This system consists of larger diameter piping, water traps, and is well vented to prevent toxic gases from entering the living space. The plumbing drains and vents article discusses the topic further, and introduces sewage treatment.

Famous quotes containing the words waste and/or water:

    The Old Testament teems with prophecies of the Messiah, but nowhere is it intimated that that Messiah is to stand as a God to be worshipped. He is to bring peace on earth, to build up the waste places—to comfort the broken-hearted, but nowhere is he spoken of as a deity.
    Olympia Brown (1835–1900)

    —the main jet
    Struggling aloft unti it seems at rest

    In the act of rising, until
    The very wish of water is reversed,
    Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)
