BASIC WATER TYPES
(a)
The process of improving water quality to make it suitable for consumption, industrial use, or returning to the environment

after coagulation, the water is mixed, causing the small particles to form large clumps called flocs, This makes it easier to remove them.
(a)
To separate and remove the heavy flocs from the water. The water flows into large sedimentation fanks, where the flocs settle to the bottom due to gravity. The clear water at the top of the tank is then moved d to the next stage, while the sludge (settled flocs) is removed and 1 treated separately.
(a)
To remove smaller particles and impurities. Water passes through a series of filters made of layers of sand, gravel, and sometimes activated charcoal. These filters trap small particles, bacteria, and other impurities that were not removed during sedimentation.
