Answer : SEWER
sewer, sewerage – n
a waste pipe that carries away sewage or surface water
Sewer, conduit that carries wastewater from its source to a point of treatment and disposal. The wastewater may be domestic (sanitary) sewage, industrial sewage, storm runoff, or a mixture of the three. Large-diameter pipes or tunnels that carry a mixture of the three types of liquid wastes, called combined sewers, were commonly built in the 19th and early 20th centuries, and many are still in use. Today combined sewers are no longer built, however, because the large volumes of stormwater that must be carried during wet weather periods often exceed the capacity of sewage treatment systems. Instead, separate sewer systems are now built. Large-diameter storm sewers carry only runoff to a point of disposal; inlet structures called catch basins are built along the pipeline to convey the runoff into the system. A separate network of sanitary sewers, smaller in diameter, carries domestic and pretreated industrial sewage to a municipal wastewater treatment plant where contaminants are removed to prevent water pollution. In some cases, storm sewers may carry runoff to a point of temporary storage and treatment prior to disposal.
