It runs the water through a standard sewage treatment plant, where it comes out clean. They than send it through a system of pipes, filters and tanks, where it undergoes a purification process.]]> 2019-04-26 17:16:46 UTC https://padlet.com/healalic1_2/cvl5pd62btbo/wish/354537306 https://padlet.com/healalic1_2/cvl5pd62btbo/wish/354538733 Some contaminants that need to be removed from wastewater include salt, prescription drugs, unwanted chemicals, bacteria, viruses and any other living contaminants.]]> 2019-04-26 17:20:16 UTC https://padlet.com/healalic1_2/cvl5pd62btbo/wish/354538733 they filter the sewage water because it contains salt, prescription drugs, chemicals and other bacterias and unwanted virus's https://padlet.com/healalic1_2/cvl5pd62btbo/wish/354538875 2019-04-26 17:20:35 UTC https://padlet.com/healalic1_2/cvl5pd62btbo/wish/354538875 Yes. https://padlet.com/healalic1_2/cvl5pd62btbo/wish/354539215 After learning about the processed we have all come to a conclusion that we would drink the purified water. We learned that after the process, the water is so pure that they have to add minerals to add flavor to the water. It seems safe and a great way to reuse water instead of wasting it.]]> 2019-04-26 17:21:24 UTC https://padlet.com/healalic1_2/cvl5pd62btbo/wish/354539215 https://padlet.com/healalic1_2/cvl5pd62btbo/wish/354539616 Yes]]> 2019-04-26 17:22:21 UTC https://padlet.com/healalic1_2/cvl5pd62btbo/wish/354539616 they use a ultraviolet light and hydrogen peroxide and they add minerals https://padlet.com/healalic1_2/cvl5pd62btbo/wish/354539694 2019-04-26 17:22:34 UTC https://padlet.com/healalic1_2/cvl5pd62btbo/wish/354539694 yes https://padlet.com/healalic1_2/cvl5pd62btbo/wish/354540166 2019-04-26 17:23:53 UTC https://padlet.com/healalic1_2/cvl5pd62btbo/wish/354540166 As sewage enters a plant for treatment, it flowsthrough a screen, which removes large floatingobjects such as rags and sticks that might clogpipes or damage equipment. After sewage hasbeen screened, it passes into a grit chamber, wherecinders, sand, and small stones settle to the bottom.A grit chamber is particularly important in communities with combined sewer systems where sand orgravel may wash into sewers along with stormwater.
