Wastewater
Water that has been used and contains dissolved or suspended waste materials. See sewage treatment. (source: EPA) Background from Wikipedia For the lake in Cumbria in England, see Wastwater. Wastewater is any water that has been adversely affected in quality by anthropogenic influence. It comprises liquid waste discharged by domestic residences, commercial properties, industry, and/or agriculture and can encompass a wide range of potential contaminants and concentrations. In the most common usage, it refers to the municipal wastewater that contains a broad spectrum of contaminants resulting from the mixing of wastewaters from different sources. Sewage is correctly the subset of wastewater that is contaminated with faeces or urine, but is often used to mean any waste water. "Sewage" includes domestic, municipal, or industrial liquid waste products disposed of, usually via a pipe or sewer or similar structure, sometimes in a cesspool emptier. The physical infrastructure, including pipes, pumps, screens, channels etc. used to convey sewage from its origin to the point of eventual treatment or disposal is termed sewerage. In the past the word "sewage" also meant what is now called "sewerage". Possibly because of that, the word "sewerage" is often mistakenly used to mean "sewage".
