settling phase
Explanation:
Kluwer GPW:
klaarbak = settling tank
klaarvijver, klaarbassin = settling basin / pool / sump


Internetreferentie:
This pathway includes a mixing phase, a settling phase, and a decanting phase. These are important because in an activated sludge plant the operator cannot let the sludge escape the plant or he'll lose the nitrifying bacteria because they are part of the sludge.
