The document describes an experiment to treat waste water. The objectives are to transform waste water into drinking water. The method involves aeration, coagulation, sedimentation, filtration, and disinfection. Untreated waste water is murky with particles and smells bad. After treatment, the water is less murky with no particles or foam, but it is still not considered safe for drinking. The results are recorded, noting the appearance of the water after each step and chlorine levels during disinfection. In conclusion, treatment improved the appearance but the water is still not deemed safe to drink.

A375 Example Taste the taste of the Lord, the taste of the Lord The taste of...franktsao4
It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

If the question is branch specific, Add a Note to indicate what branch is to answer the question.
- You can add a note in the Unanswered Queues Page. If you are in a branch library, remember
to look at this page to see if questions are directed to you by seeing if any notes have been
added to unanswered questions. Take a look below to see how to add a note.
In Unanswered Queues, Click on Add a Note, on the right hand side of the question, for questions
that a branch should answer.
