Both the sewer pipe leaking and a company discharging liquid waste into a river are emitting water pollution.
The difference is that the sewage is composed of sanitary waste (feces and urine), pharmaceutical waste from medicines taken and disposed of in the building, and food waste from food preparation. The factory could be putting out a wide range of chemicals, acids, alkalis, heavy metals, complex organics and solvents.
