In Dubai, sewage is managed through a system of underground pipes that collect wastewater from homes and buildings. Sewage trucks play a crucial role in the city's infrastructure by transporting sewage from areas not connected to the main sewage network to treatment plants. These trucks help ensure proper disposal and treatment of sewage to maintain public health and environmental quality in Dubai.
Depends on local codes and if separate drainage is available
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
Sewage from all points of source in a house will be collected in a single ground level collection pit within the house premises which will be connected to the public sewer by pipes laid underground to convey the sewage. A silt trap with a silt bucket will also be installed in the system to remove the silt carried by sewage and accumulated in the pit before the sewage flow into the house service connection pipes to prevent clogging of pipes.
The sewer vent pipe in the yard helps to release gases and odors from the sewage system. It functions by allowing air to enter the pipes, which helps prevent blockages and maintain proper flow of waste. This helps to keep the sewage system working efficiently and reduces the risk of backups or damage to the pipes.
Sewage pipes can be harmful to soil if they leak or break, releasing untreated wastewater and chemicals into the soil. This can lead to contamination of the soil and groundwater, affecting plant growth and biodiversity. Additionally, sewage pipes can introduce pathogens and pollutants into the soil, posing a health risk to humans and wildlife.

Usually ABS pipes are used. Sometimes PVC.
When it rains, the sewer system may become overwhelmed, causing sewage gases to be pushed back up through the pipes and into your bathroom, creating a foul smell.
