Abstract
The main determination of this work is to analyze the performance of the water treatment plant (WTP) and tries to find that which of the subpart/subparts of water treatment plant affects it. The problem that generally occurs in the WTP is based upon the poor maintenance and material used during manufacturing for its subparts. These types of the problem could be prevented if safety measures and maintenance techniques are followed properly and regularly. For analyzing WTP, pump plays very important role in supplying water to different components; thus, other machines can also perform their function as well. Along with pumps, valves also need regular maintenance for better performance. Other components also have their significance. Except this, the WTP had various components which need maintenance and replacement over a different span of time period.
