Water treatment plants are those facilities that treat water, ground water or surface water, and produce potable water for public consumption or provide primary treatment and produce "industrial water." A wastewater discharge permit is typically required when the treatment of the raw water results in a discharge of wastewater (e.g., backwash) to surface water. Other wise a good and systematic maintenance to the mechanical and electrical equipments will lengthen the lifespan of the equipments, A suitable maintenance also important in order to make sure that the equipments are in a good condition. For example, is a right and well scheduling of the preventive maintenance and corrective maintenance. Operation also plays a very important role in this water treatment process. A good and systematic process is important to produce a highly quality water. With a systematic arrangement of all the mechanical and electrical equipments, this can ease the water treatment operations. Both factors, operation and maintenance affect the efficiency of water quality.
