  2. Sedimentation (water treatment) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedimentation_(water...

    Sedimentation (water treatment) The physical process of sedimentation (the act of depositing sediment) has applications in water treatment, whereby gravity acts to remove suspended solids from water. [1] Solid particles entrained by the turbulence of moving water may be removed naturally by sedimentation in the still water of lakes and oceans.

  3. Dissolved air flotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissolved_air_flotation

    Dissolved air flotation (DAF) is a water treatment process that clarifies wastewaters (or other waters) by the removal of suspended matter such as oil or solids. The removal is achieved by dissolving air in the water or wastewater under pressure and then releasing the air at atmospheric pressure in a flotation tank basin. The released air forms ...

  4. Water purification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_purification

    Widely varied techniques are available to remove contaminants like fine solids, micro-organisms and some dissolved inorganic and organic materials, or environmental persistent pharmaceutical pollutants. The choice of method will depend on the quality of the water being treated, the cost of the treatment process and the quality standards ...

  5. Secondary treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_treatment

    Secondary treatment. This small secondary clarifier at a rural sewage treatment plant is a typical phase separation mechanism to remove biological solids formed in a suspended growth or fixed-film bioreactor. Secondary treatment (mostly biological wastewater treatment) is the removal of biodegradable organic matter (in solution or suspension ...

  6. Reverse osmosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_osmosis

    Reverse osmosis (RO) is a water purification process that uses a semi-permeable membrane to separate water molecules from other substances. RO applies pressure to overcome osmotic pressure that favors even distributions. RO can remove dissolved or suspended chemical species as well as biological substances (principally bacteria), and is used in ...

  7. Clarifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarifier

    Clarifiers are settling tanks built with mechanical means for continuous removal of solids being deposited by sedimentation. [1] A clarifier is generally used to remove solid particulates or suspended solids from liquid for clarification and/or thickening. Inside the clarifier, solid contaminants will settle down to the bottom of the tank where ...

  8. Water treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_treatment

    Dissolved air flotation (Degasification) is the process of removing dissolved gases from a solution. Henry's law states that the amount of dissolved gas in a liquid is proportionate to the partial pressure of the gas. Degasification is a low-cost method of removing carbon dioxide gas from waste water that raises the pH of the water by removing ...

  9. Sedimentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedimentation

    Settling basins are ponds constructed for the purpose of removing entrained solids by sedimentation. [21] Clarifiers are tanks built with mechanical means for continuous removal of solids being deposited by sedimentation; [22] however, clarification does not remove dissolved solids. [23]
