Sedimentation is the tendency for particles in suspension to settle out of the fluid in which they are entrained and come to rest against a barrier. This is due to their motion through the fluid in response to the forces acting on them: these forces can be due to gravity, centrifugal acceleration, or electromagnetism.

Answer:
Sedimentation
Explanation:
This is a process of settling down of heavier , insoluble components in a mixture such as muddy water. Let the mixture sit down for some time, you will see the heavier particles will settle down in the jar. If the fine particles are there, it will take a long time to settle down. in this case, we can use alum, this can make the fine particles heavy and speed up sedimentation.
