2. Septic tank - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septic_tank

   The settled solids are anaerobically digested, reducing the volume of solids. The liquid component flows through the dividing wall into the second chamber, where further settlement takes place. One option for the effluent is the draining into the septic drain field , also referred to as a leach field, drain field or seepage field, depending ...

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. Dewatering - Wikipedia

5. Chopper pumps - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chopper_pumps

   The main advantage of this type of pump is that it prevents clogging of the pump itself and of the adjacent piping, as all the solids and stringy materials are macerated by the chopping system. Chopper pumps exist in various configurations, including submersible and dry-installed design and they are typically equipped with an electric motor to ...

6. Effluent sewer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effluent_sewer

   An alternative effluent sewer which is similar to the STEG system is the STEP system. Because of the vast reduction of solid wastes and the capture of fats, oils and grease (FOG) within the interceptor tank, a pumping system can be used to move the wastewater under pressure rather than a gravity driven conveyance system.
