Reverse Osmosis

Japanese: 逆浸透
Reverse Osmosis
When normal osmosis occurs across a semipermeable membrane, a large pressure is applied to the side to which the solvent is moving, causing the solvent to move in the opposite direction to the side with a lower concentration of solute. This is used in desalinating seawater and concentrating juice.
