Water Treatment

Subject: Chemistry

Book: General Chemistry

Water treatment processes remove contaminants to provide safe drinking water and reduce pollution. Steps include coagulation/flocculation, sedimentation, filtration, and disinfection (e.g., chlorination, UV). Advanced treatments (reverse osmosis, activated carbon, advanced oxidation) target specific pollutants. Chemistry underpins selecting appropriate methods, ensuring public health, and preserving aquatic ecosystems.
