1st, we all been allocated to a big room which is the presentation room if im not mistaken. A brief introduction bout the all the plants and their characteristic. a job well done to the speaker which is also the technician of the plant. well spoken and loud as well. like music to our ears

Fatah and Joel concentrating to the presentation plus all other students
So there are 4 plant in one big treatment plant. each plant can cater about (i forgot guys) 16 - 20 MLD. MLD stands for millions liter per Day. so the source if from sungai sarawak kiri. and theres also 4 intake pipes, all located throughout the embankment of the river. The presenter also explain briefly about the process which i will explain to all of u later on :)
After the presentation, with the free mineral water for our "bekal" off we go on our little journey. 1st we headed to the laboratory where all the magic of chemical and biological process happens. i cant explain any further coz me myself didn't noe a clue wat they do here. coz im not tat interested with chemistry.ahahha. bummer.
The laboratory. Student observe while im camwhoring.
So after our little visit to the small yet poisoners room, where headed to the 1st part of the process, which is coagualation process. Coagulation is basically the time tat we add chemicals to make all the "dirty things" bigger. so the common chemicals being used here in Malaysia esp Kuching is ALUM and soda ash.
so after that is the flocculation process. this is where the big this earlier is attach to another big things bcomes bigger things.aahhaa. how 2 explain neh?ahaha. then the modified water is off to sedimentation tank.
Everywhere i turn theres always him.
next is sedimentation. so in sedimentation, the bigger particle is gradually sink to the bottom of the tank by gravity. the tank is probably 3 - 5 meter deep and a hell longer than my house. haha. the ingredient here is weights to particles + gravity + time = cleaner water. After tiz is filtration
Filtration is nothing more than to filter up foreign object by passing to a porous medium such as sand, gravel etc. so nothing more to explain here.
me and Joel taking picture above the filtration tank.
i didn't show u more picture but next in line is the addition of chlorination to kill or to reduce the number of bacteria lepak inside the water. then the water is pumped into the clearwater well before distribute it to end user. the end.haha
this is the end of our journey at Batu Kitang Water Treatment Plant. merchandise are given to appreciate the support and guidance by Mr. Dennis. off we goo
yeah it was cool
