The Water Treatment Process The water treatment process begins with pump stations drawing in raw water from a variety of lakes, streams, and underground aquifers. The raw water is transported to a water treatment center where the larger sediment and particles are removed with the use of chemicals known as coagulants. These coagulants act like magnets to pull in these …
