Hi All,

We have recently started looking at Settled sewerage as a possible sanitation option for conveyance of waste water other than the conventional sewer system.

The other name for this system are shallow bore sewer or small bore sewer.

It would be great if you could share some case studies where this kind of settled sewer system is applied.

Thanks in advance

Waiting in anticipation,

Regards,
Aasim

Dear Aasim,

Plase see attached an older document about solid-free sewerage. It also includes some case studies.

Warm regards,

Moritz

Hi Aasim,

These systems have been in use in small towns in South Australia for several decades – they call them Septic Tank Effluent Drainage Systems (STEDS), for example see
www.ahc.sa.gov.au/webdata/resources/file...ol_systems_by_pm.pdf
You should be able to find case studies through searching on Google.

In the USA they are called ‘effluent sewers’ or septic tank effluent gravity/pumped systems (STEP or STEG). I have attached one case study here. There are commercial package systems such as Orenco.

Good luck with your searches.
