What is Waste Water Treatment?
Waste Water Treatment describes the processes used to make water more acceptable for a desired end-use. Waste Water Treatment can include water, for use in industrial processes or to allow discharge into the environment without adverse ecological impact. Waste Water Treatment processes may be physical, chemical or biological, slow sand filtration or activated sludge.

Also known as sewage treatment, waste water treatment is a process that filters the waste products from water used in municipal sewage systems. By filtering and purifying waste water, it is possible to maintain an ample and healthy supply of water to everyone living within the jurisdiction. Cities, towns, counties, and parishes normally have one or more purification plants operating around the clock to handle the task of cleansing waste water and effectively handling domestic sewage.
