In reverse osmosis, water molecules are forced to move from a region of high solute concentration to a region of low solute concentration through a semipermeable membrane by applying an external pressure. The osmotic pressure of the feed solution increases with the concentration of dissolved solids and is independent of the applied pressure. Therefore, to overcome the osmotic pressure and achieve reverse osmosis, a significant amount of pressure needs to be applied, making it an energy-intensive process.
