Wednesday, 11 November 2020 Most people do not stop to think about the wastewater while bathing, doing dishes or using washing machines. Once it goes down the drain it is no longer of concern to anyone. City sewage treatment plants take care of waste produced and washed down the drains. Isolated or remote locations where connection to the mains drainage or city’s sewer pipelines is not possible septic tank units are traditionally used. Owners of these small treatment systems or septic tanks must adhere to the guidelines issued by the authorities as per the water related legislation. To escape the penalties and to stop polluting the environment, it is the responsibility of the user to maintain and operate the system in a manner that safely and efficiently treats the sewage. |
