Separation technique used to separate mud and water without heating

Separation technique used to separate mud and water without heating:

Sedimentation-Decantation

Explanation:

1.The settling of the heavier particle at the bottom when the container is left undisturbed is called sedimentation.

In a mixture of Mud and water :

In this process the heavy mud particles settle at the bottom due to their high density .

2. Decantation : It is the process of pouring out the upper clear layer of the light particles.

In a mixture of Mud and water :

The water is lighter and form a clear layer over the settled mud particles. Hence by decantation the clear water is poured into a clean separate container

Thus mud remain in the bottom and the mixture is separated
