It collects in the tank and either evaporates over time or if more water goes into the tank than it can hold it outflows into whats called a drain field. It flows through perforated pipes into the area around the septic tank where it is filtered through and into the soil.
A septic tank plumbing diagram illustrates the layout and connections of pipes and components in a septic system, showing how waste flows from the house to the septic tank and then to the drain field for treatment and disposal.
