No you shouldn't put egg shells in quantity in your septic tank. I work for a plumber and we pump 20 tanks a day and you can actually see the eggs shells in the tank. They tend to make everything really hard and alot hatder to pump the tank, that in turn makes the cost to pump the tank a little higher. Some think that egg shells sharpen the blades on the disposal.While a disposal and a septic tank don't do to good together because for some reason the ground food doesn't break down it just sits on top. Try ice instead of egg shells in youe disposal. That will sharpen your blades {ever so slightly}/

If your house plumbing is put together right rainwater won't go into the septic system. A properly designed septic system only takes "waste water". Story water is supposed to drain away from the house or into a "sump".

A septic tank lets out air when liquid comes in. Bacteria in the tank help breakdown the sewage into cleaner effluent which is released into the drainfield. Some bacteria need air to work, others work without air. The bacteria that work with air soon run out of air in the tank and stop working. They can be reactivated by putting air into the septic tank just like air is put in the water in a fish tank. The process or the system to put air into a septic system makes the system an aerobic or an aerated system.
The purpose of a septic vent in a septic system is to release gases that are produced during the breakdown of waste in the septic tank. This helps prevent pressure buildup in the system and allows for proper ventilation.
This would depend on the size of the septic tank, your land layout and the distance from your property to the tank. Needless to say, installing a septic tank of any kind is quite costly.
