For primitive household: Waste water would discharge through canal, some would install the open septic tank for toilet water which allow water to absorb down through soil.
For modern household: Usually water from sink, bath tub and washing would discharged directly to municipal sewage system. Water run down the toilet bowl would go through a close septic tank before discharge to municipal sewage.
For apartment or share housing: All water will pass through primary treatment like oil trapping or septic tank then discharge to municipal sewage.
Sewage is wastewater that contains a mixture of human waste, food scraps, chemicals, and other pollutants, typically generated from households and industries. It can be harmful to humans by contaminating drinking water sources, leading to waterborne diseases like cholera and dysentery. Additionally, untreated sewage can damage ecosystems, harm aquatic life, and contribute to the spread of pathogens and harmful chemicals in the environment. Proper treatment and management of sewage are essential to mitigate these health and environmental risks.

Apexvs. The sewage system in a neighborhood
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.

Sewage in airplanes is stored in onboard tanks designed specifically for waste management. When the aircraft lands, the waste is pumped out by ground crews using specialized equipment. In-flight, the sewage system is sealed to prevent any leaks or odors, ensuring hygiene and safety for passengers and crew. The waste is then disposed of in accordance with local regulations at the airport.
Sewage trucks at the Burj Khalifa manage waste disposal by collecting and transporting sewage from the building to a treatment facility where it is processed and treated before being safely disposed of.

chemicals located in the WC's of planes and then unloaded at airports through localised disposal and filtration
Sewage travels from your home by pipes. The flow is due to the slope of the pipes so the sewage is essentially flowing downhill to a collection well or pit. The collected sewage is pumped from the pits into a forcemain which pressures the material to a sewage treatment plant. In rural ares or industrial parks sewage sometimes flows to a collection tank which is pumped out and into a truck which carries it to sewage plant for discharge to the treatment system
Oil and sewage would affect us especially if it was disposed of in a lake. From there, it could go into bottled water, and poison fish and various other animals. If it was disposed of in a landfill. the buildup of methan could produce a gas problem, and would also affect a vast number of animals. However, if it was dumped in a lake, it would be more serious.

No, degreaser should not be poured down the drain as it can harm the environment and sewage system. It should be disposed of properly according to local regulations.
Sewage is liquid waste from households and retail areas that contains sanitary waste (Feces and urine), soaps, food scraps, water, cooking wastes etc.It is gathered and piped to sewage treatment plants. Depending on the complexity of the plant the treatment consists of:* Primary treatment: "De-lumping" the sewage and allowing the fluids to sit in lagoons for a period of time before discharge. Removed solids are disposed of to land.* Secondary Treatment: "Delumping" the sewage. Allowing the sewage to be mixed with bacteria in aeration basins which remove the dissolved organics. Removing the bacteria and discharging the treated water. Removed solids are disposed of to the land or anaerobically digested to generate methane. * Tertiary Treatment: The same as Secondary Treatment but the effluent is filtered and disinfected before discharge Storm water can also be considered as sewage. In many cases it has as many contaminants as sanitary sewage. I is generally simply settled prior to discharge to allow solids to settle out and oils to float to the top for removal
