What is the principle of separation by sedimentation?

  • 1

Sedimentation separates particles from a liquid by allowing gravity to pull heavier particles down to the bottom. The clearer liquid can then be decanted or removed from above the settled particles.

  1. Sedimentation is a process where a mixture is left undisturbed, allowing gravity to cause denser particles to settle at the bottom of the container. Over time, the heavier particles accumulate at the bottom, forming a sediment, while the clearer liquid remains on top. This method is used in various applications, including water treatment and preparing sediments for further analysis or processing.
