Water treatment facility

This field trip was very interesting to me because I got to see where all the filthy water goes and how they clean it and redistribute it back out.  We first started out talking about where all of the main systems were in the plant and talking about their purpose of cleaning the water.  The really disgusting part of the field trip was looking at the incoming water that was going into the plant.  It was all dirty and had specs of waste  in it and how after the water goes threw the plant how clean it gets after the process it goes threw.  Then we went to places where the water was getting cleaned and the first one we went into was nasty the water was dark and it smelled like rotten eggs(that was how the water came into the plant). Then we went to the next place and this one stopped all of the nasty waste that was in the water to begin with.  What was really interesting about this one was that it went down ten feet and that if you fell in you would get sucked in and only had a couple of seconds to get help.  We then went to where the clean water was being cycled through.  This field trip was very interesting to see what the water looked liked before it got cleaned and how it looked after it was clean.  The difference was huge and the facility was really nice and I learned a lot from this trip.
