As, we know that Alum increases the rate of sedimentation.
Alum (aluminum sulfate) is added to the water to destabilize natural fine particulate matter suspended in water.
This process in known as coagulation.
The addition of alum causes these particles and colloids to clump together to form heavier particles which will settle in water.
