Explanation:
Sedimentation refers to the process during which particles suspended in water tend to settle out. This process is applicable in a wide range of contexts including geology, but in the context of waste-water treatment, it is of importance for the removal of suspended solids during the primary treatment of effluent.

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.
