Introduction… Sewage is water-carried waste, in
solution or suspension, that is intended to be removed from a community.
Also known as wastewater, it is more than 99% water and is characterized by volume or rate of flow, physical condition, chemical constituents and the bacteriological organisms that it contains.

The system of pipes used to collect and carry rain, waste water and trade waste away for treatment and disposal is called the sewerage or the waste water system.
There are three types of public sewers, each classified according to the kind of wastes it is required to handle.

Combined sewers
Sanitary sewers
Strom sewers
![Page 7: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Combined sewers
Combination public sewers are the oldest variety of the three types of sewers and they are required to carry storm and sanitary wastes to some safe terminal.
Rain water should be carried to some terminal not associated with the disposal plant
![Page 8: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Sanitary sewers
Sanitary sewers are those which are required to carry domestic sanitary wastes only. All rain water must be excluded from them.
Combination and sanitary sewers generally are placed about ten feet under the street grade and usually are found below the centre line of the street.
![Page 9: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Strom sewers Storm sewers are a comparatively new
installation, made necessary because of sewage treatment.
These sewers are made to carry only storm water and may terminate at any natural drainage area.
![Page 10: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Problems in sewer system
The per capita water supply (including the local and individual sources) to the population is less than the minimum requirement of water supply for the efficient performance of the sewerage system, i.e., 100 Lpcd.
This will cause the operation and
maintenance problems with frequent clogging, due to silting in the absence of self cleansing velocity;
![Page 11: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The topography of the town is flat necessitating deeper excavation of trenches and more number of sewage pumping stations.
Either ground water table is high or the substrata are made up of hard rock, leading to difficult construction of sewerage system.
![Page 12: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Sanitary sewer system
Public sanitary sewers perform two primary functions:
Safely carry the design peak discharge,Transport suspended materials to prevent
deposition in the sewer.3 types of sanitary wastewater collection
systems based on hydraulic characteristics and purpose:

Gravity sewer system
Pressure sewer system
Vacuum sewer system
![Page 14: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Gravity Sanitary Sewer Most common.
Wastewater transported by gravity.
Used to collect wastewater from residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional sources.
Conveyance capacity allowances must be made for groundwater infiltration and unavoidable inflow.
![Page 15: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Gravity sewer system
![Page 16: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Pressure (Pumped) Sanitary Sewer
Economical and environmentally friendly way of collecting, transporting and disposing of wastewater from households.
They are often used in areas when the landscape is either very hilly or very flat, in areas that regularly flood or have high water tables, or where it is impractical to install other types of sewerage systems.
![Page 17: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
A pressure sewer system is made up of a network of fully sealed pipes which are fed by pumping units located at each connected property.
The pumping unit processes the household wastewater and transfers it to the pressure sewer located in the street via a small pipeline within the property.
![Page 18: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The pressure sewer system is made of four key elements. These elements are:
The pumping unit
The boundary valve kit
The house service line
The control panel
![Page 19: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Pressure sewer system
![Page 20: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Advantages Being smaller in diameter are installed at
shallower depths than conventional sewers.
They need not be laid on a precise grade as in gravity sewers, but can often go over hill below the hydraulic gradient line.
Since there are no elements such as access manholes and sewer line is under pressure, the inflow from storm runoff is virtually eliminated.
The system is cheaper than conventional sewerage where unfavourable conditions prevail.
![Page 21: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Disadvantages They are to be differentiated from the
water supply distribution system with proper colour code.
Awareness among the public is required about the hazard risk of the pressure sewer system if they are tampered.
Each and every house should have a collection sump and pumping facilities.
![Page 22: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Vacuum Sewerage System The wastewater is being delivered by a
gravity system to the pre tank of the domestic shaft.
While the pre-tank being filled, an electronic sensor opens the interface valve.
During the opening air flows into the mixing chamber and is being mixed with the wastewater and leaves the valve flowing into the vacuum pipe network as a water-air mixture.
![Page 23: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
There are also pneumatically controlled valves that open and close depending on the vacuum in the pipe network.
The vacuum pump produces a vacuum in the wastewater collection tank as well as the pipe network by which the wastewater is sucked from the pipe network to the collection tank at the pumping station.

Design approach Where does the wastewater come
from?
How much wastewater flow is there going to be?
How is the wastewater going to be removed and treated?
![Page 31: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Where does the wastewater come from?
![Page 32: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Two main categories:
Sanitary Wastewater
Wastewater from residential, commercial, institutional and industrial sources.
Storm water Runoff
Wastewater resulting from rainfall running off streets, roofs, and other impervious surfaces.
![Page 33: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Components of a Community’s Wastewater
Domestic (sanitary) wastewater – wastewater discharged from residences and from commercial, institutional and similar facilities.
Industrial wastewater – wastewater in which industrial wastes predominate.
![Page 34: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Infiltration/Inflow (I/I) – extraneous water that enters the sewer system from the ground through various means, and storm water that is discharged from sources such as roof leaders, foundation drains, and storm sewers.
Storm water – runoff resulting from rainfall and snow melt
![Page 35: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Infiltration to Sanitary Sewer Systems Groundwater/percolating water in the
subsurface entering a sewer system through:Defective pipes
Leaking pipe joints
Poor connections
Cracked manhole walls etc.
![Page 36: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Inflow to Sanitary Sewer Systems
Water entering a sewer system from surface sources such as: Leaking manhole covers Directly connected roof guttersCellar or foundation drains Cross connections from storm drains and
combined sewers Yard and area drains Cooling-water discharges Drains from springs and swampy areas Street wash water
![Page 37: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Sanitary Sewer Overflows
Heavy rains overload the system though inflow and infiltration into cracks, ill-fitting joints, and leaky manholes.
To prevent hydraulic overload of treatment plants, the excessive sewage bypasses the plant and is discharged without treatment.
![Page 38: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Effects of SSOsEnvironmental
Nutrients and toxicants may cause algal blooms and harm wildlife. Algal blooms remove O2 from water, smothering aquatic life.
Decrease in water quality reduces number and range of plants and fish.
![Page 39: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Public Health Direct contact with water containing
sewage can cause skin and ear infections and gastroenteritis, and cuts become infected.
Illnesses result from eating fish/shellfish that swim in sewage contaminated waters.
Inhalation and skin absorption can also cause disease.
![Page 40: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
How much wastewater flow is there going to be?
![Page 41: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Sources and Rates of Domestic WastewaterFlows Small residential districts – wastewater
flows determined based on population density and average per capita contribution of wastewater.
Large residential districts – wastewater flows developed based on land use areas and anticipated population density (typically rates are based on wastewater flows from nearby areas).
If data is unavailable, estimate 70% of the domestic water-withdrawal rate is returned to the sanitary sewer
system.
![Page 42: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
The quantity of sewage produced depends upon the quantity of water use.
Generally;
Average daily flow = (70 – 80) % average water consumption i.e.
Average Daily Flow (ADF) of Sewage = 75%
Average Daily Demand (ADD) of water consumption = 0.75 ADD
![Page 43: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
The flows in sanitary sewers vary seasonably monthly, daily, hourly. For areas of moderate sizes be expressed as;
Maximum Daily Flow = 1.5 x ADFWhere
1.5 varies from place to placeMaximum hourly flow = (2 – 4) ADFThis is actually the peak flow
![Page 44: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Sewers are designed on peak flow basis, however the minimum flow passing through the sewer is also important in the design of a particular sewer because at low flow the velocity will be reduced considerably which may cause silting.
So the sewers must be checked for minimum velocities at their minimum hourly flows.
Generally for a moderate area the following minimum flows may be assumed. Minimum Daily Flow = 2/3 ADFMinimum Hourly Flow = 1/3 ADF
![Page 45: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

Industrial Wastewater Estimation
Industries without internal reuse programs: approximately 85 to 95% of water used will be returned to the sanitary sewer system.
Large industries with internal-water-reuse programs: need data on how much water is reused internally.

Types of Sewer Pipes in a Typical Separate Sanitary Collection System Sanitary sewers must be laid near all
occupied buildings in order to collect wastewater.
Building Connecting Pipes
Connects the building plumbing to the public
sanitary wastewater collection system.
Convey wastewater from the buildings to
lateral or branch sewer, or any other sewer
except another building sewer.
Normally begins outside the building
foundation
![Page 55: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Lateral or Branch SewersForms the first element of a wastewater
collection system.Usually in streets or special utility easements.Used to collect wastewater from one or more
building sewers and convey it to a main sewer.
Main SewersMain sewers are used to convey wastewater
from one or more lateral sewers to trunk sewers or to intercepting sewers.
![Page 56: Collection and estimation of sewage](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5553feb2b4c90544428b4da2/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Trunk SewersTrunk sewers are large sewers that are used to
convey wastewater from main sewers to treatment or other disposal facilities, or to large intercepting sewers.
Interceptor Sewers Intercepting sewers are large sewers that are
used to intercept a number of main or trunk sewers and convey the wastewater to treatment or other disposal facilities
