You need to copy out these steps into your book.

  1. Chemical such as aluminium sulfate are added to cause flocculation (clumping together) of fine grained suspended particles (4)

  2. Large insoluble impurities are removed by screens (2)

  3. Finally pH is tested and water is neutralised if needed. (7)

  4. Bacterial and or viruses are killed using - chlorine / UV light /ozone (6)

  5. Smaller insoluble impurities sediment out of the water (3)

  6. Firstly water is collected in a reservoir (1)

  7. Remaining insoluble material is removed by filtration using gravel and sand (5)
