Kind of pressure involved in water filtration

Usage examples of osmotic.

I thought it best to keep you sedated while the osmotic eel cauterized your wound.

The expanding cordon of rumor and report was like an osmotic membrane, sucking in the frightened and unsettled, the hopeful and the greedy.

And somehow, through some mysterious osmotic process, Vincent Reynolds allowed himself to be gently drawn into a different world.

The osmotic pressure inside our bacterium can reach 70 pounds per square inch, five times atmospheric pressure.

We calculate the overall cost to be less than five percent of conventional vacuum distillation or osmotic filter treatments.

Rain and hail could dilute the surface layers almost to fresh water density, at least by percentage salinity and osmotic factors, but more than an hour or so after an ordinary storm even surface water was likely to have too high a concentration of nasty ions like nickel or cadmium to be safely drinkable.

He was standing on his feet when Red Fred, alerted by the almost osmotic disappearance of Doc Lem Architrave, observed that the fuzz had made the scene after all.

Parchment Paper and Parchment Slates -- Double and Triple Osmotic Parchment -- Utilising Waste Parchment Paper -- Parchmented Linen and Cotton -- Parchment Millboard -- Imitation Horn and Ivory from Parchment Paper -- Imitation Parchment Paper -- Artificial Parchment -- Testing the Sulphuric Acid.

I guess you know that his studies in hybridism and his four-volume work, Osmotic Irregularities among the Sarraceniaceous Plants, are classics.

He's an innocent little blood cell lysed by unfair osmotic conditions.

By employing dilute alcohol, the mobility of the inorganic ions is restricted and the osmotic pressure raised-a desirable effect, of course.

Since they evolved on such a hot planet, they have a water-regulating physiology, reacting to osmotic pressure.

Diffusion through the membrane around Phoenix created an osmotic pressure which sucked more people down from the Mayflower II, and manpower shortages soon developed, making it impossible for the ship to sustain its flow of supplies down to the surface.

So there was a good deal of membrane damage through osmotic pressure.

We calculate the overall cost to be less than five percent of conventional vacuum distillation or osmotic filter treatments.
