Sewage Overflow and Cleanup - Causes of This Unpleasant Situation
Sewers take surface water that runs off roads, footpaths and sewage from residential and commercial properties to a sewage treatment plant. Sewer system are designed to cope with everyday volumes but sometimes exceptional weather can cause it to flood. When the sewerage system is overrun with sewage, waste or water, it can lead to sewage to overflow through drains, pipes or toilets. Heavy rainfall is one of the most common reasons for sewage flooding. Although sewage leaks can also occur if a blockage is caused by misuse of sewers, root growth or sanitary items being flushed down the toilet, a sewer collapse or pumping station failure. Surcharge from private drains and sewers and insufficient land drainage also contribute to sewage overflow. Sewage spill pose as a severe health risk apart from causing a foul smell.
Sewage Spill - a Hotspot for Diseases
Sewage is a major carrier of harmful pathogens and diseases. Sewage contains human and animal waste like excreta, urine, saliva, blood and crud which are loaded with bacteria and germs that can cause serious illnesses such as Gastritis, Dysentery, Hepatitis and Gastroenteritis, to name a few. It provides the optimal environment for any microbes to proliferate and flourish. Raw sewage cleanups need to be attended to immediately to avoid serious, long-term consequences. Some of the most wide-spread and disastrous epidemics have been a direct result of mismanaged sewage systems and waste management. Since all waste water is bio-hazardous, it contaminates any surface or person coming in contact with it.
