Potable water made from surface water is becoming more polluted. It contains what ever the rainwater comes in contact with that is soluble. Normal potable water treatment produces clean water from surface water however this water still contains a lot of contaminants. RO technology will remove a significant amount if not all of these organic compounds ensuring pesticides, hormones & other chemicals like aluminum silicates are removed. The link between health & diseases has been linked to water however if the problem is accumulative over a longer period it is not linked to water & possibly it should. I would rather drink water that contains no organics or colloids & I guess when people find out how much rubbish is still in the water after treatment there will be a demand for all surface water potable water system to employ RO.
