Why is alum added to purify water ?

Answer Posted / guest

On allowing water to stand in big tanks, the suspended water
subsides at the bottom. The suspended impurities are
immediately coagulated by addition of alum. The precipitate
settles at the bottom dragging bacteria and other tiny
particles with it.
