There are four stages of the treatment process: Preliminary, Primary, Secondary and Tertiary. 1. Preliminary treatment process includes equalization, neutralization and possibly disinfection. 2. Primarystageismainlyphysicalwhichincludesscreening,sedimentation,floatationand flocculationtoremovedebris,undissolvedchemicalsandparticularmatters. 3. Secondary stage is a combination of physical/chemical separation and biological oxidation to reduce the organic load. 4. Tertiary stages are: to serve as polishing of effluent treatment. The methods are adsorption, ion exchange, chemical oxidation, hyperfiltration (reverse osmosis), electrochemical etc.
