Abstract: Osmotic pressure plays a pivotal role across diverse domains including nature, daily life, industrial production, and scientific technology, exerting profound influences on biological processes and societal progress. This article elucidates the microscopic mechanisms underlying osmotic pressure, encompassing the differential movement of solvent molecules across semipermeable membranes, chemical potential gradients, and solvent permeation driven by colligative properties. The work provides detailed descriptions of the discovery and measurement methods for both osmotic pressure and reverse osmosis, while highlighting their applications in wastewater treatment, seawater desalination, gas separation, agricultural irrigation, and salinity gradient power generation.
