymer capable of withstanding aggressive environments often present in water and fluid treatment situations. With a double-skinned design, separation layers on both sides of the fibre enable the Kristal300™ to be operated in either configuration (outside-in or inside-out), enabling great flexibility in its applications.
