What is the purpose of a septic tank?
The fundamental purpose of a septic tank is to serve as an on-site wastewater treatment system for properties not connected to a municipal sewer. It receives all household wastewater, allowing solids to settle and form a sludge layer at the bottom, while lighter materials like grease and oil float to the surface as scum. This separation process is crucial for preventing solids from reaching and clogging the drain field. The liquid effluent then flows to the drain field for further treatment by soil and natural microbes, effectively purifying the water before it returns to the environment. This system is vital for public health and environmental protection.
