FILTRATION: EFFECT OF SAND PARTICLES ARRANGEMENT ON WATER QUALITY

Water filtration is aprocess for separating suspended or colloidal impurities from water by passage through aporous medium, usually aband of sand or others. Water fills the pores (open spaces) between the sand particles and the impurities are left behind either clogged in the open spaces or attac...
