SEDIMENTATION

Sedimentation 1 Sedimentation . Sedimentation, or clarification, is the processes of letting suspended material settle by gravity. Suspended material may be particles, such as clay or silts, originally present in the source water. Suspended material or floc is typically created from materials in the water and chemicals used in
