What is raw sewage?

Raw sewage is untreated wastewater that contains a mixture of human waste, household sewage, and other pollutants. It can contain harmful bacteria, viruses, parasites, and other contaminants that can pose serious health risks to humans and the environment.

Raw sewage is typically generated from toilets, sinks, showers, and other sources within homes, businesses, and industrial facilities. When raw sewage is not properly treated and disposed of, it can contaminate water sources, soil, and air, leading to the spread of diseases, water pollution, and environmental degradation.

It is important to properly treat and dispose of raw sewage to prevent the spread of disease and protect public health and the environment. Treatment processes such as filtration, disinfection, and biological treatment are commonly used to remove harmful contaminants from raw sewage before it is released back into the environment.
