This process includes screening and grit removal to protect downstream equipment and prevent clogging. Primary Treatment: In the primary treatment stage, the wastewater flows into large sedimentation tanks, called primary clarifiers. In these tanks, the flow velocity is reduced, allowing heavier solids and organic matter to settle a...
