City Supply Drinking Water Treatment

The document describes the water treatment process. It involves coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation, filtration, and disinfection of raw water. Coagulants are added to raw water to attract suspended particles. The particles collide and form flocs during flocculation. Flocs are removed during sedimentation. Filters further purify the water by removing sediments. Disinfection kills any remaining microorganisms making the water safe for home consumption and storage.
