SYNOPSIS

Sewerage system plays a crucial role in the construction of residential, industrial, or commercial projects, as they significantly  impact  the  quality  of  life  within  a community. As human societies transitioned from nomadic  cultures  to  settled civilizations, the proper disposal of waste, both solid and liquid, became a significant concern. Consequently, the establishment of a modern and efficient sewerage system is of utmost importance for any country to ensure the treatment of wastewater before its discharge into rivers. Over the past five  decades,  numerous  sewage  treatment methods have been developed to  address  the  imperative  of  protecting  public  health and the environment. In this presentation,  we  will  delve  into  the  intricacies  of sewerage works, including the planning, design, and implementation processes and procedures involved. By exploring these topics, we aim to highlight the significance of sewerage  systems  in  promoting  sustainable  development,  protecting  public  well- being, and fostering a harmonious coexistence with the environment.
