groundwater treatment

Groundwater treatment involves removing contaminants from underground water to make it safe for drinking and other uses. The process typically starts with extracting water from aquifers, then passing it through various steps such as filtration to remove particles, chemical treatment to eliminate pollutants like bacteria, nitrates, or metals, and disinfection to kill any remaining germs. Sometimes, additional methods like aeration or advanced filtration are used for specific contaminants. The goal is to ensure the water meets health and safety standards before it reaches consumers, safeguarding public health while maintaining water quality.
