Septic Tanks - A Necessity for Our Environment

Effluent municipal wastewater contains contaminants that are destroying our environment. These effluents are discharged into lakes, ponds, rivers and oceans, killing marine life and even damage to humans. Excess phosphorus makes the most common problem.  

Phosphorus is an essential element of our ecosystem that promotes the growth of algae and aquatic plants.  

Many fish species are dependent on these algae and plants to survive. But phosphorus discharges excess that organic waste in industrial effluents and sewage are destroying marine life.  

Algae grow abnormally fast, disrupt the natural growth and therefore the quality of fish food are destroyed. blown oxygen fish underwater, for this reason the oxygen content decreases, and can not survive.  

Phosphorus also releases harmful chemicals and bacteria that harm us if we contact with contaminated water or eating fish from the polluted river.


Types of wastewater from homes
There are three types of domestic wastewater: gray water, sewage and wastewater. Gray water is derived from the shower, laundry, toilets, etc.  

However, this does not include the dirty water flows directly from our toilets. Blackwater out of the shower, which contains human feces, urine and other harmful substances. Wastewater is the combination of the two and is worse compared.
the operation of the septic system
A septic system is a self-treatment of wastewater. They are fairly common in homes, especially in rural households, but can also be found in urban life. Many good sellers provide the best wastewater treatment systems. You can get the best of onsite wastewater treatment systems for home or industry. These septic systems are also available for commercial use.  

They are very simple in design, easy to install and does not require large sewer lines for construction. The two most important parts are the domain of the septic tank and drain. dirty domestic water enters the tank through the inlet using the drainage pipes.  

Inside, it remains and is separated into three layers: water, heavier solids as water and solids which are lighter compared. heavier solids sinks to the bottom, lighter solids float on top, and clean water is part of in the middle.  

This somewhat clear water then flows through the drain field. There are a series of gravel and sand beds through which flows, and filtered. This water is dispersed in the soil, and the soil and any organic material is filtered decomposes.
Septic tank maintenance
- Pumping When the dirty water flows into the septic tank, which is carried out and separated into three layers: the water, the heavier solids that water and lighter than solid water. heavier solids sinks to the bottom called "mud" and lighter solids float on top are known as "scum." Their maintenance is to remove the mud and foam tank pumping. Of course, the amount of stress depends on the amount of waste and size of deposits.
- Inspection: It is reported that many tanks leak and its cover. Any leakage or blockage can cause serious problems and strong odors. To avoid such situations, you should perform periodic inspections of your tank.
- Additives: Many people try to reduce pumping activities by using additives in the septic tank. These additives are said to break up the sludge and foam in the tank.
