Sedimentation: Insoluble particles settle down at the bottom and the process is called sedimentation. For example; muddy water contains soil and sand in water. Soil and sand; being insoluble in water; settle down at bottom if water is allowed to stand for some time.
Decantation: This process is used after sedimentation. The upper layer; which contains water is slowly poured out from the container. It leaves the sediment behind.
Filtration: This method is used for separating fine insoluble solid particles from the liquid. In this process, the mixture is passed through a filter. The solid particles do not pass through the filter and clear liquid is collected.
