: Shipboard evaporators also have other problems: the resulting water needs pH adjustment and and treatment to kill bacteria, since the water is often distilled at only 60 deg. C. RO sounds great and I know you love yours....but, alas, there's a long trail of problems related to RO its supporters, and especially manufacturers and dealers, don't like to talk about. Too many people forget about the bacteria piled up against the membrane at high pressure. When that bacteria breaks under pressure, its toxins DO pass through the membrane making your RO love boat cruise much more interesting, but lots less fun, than you'd planned. If you put "reverse osmosis toxins" into Google, the first 9 pages of findings are all ads for RO systems, or "reports", disguised RO ads from someone hawking RO products. Like reading a boat magazine, there's never a discouraging word. If there are bad reports not from the industry, they have them well buried in bull**** Google finds. It's very hard to get unspoiled information from neutral sources..... -- ================================================== ========== Larry I've decided to worship Thor.
