REACTION PAPER
“Advanced Water Treatment”
Through this seminar, the knowledge of the students were enrich on the proper water
treatment processes. The information gathered here is vital as it provides a culture of awareness to
everyone on how wastewater is disposed. Wastewater comes from everywhere; from our
residences to our workplaces, even public places. Filipinos as we are, have been known to be
hygienic yet we know little of what happens when our used water is flushed to the drain until it is
carried off to treatment plants. It is important that as environmental and sanitary engineering
students and concerned citizens, we should have an idea on how the whole process works and how
beneficial and detrimental it is to the people and to our environment.
Environmental engineering helps improve people’s way of life and the world as a whole.
Essentially, it improves processes in the environment that are very fundamental to life. One area
of focus is advanced water treatment processes, which help streamline how water is obtained and
used. It is necessary to treat water because the declining quality of fresh water sources mainly due
to pollution leads to shortage in the freshwater supply. Freshwater shortages increase the risk of
public health problems, reduction in food production, and inhibition of industrial production
expansion. All these problems threaten the environment.
