RODI waste water

[Jimbo662]

I'm assuming it is but wanted to make sure just in case. Is RODI waste water ok to drink?

 

[bjohanson1234]

I personally wouldn't. During the process of reverse osmosis, all the impurities are concentrated in the waste water. It might make concentrations of nasty stuff higher than what should be consumed.

Thx..

but you can use it for things like watering plants

It will have TDS about 20% higher than the feedwater - so the answer to your question really depends upon the quality of your feedwater.

We have customers whose waste water is lower in TDS than other customers feedwater...

You could probably use it for a planted tank too. If your in the market for 2 tanks.

I'm actually seriously considering converting my 125g planted tank :sfish:

How long is it safe to store both RODI water and salt water?

I've stored it for several weeks.
