@mister.nour: Drinking water is usually produced from underground waters. Underground water iS extracted with the pumps in a water extraction plant. In the next step, an oxidising agent is added to the water to neutralise microorganisms and organic substances found in raw water. The chemicals added by the aerator sparger causes contaminants, that is, dead microorganisms, as well as organic and inorganic substances to coagulate and form small tiny flakes. Then, in the flocculator, these microflocs clump together and form larger flakes, or macroflocs. Due to their larger size, these can be filtered out of the water. Solid contaminants settle in the clarification basin, while the rest are removed by filtration. Filtration usually takes place in 3 phases, using a pebble filter, a sand filter and a carbon filter. Then, chlorine is added to the water in the disinfection basin to destroy pathogens and prevent re-infection as the water is conveyed through the pipes. The concentration of chlorine in drinking water is low, it does not cause health problems, while it prevents serious infections and epidemics. Clean water, which is suitable for human consumption, is stored in a cistern. From here it is pumped into the tank of the water tower, which provides constant water pressure and stores drinking water. The water tower provides water even when the pumps do not work due to a power outage.
