| 1. | Initially, floating debris is removed by sequential filtration. |
| 2. | Then the grit (soil and small pebbles) are removed by sedimentation. |
| 3. | All solids that settle form the primary sludge, and the supernatant forms the effluent. |
| 4. | The effluent from the primary settling tank is discharged in rivers. |

| I: | A small part of the activated sludge is pumped back into the aeration tank to serve as the inoculum. |
| II: | Major part of the sludge is pumped into large tanks called anaerobic sludge digesters. |
