Carbonation occurs when carbon dioxide is dissolved in water or an aqueous solution. This process is generally represented by the following reaction, where water and gaseous carbon dioxide react to form a dilute solution of carbonic acid. [H2O + CO2=H2CO3] This process yields the "frizz", to carbonated water, the head to beer, and the cork pop and bubbles to champagne and sparkling wine. Carbonation is used to improve both the taste and "texture" of the carbonated consumable. Carbonation is sometimes used for reasons other than consumption, to lower the pH(raise the hydrogen ion concentration) of a water solution... 2, record 4, English, - carbonation

Les boissons carbonatées exigent du dioxyde de carbone (CO2 gazeux) pour les rendre pétillantes. La carbonatation est une réaction qui a lieu lorsque le dioxyde de carbone est ajouté à un liquide à base d'eau. Le dioxide de carbone réagit avec les molécules d'eau pour en former un acide carbonique selon la réaction suivante : CO2+H2O = H2OCO3 (acide carbonique). C'est cet acide qui picote la langue quand vous buvez une boisson carbonatée. 1, record 4, French, - carbonatation

Tertiary treatment is... primarily intended to further clean, or polish, secondary treatment plant effluents by removing additional suspended material and lowering the BOD, generally by filtration. This polishing, however, has little impact on the dissolved solids, including the nutrients, synthetic organic chemicals, and heavy metals. To eliminate these constituents of wastewater, other methods of treatment have been devised. These processes include coagulation and sedimentation, precipitation, adsorption on activated carbon or other adsorbents, foam separation, electrodialysis, reverse osmosis, ion exchange, and distillation. 3, record 5, English, - distillation
