The main treatment process encompasses the retention of particles by the filter material and cleaning processes due to biological activity in the biofilm on the sand or gravel. After passing the filter media, the treated ...
view more2023911 · Rapid Sand Filter. Rapid sand filtration is a water treatment process that involves passing water through a bed of granular filter media, typically sand, to remove suspended particles, colloids, and impurities. This process is designed to improve water quality by physically trapping and removing particles from the water, resulting in cleaner ...
