  2. Effluent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effluent

    Effluent is defined by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as "wastewater–treated or untreated–that flows out of a treatment plant, sewer, or industrial outfall. Generally refers to wastes discharged into surface waters". [1] The Compact Oxford English Dictionary defines effluent as "liquid waste or sewage discharged ...

  3. Sedimentation (water treatment) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Sedimentation_(water_treatment)

    Sedimentation (water treatment) The physical process of sedimentation (the act of depositing sediment) has applications in water treatment, whereby gravity acts to remove suspended solids from water. [ 1] Solid particles entrained by the turbulence of moving water may be removed naturally by sedimentation in the still water of lakes and oceans.

  4. Sewage treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sewage_treatment

    Sewage treatment (or domestic wastewater treatment, municipal wastewater treatment) is a type of wastewater treatment which aims to remove contaminants from sewage to produce an effluent that is suitable to discharge to the surrounding environment or an intended reuse application, thereby preventing water pollution from raw sewage discharges. [ 2]

  5. Effluent sewer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effluent_sewer

    Effluent sewer systems are a much less common sewage disposal method than gravity sewer systems that use gravity, as well as pumping where needed, to send raw sewage and other wastewater straight from consumers to a sewage treatment plant. There are two main types of gravity sewers, sanitary and combined. Sanitary sewers only treat the ...

  6. Secondary treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_treatment

    Secondary treatment. Primary treatment settling removes about half of the solids and a third of the BOD from raw sewage. [ 7] Secondary treatment is defined as the "removal of biodegradable organic matter (in solution or suspension) and suspended solids. Disinfection is also typically included in the definition of conventional secondary treatment."

  7. Water treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_treatment

    Wastewater treatment is a process which removes and eliminates contaminants from wastewater. It thus converts it into an effluent that can be returned to the water cycle. Once back in the water cycle, the effluent creates an acceptable impact on the environment. It is also possible to reuse it.

  8. Sewage sludge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sewage_sludge

    Sewage sludge is the residual, semi-solid material that is produced as a by-product during sewage treatment of industrial or municipal wastewater. The term "septage" also refers to sludge from simple wastewater treatment but is connected to simple on-site sanitation systems, such as septic tanks . When fresh sewage or wastewater enters a ...

  9. Coagulation (water treatment) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coagulation_(water_treatment)

    Coagulation is a chemical process that involves neutralization of charge whereas flocculation is a physical process and does not involve neutralization of charge. The coagulation-flocculation process can be used as a preliminary or intermediary step between other water or wastewater treatment processes like filtration and sedimentation.
