Best Answer

Most water flows through rivers.

Sewage is usually treated, by digestion of the organic matter by microorganisms, followed by allowing the sludge to settle before it is discharged to rivers or the sea.

When the amount of water exceeds the capability of the sewage plant to treat it, raw sewage is discharged to sea. This can be done safely if a long enough pipe is used, and beaches are closed for a period after the discharge.

Where does bathtub water go after it enters the drain?

If you do not have mains sewage it will go into a local septic tank on the property or near by. Where it will be treated an then discharged into a soak away.

From there it can either be discharged into a river or sea or it might be treated and recycled.
