Definition of sedimentation in English English dictionary: The separation of a suspension of solid particles into a concentrated slurry and a supernatant liquid, either to concentrate the solid or to clarify the liquid; Deposition of sediment; A treatment process which allows sediment to settle out of water or wastewater; {i} accumulation of deposits, accumulation of sediment; A large scale water treatment process where heavy solids settle to the bottom of the treatment tank by gravity after flocculation, the process by which solids suspended in water are allowed to settle to the bottom of a basin or container; The process of suspended solid particles settling out (going to the bottom of the vessel) in water; the process whereby soil particles (sediment) settle to the bottom of a waterway; Letting solids settle out of wastewater by gravity during treatment; the process of subsidence and deposition by gravity of suspended matter carried in water; usually the result of the reduction of water velocity below the point at which it can transport the material in suspended form; The process of deposition of sediment, especially by mechanical means from a state of suspension in air or water; process in which suspended particles settle to the bottom; The process where solids suspended in water settle to the bottom of a basin; The accumulation of earthy matter (soil and mineral particles) washed into a river or other water body, normally by erosion, which settles on the bottom Another use of the word is as a hazardous waste physical treatment method that separates and removes suspended particles that are heavier than the liquid in which they are present by gravitational settling; the deposition of suspended matter carried by water, wastewater, or other liquids, by gravity It is usually accomplished by reducing the velocity of the liquid below the point at which it can transport the suspended material Also called settling; The process by which particles in water settle at the bottom of a basin or container; Formation of sediment A sediment is a natural deposit created by the action of dynamic external agents such as water, wind and ice; the phenomenon of sediment or gravel accumulating; Soil particles suspended in stormwater that can settle in stream beds and disrupt the natural flow of the stream; A water treatment process in which solid particles settle out of the water being treated in a large clarifier or sedimentation basin; treatment of water by storing it for a few hours so that the biggest particles can settle to the bottom; The deposition or settling of soil particles suspended in water SEEDBED -Area prepared to receive seeds, such as an area cleared of plants and duff, so that natural seed fall can establish a new forest SEEDLING - (a) A tree, usually less than 2 inches diameter at breast height, that has grown from a seed rather than from a sprout (b) A nursery-grown tree that has not been transplanted in the nursery; The deposition of sediment from a state of suspension in water or air; A large scale water treatment process where heavy solids settle out to the bottom of the treatment tank after flocculation; Sedimentation is the process of a material sinking to the bottom of a liquid; the deposition of the material of which sedimentary rocks are formed; The deposition or settling of soil particles suspended in water; Sedimentation is the removal, transport, and deposition of detached sediment particles by wind or water; when soil particles (sediment) settles to the bottom of a waterway; the natural process by which small pieces of rock, earth etc settle at the bottom of the sea etc and form a solid layer. In geology, the process of deposition of a solid material from a state of suspension or solution in a fluid (usually air or water). Broadly defined it also includes deposits from glacial ice and materials collected under the effect of gravity alone, as in talus deposits, or accumulations of rock debris at the base of cliffs; The act of depositing a sediment; specifically Geol; The gravity settling, and thus removal, of materials more dense than the suspending fluid
sedimentation rate: {i} blood test carried out to see if there is an inflammation in the body

sediment: Sediment is solid material that settles at the bottom of a liquid, especially earth and pieces of rock that have been carried along and then left somewhere by water, ice, or wind. Many organisms that die in the sea are soon buried by sediment. solid substances that settle at the bottom of a liquid (sedimentum, from sedere )
sediment: Any solid material that has settled out of a state of suspension in liquid
sediment: [n] loose mineral or organic matter that has been deposited or laid down by water, wind, or ice Sediment may become cemented into sedimentary rock over time
sediment: {i} solid matter which settles at the bottom of a liquid; material deposited by ice or wind or water (Geology)
sediment: Solid material that has settled down from a state of suspension in a liquid; solid fragmental material transported and deposited by wind, water, or ice, chemically precipitated from solution, or secreted by organisms, and that forms in layers in loose unconsolidated form
sediment: (a) Solid fragmental material that originates from weathering of rocks (b) Strictly, solid material that has settled down from a state of suspension in a liquid
sediment: Fine grains of solid material suspended in water or settled out of water to be deposited on land
sediment: Particles, derived from rocks or biological materials, that have been transported by a fluid or other natural process, and are suspended or settled in water
sediment: Solid, fragmental material or mass of such material originating from the weathering of rocks, e g , sand, gravel, mud, alluvium
sediment: (1) Loose, fragments of ROCKS, MINERALS or organic material which are transported from their source for varying distances and deposited by air, wind, ice and water Other sediments are precipitated from the overlying water or form chemically, in place Sediment includes all the UNCONSOLIDATED materials on the sea floor (2) (SMP) The fine grained material deposited by water or wind
