    The document summarizes the key steps in water treatment processes: intake, sedimentation, coagulation, disinfection, filtration, and storage. Sedimentation removes suspended materials using gravity in tanks. Coagulation uses chemicals like alum to remove particles, while disinfection with chlorine eliminates microorganisms. Filtration then removes remaining particles and the treated water is stored in reservoirs for distribution. The overall goal is to remove impurities and make water potable for human consumption.

    INTRODUCTION
    • Water treatment is the process of removing
    un-healthy suspended materials from the
    water.
    • There are many steps to treat the water.
    • The water is made potable using the
    treatment of water.

    3
    Need For Water Treatment
    • The main source of water is rain. In the
    process of reaching the ground , the water is
    mixed with dirt, dust and chemical impurities.
    we need to remove the impurities to consume
    the water for various purposes, mainly for
    drinking water.

    4
    STEPS INVOLVED IN WATER
    TREATMENT
    1. Sedimentation
    2. Coagulation
    3. Filtration
    4. Disinfection
    5. Storage of water in Reservoirs

    5
    1. SEDIMENTATION
    • Sedimentation is the process of removing
    suspended material from water using the
    Sedimentation tanks.
    • Stoke ‘s law involved in sedimentation, according
    to this law the gravity force's exceeds the
    resistant forces of water to the suspended
    spherical particles, the suspended particles
    settles down at the bottom of the tank.
    • The settled material is at bottom used for Crops
    in Forming for manure.
    6
    2.COAGULATION
    • Coagulation is the process of adding
    coagulants to the water.
    • The flocculation is done to remove the settled
    particles by coagulation process.
    • This is affected by pH of water and
    characteristics of water.
    • Alum is commonly used in coagulation

    7
    3.DISINFECTION
    • Disinfection is removing harmful micro-organism
    in the water .
    • There are many methods of disinfection, they are,
    1. Using Ozone
    2. Using chlorine
    3. Using boiling process
    4. Using bleaching powder
    • Commonly we use Chlorine gas for disinfection.
    • The potable range of water is 0.5 ppm.
    • At reservoir we use 2.0 ppm chlorine amount.
    8
    4. FILTRATION
    • This is the process of removing suspended
    particles remaining after sedimentation and
    coagulation by using Filters.
    • There are two types of filters , they are
    1. Slow sand filtration
    2. Rapid gravity filter
    • We commonly use the rapid gravity filters for
    filtration, the main reason is its speed of
    filtration and economy.
    9
    5.RESERVOIR FOR STORAGE
    • There are some distribution reservoirs for storage
    and distribution of water.
    • Commonly we add chlorine at reservoir , using
    chlorinating chambers only.
    • The water is stored and then supplied by the
    pipes.
    • There are two types of tanks , they are
    1. Ground level service reservoirs
    2. Over head tank

    10
    CONCLUSION
    • The treatment of water is very important for
    the health of the people. Because, the
    resonance of unhealthy material from water is
    made potable, thus the human beings can
    consume it.
