Beyond chlorination, other disinfectants such as ozone and ultraviolet (UV) light have also gained popularity in chemical water treatment. Ozone, a more potent oxidizing agent than chlorine, can break down organic pollutants and disinfection byproducts. Its short lifespan in water means it must be generated on-site, but it offers an effective alternative, especially in water with high organic load. Meanwhile, UV treatment involves exposing water to UV light, which disrupts the DNA of pathogens, rendering them inactive. This method does not introduce any chemicals into the water, making it a preferred option for many purification processes.
chemical treatment for water purification

One of the primary applications of chemical treatment systems is in wastewater treatment. Industrial facilities often generate wastewater laden with contaminants, including heavy metals, organic compounds, and pathogens. Chemical treatment can involve several processes, such as coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation, and disinfection. Coagulation is the process in which chemicals, like alum, are added to the wastewater to help particles clump together into larger aggregates, known as flocs. Once these flocs are formed, they can be removed from the water through sedimentation, where they settle to the bottom of a tank. This step is crucial for reducing suspended solids and turbidity in the water.
