Demineralized water


Explanation:
"Agua permeada" is a water that has low minerals. Distillation removes all minerals from water, and the membrane methods of reverse osmosis and nanofiltration remove most to all minerals. This results in demineralized water which is not considered ideal drinking water. "Agua permeada" has industrial uses and it is also used in water irrigation applications.
