∙ 13y agoI'm not a water treatment expert but I can offer some advice that might guide towards the answer you seek:
- Primary water is potable (or drinkable) water
- Secondary water is unacceptable for direct consumption (ie high carbonates) but does not contain pathogens or toxins.
- Tertiary water is water from toilets, from industrial processes and waste water from institutions such hospitals and laboratories. This quality of water can technically be broken into two categories, the first is water that can be reclaimed as it moves through the ecosystem (this would be human and animal organic wastes) and secondly water which requires special treatment to be safe for re-use (this would be toxins, heavy metals, etc)
As far as I know there are different types of treatments for each of the water levels. I hope this helps you figure it out!
Cheers

What are the advanced waste water treatment processes?
The three stages of sewage treatment are primary, secondary, and tertiary treatment. Primary treatment involves physical processes to remove large solids and debris. Secondary treatment uses biological processes to break down organic matter. Tertiary treatment involves advanced processes to remove any remaining contaminants before the treated water is released back into the environment.

What program does reducing reusing recycling water?
its multistep procedure, primary treatment (Bar screens, Grit chamber, Primary clarification), secondary treatment (Aeration Basins, Final Clarifiers) and additional purification is called tertiary or advanced treatment (Aeration Basins, Anaerobic Digester).
What are the steps in recycled water?
Treatment of wastewater is actually a remarkably simple process that utilizes very basic physical, biological, and chemical principles to remove contaminants from water. Use of mechanical or physical systems to treat wastewater is generally referred to as primary treatment, and use of biological processes to provide further treatment is referred to as secondary treatment. Advanced secondary treatment usually involves applying chemical systems in addition to biological ones, such as injecting chlorine to disinfect the water. In most of the United States, wastewater receives both primary and secondary treatment. Tertiary treatment methods are sometimes used after primary and secondary treatment to remove traces of chemicals and dissolved solids. Tertiary treatment is expensive and not widely practiced except where necessary to remove industrial contaminants.
What is an adjunct treatment?
An adjunct treatment is an additional treatment used for increasing the efficacy or safety of a primary treatment.
