Water treatment plant

  • Steps in the Water Purification Station :

    1. Screening : Water passes through grates that get progressively smaller in order to remove waste particles.

       

    1. Decantation : In a decanting basin, sand falls to the bottom because it’s heavier than the water. Oil rises to the surface since it’s lighter.


     

    1. In this basin, bacteria eat most of the microbes in the water.


     

    1. The water is released back into nature.


     

    Be careful! Don’t drink this water ; it is not potable.
