Water Treatment Plant

About Water Treatment Plant

A water treatment plant is a facility that treats water to make it safe to drink. The treatment process removes pollutants from the water, such as bacteria, viruses, chemicals, and sediments. The specific treatment processes used at a water treatment plant will vary depending on the source of the water and the desired level of treatment. This uses gentle stirring to cause the clumps of particles to form larger clumps, called flocs. Water treatment plants are an essential part of our infrastructure and help to protect our health. By removing pollutants from water, these facilities help to keep our water safe to drink.
