Questão 4
Questão
There are 3 main stages in water purification:
1- [blank_start]SEDIMENTATION[blank_end] = chemicals are added to make [blank_start]solid particles[blank_end] and bacteria settle out
2- [blank_start]FILTRATION[blank_end] = of very [blank_start]fine particles[blank_end] - a layer of sand on gravel [blank_start]filters out[blank_end] the remaining fine particles; some types of [blank_start]sand filter[blank_end] also remove microbes.
3- [blank_start]CHLORINATION[blank_end] = chlorine is added to [blank_start]kill[blank_end] microbes.
Responda
SEDIMENTATION
FILTRATION
