A1. In distillation you convert water into steam and then condense the steam back into water. Almost (but not quite absolutely) all impurities are left behind.

In filtration the separation is just a function of pore size, there's nothing to keep foreign objects out of the result except sheer size.

Answ2. A modern de-salination plant relies on reverse osmotic pressure to produce potable water from sea water.
