The partially treated sewage that is stored in a septic tank is commonly called as Septage. It includes the liquids, solids (sludge), as well as the fats, oils and grease (scum) that accumulate in septic tanks over time. Septage management includes the entire process of design, collection, safe treatment& disposal of septage based on generation of sewage. A comprehensive program that regulates periodic septic tank cleaning, as well as septage transport, treatment, re-use,and disposal is important in the context of our rapidly urbanizing economies.
