As you know Reverse osmosis (RO) is a filtration method that removes many types of large molecules and ions from solutions by applying pressure to the solution when it is on one side of a selective membrane.this method already use for Drinking water purification also this method use for make drinkable water from sea water.
I want to know really this is possible to extraction iodine and bromine from sea water by this method?
