Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Separate System of Sewerage: Its Theory and Construction
The moderate cost of the Separate System makes it pos sible to carry out a system of sewerage in many cases where the expense of the Combined System would make the con struction of sewers impossible.
One hindrance to the rapid introduction of the Separate System has been the lack of available information concerning it. Much has been written on the subject, but the necessary information is scattered in numerous pamphlets, reports, and papers presented to scientific societies in the United States and in England.
The object of this book is to explain what the Separate System is, what it is designed to do, and to give practical directions for designing and constructing sewers in accordance with that system.
