  2. Combined sewer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combined_sewer

    Combined sewer outflow into the Anacostia River in Washington, D.C. Ratcliff Beach CSO discharges into the River Thames in London [7]. These relief structures, called "storm-water regulators" (in American English - or "combined sewer overflows" in British English) are constructed in combined sewer systems to divert flows in excess of the peak design flow of the sewage treatment plant.

  3. Sanitary sewer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanitary_sewer

    Most of the solids are removed by the septic tanks, so the treatment plant can be much smaller than a typical plant. In addition, because of the vast reduction in solid waste, a pumping system, rather than a gravity system, can be used to move the wastewater. The pipes have small diameters, typically 1.5 to 4 inches (4 to 10 cm).

  4. Pumping station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumping_station

    Similarly, in land drainage, stations pump water to prevent flooding in areas below sea level, a concept pioneered during the Victorian era in places like The Fens in the UK. The introduction of "package pumping stations" has modernized drainage systems, allowing a compact, efficient solution for areas where gravity drainage is impractical.

  5. Effluent sewer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effluent_sewer

    Effluent sewer systems, as well as all sewer systems, can use two methods to transport wastewater to a treatment facility. These methods are gravity and pumping, also called pressure systems. Gravity systems use pipes that are laid on a slight downhill slope to transport wastewater. Effluent pumping systems have pipes that are buried at a ...

  6. Drain-waste-vent system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drain-waste-vent_system

    A sewer pipe is normally at neutral air pressure compared to the surrounding atmosphere.When a column of waste water flows through a pipe, it compresses air ahead of it in the system, creating a positive pressure that must be released so it does not push back on the waste stream and downstream traps, slow drainage, and induce potential clogs.

  7. Well drainage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_drainage

    Vertical drainage systems are drainage systems using pumped wells, either open dug wells or tube wells. Map of a well field for subsurface drainage with radial flow across concentrical cylinders representing the equipotentials. Both systems serve the same purposes, namely water table control and soil salinity control. Both systems can ...

  8. Advanced Drainage Systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Drainage_Systems

    Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc. (ADS) designs, manufactures and markets polypropylene and polyethylene pipes, plastic leach field chambers and systems, septic tanks and accessories, storm retention/detention and septic chambers, polyvinyl chloride drainage structures, fittings, and water filters and water separators. [1]

  9. Pressure sewer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_sewer

    The pumping well and pump controls require expert maintenance and repair should they fail. [1] Electricity is required to power the pump and this cost would typically fall on the local house-holder. Although the pump well is usually designed to accommodate several days storage, failure of the pump or of the local electricity supply for an ...
