Parts and Functionality of a Commercial Septic System

A proper septic system will include a grease trap installed in the kitchen to prevent fat, grease, and oil from entering and damaging the system. Septic systems also feature a large tank, which holds all the wastewater and allows heavier waste to settle to the bottom.
ATUs treat the wastewater using mechanical or aerobic systems. They remove many pathogens and heavily filter the wastewater.
Dosing systems measure the amounts of wastewater while pumps push it out into the distribution pipes. Those pipes then disperse the waste into the drain field.
A drain field is a network of pipes dug into trenches. They are perforated to release the wastewater steadily into the soil, where it is naturally filtered to remove impurities. It’s a natural process that keeps the water away from groundwater supplies. However, it means you can’t park above or near the drain field and should refrain from using heavy machinery on it.
