What is Sedimentation ?
raninemisha6682:
Sedimentation is the process of allowing particles in suspension in water to settle out of the suspension under the effect of gravity. The particles that settle out from the suspension become sediment, and in water treatment is known as sludge
For example, sand and silt can be carried in suspension in river water and on reaching the sea bed deposited by sedimentation; if buried, they may eventually become sandstone and siltstone (sedimentary rocks) through lithification. ... Desert sand dunes and loess are examples of aeolian transport and deposition.
Thank you so much mate ☺♥️

Answer:
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 is the dirt (soil) that goes into water and eventually settles
down. It is the process of the soil going into the water. Total suspended
solids is how sediment is measured while suspended in water.
