The given illustration depicts the process of manufacturing carbonated beverages. Overall, this process comprises five steps, divided into three main stages, which start with initial treatments of raw water and transforming this processed component into carbonated drinks, and concluding with packaging them into bottles and cans for conveying to supermarkets.
Regarding the first two stages aim to manufacture carbonated beverages, raw water is filtered before moving to a dual-function station, where it is softened with chemicals. After that, this softened component is pumped into electric heaters for heating and then reduced temperature by undergoing a cooling process in a cooling pipe. Subsequently, cooled water is flowed into tanks where carbon dioxide is added.
Concerning the remaining stages, carbonated liquid is mixed with various additives such as colouring, syrup and favour to entirely become carbonated beverages, which undergo another filtration subsequently. Finally, this filtered liquid is divided into bottles and cans before being packaged and delivered to supermarkets for consumption.
