Title: The Processes Involved in Water Purification Description: Drinking Water Treatment Plants (DWTPs) are designed to subject raw water to a series of processes aimed at eliminating substances that may be harmful for human consumption. This document introduces the phases and technological processes involved in water purification at the plant and its subsequent control in the distribution network, emphasizing the maintenance of the quality standards of the supplied water, in accordance with the regulations in force in each country. López Jiménez, PA.; Pérez Sánchez, M. (2018). The processes involved in water purification. https://riunet.upv.es/handle/10251/10... DER Automatic description: This video presents the processes involved in water purification through drinking water treatment plants. It explains how raw water is found in surface or groundwater and cannot be consumed without prior treatment. This video describes the phases and processes involved in water purification, including intake, treatment at the plant, coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation, filtration, and disinfection. It also addresses the importance of storing and distributing treated water to ensure its quality up to the point of consumption. In summary, it demonstrates how drinking water treatment plants utilize physical, chemical, and other technologies to supply quality water at appropriate volumes and pressures, while maintaining contaminant levels within regulatory limits.
