Vertical Sedimentation Tank Diagram - Engineering Schematic for Water Treatment Systems #303635 (License: Personal Use)

This vintage engineering illustration depicts a vertical sedimentation tank used in water treatment, where influent enters via pipe B, flows downward through the chamber, and clarified water exits at outlet C near the top. Settled solids accumulate and are discharged through opening A at the base. Dimensions a, b, and c indicate critical vertical zones for hydraulic retention and particle settling.

Used in educational resources, engineering textbooks, and wastewater treatment documentation to explain sedimentation principles; targets students, civil engineers, and plant designers seeking foundational process diagrams.
