On
13th December (Friday) 2013, students of class III, IV and V went on
a field trip to a water purification plant. This was a trip to educate children
about various steps of purifying water to make it suitable for drinking.
The
plant mainly uses reverse osmosis technique to remove impurities from water. It
also uses multiple other methods like ion exchange system to remove calcium and magnesium from water and demineralisation process to remove dissolved
impurities.
This
trip helped students to get a deep insight of different impurities present in
water and the ways to remove them. It was an educational and wonderful trip for the students of Orchids – The International School.
