Sludge separation − gravitation/sedimentation

Overview of sedimentation. Sedimentation (or gravitation or settlement) is the separation of particles from water on the basis of their weight.Particles heavier (more dense) than water will sink, while those less dense will rise. If the water is quiescent (i.e. still) or semi-quiescent then the particles can collect at the base or surface of the water, from where they …
