    A sewage treatment system is a network of processes designed to remove contaminants from wastewater, making it safe for discharge or reuse. These systems are crucial for protecting public health and the environment by preventing the spread of waterborne diseases and reducing pollution. The treatment process typically involves several stages, including preliminary treatment to remove large debris, primary treatment to settle solids, secondary treatment to biologically break down organic matter, and tertiary treatment for advanced purification, such as disinfection or nutrient removal. Sewage treatment systems can vary in complexity, from simple septic systems for individual homes to large-scale municipal plants serving entire cities. The effectiveness of these systems is vital for maintaining clean water resources and supporting sustainable development.
