Definitions

A septic tank is an underground chamber made of concrete, fiberglass, or plastic, used for the treatment and disposal of wastewater from a household or building. It functions by allowing solids to settle at the bottom, where they decompose anaerobically, while the liquid effluent is discharged into a drain field for further treatment and absorption into the soil.
