摘要
A small commercial POE (point of entry) reverse osmosis (RO) equipment was tested for removing simultaneously water radioactivity and salinity from a bedrock water in a private household. The functioning of this equipment was monitored over an eight month period. The RO equipment was able to remove most of the elements almost completely. The reduction of main water constituents was above 94%, except for gaseous radon.
