The diagram gives information about the process of making carbonated drinks. Summarise the information by selecting and report in the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The diagram shows how fizzy drinks are manufactured.

Overall

, the process can be divided into 5 stages, starting with

water

preparation, evaporation and carbonation, mixing, filtering and filling to the

last

process of distribution.

Firstly

, raw

water

will be filtered before going into

water

softening machines and being processed with chemicals in the initial cleaning stage.

Secondly

, after the preparation is done, the cleaned

water

will be pumped into electric heaters

to begin

the heating evaporation and carbonation process.

Then

, it passes through a cooling pipe to get carbonated with a particular gas called carbon dioxide, before being sent to the mixing tank. Once the

water

is filled in the tank, stage 3 begins.

Water

will be added with combinations of colouring substances, syrup, and flavour in order to make a specific taste.

Consequently

, in stage 4, the mixed

water

will be filtered again in order to be filled into bottles and cans.

Finally

, the packages are packed into boxes before being delivered to different supermarkets by trucks.
