Decantation is a process to separate mixtures by removing a liquid layer that is free of a precipitate. The purpose may be to obtain a decant (liquid free from particulates) or to recover the precipitate.
Decantation is a process for the separation of mixtures, by removing a layer of liquid, generally one from which a precipitate has settled. The purpose may be either to produce a clean decant, or to remove undesired liquid from the precipitate (or other layers).
Another method is to allow two immiscible liquids to separate and the lighter liquid is poured or siphoned off. A common example is decantation of oil and vinegar. When a mixture of the two liquids is allowed to settle, the oil will float on top of the water so the two components may be separated

The process of pouring out clean water (which was collected during the process of sedimentation) without disturbing the sediments (impurities) is called decantation.
