Explain the sewer system.

Open in App
Solution

Sewer system is a facility consisting of a system of pipelines to carry sewage. Sewage from our homes leaves through drain pipes and reaches sewer mains of the city. The sewage is then passed onto the wastewater treatment plants through larger pipes connected to the sewer mains underground. In order for the waste to flow easily, the sewer system has been given a slope. As the sewer pipes are underground, manholes are arranged at desired places so that persons can enter the sewers through the manhole and fix the blocked or leaky pipes.
