A cheap and simple method for treating water from any source would be necessary to provide for people in developing countries.\nThe treatment facility outlined in the excel file and detailed in the provided CAD drawings is relatively inexpensive yet very effective for removing both inorganic and organic contaminants. It should be noted that the actual design has not been tested, however the theory of settling and slow sand filtration is well tested and used throughout the world.","Page image":"File:Slow sand filter.pdf","Page is part of":"MECH425 Engineering for Sustainable Development","Page keywords":"Water treatment, sanitation, Water, water filtration, concrete, clay, soil, Moringa oleifera seed extract, fly ash, soda ash, Water and sanitation for developing countries","Page language":"en","Page license":"CC-BY-SA-3.0","Page title":"Mid Scale Community Water Treatment Facility","Page views":"155","Page year":"Friday, 01-Jan-10 00:00:00 UTC","Project authors":"User:5dt15","Project coordinates":"44.305413888889, -76.428377777778","Project location":"Kingston, Canada","Project status":"Designed","Project thumb":"https://www.appropedia.org/w/images/thumb/d/d8/Slow_sand_filter.pdf/page1-330px-Slow_sand_filter.pdf.jpg","Modification date":"Friday, 28-Nov-25 13:28:09 UTC"}
