Answer:
Septic tanks are often used in rural areas, campgrounds, and picnic areas in place of sewer systems to treat human waste and separate solids and liquids in wastewater. The liquid portion of the waste is disposed of through a drain field where natural filtering takes place in the soil.

Explanation:
The inlet pipe collects the water waste in the septic tank, long enough that the solid and liquid waste is separated from each other. The bottom layer consists of heavier particles that are heavier than water and form a layer of sludge. Inside the tank bacteria from the wastewater breaks down the solid waste.
