There are basically two types of sewage treatment plants
1. Chemically treated - where chemicals are added to break down the effluents and disinfect it
2. Biologically treated - the effluent is broken down with the help of aerobic bacteria
Sewage treatment plants (STPs) primarily focus on the treatment of domestic wastewater, which includes sewage from households and commercial establishments, removing contaminants to make it safe for discharge or reuse. Effluent treatment plants (ETPs), on the other hand, treat industrial wastewater, which may contain hazardous substances and pollutants specific to various industrial processes. While both types of plants aim to purify water, their treatment processes and the types of waste they handle differ significantly based on their sources and the contaminants present.
After effluent goes down the drain into a sewer, it goes to a sewage treatment plant. At the treatment plant the water is cleaned and returned to the environment.
Sewage treatment is often synonymous with water treatment because both processes aim to clean and purify water for safe use. Sewage treatment specifically focuses on removing contaminants from wastewater, which is essential for protecting public health and the environment. In broader terms, water treatment encompasses various processes, including the treatment of natural water sources, to ensure that all water is safe for consumption and ecological balance. Thus, sewage treatment is a critical component of overall water treatment practices.
The Activated Sludge Process for the Sewage treatment which is well known and widely used was first invented by Edward Ardern and William Lockett in 1914.
Sewage is a waste water from houses and other institutions, industries while septic tank is a treatment unit for sewage from small communities

Sewage treatment is an essential process in a more advanced society. Untreated sewage can reenter the water system and spread disease. Land around a sewage treatment plant would be cheap, as it is a less desirable area to live, because of the bad smell.
Sewage travels from your home by pipes. The flow is due to the slope of the pipes so the sewage is essentially flowing downhill to a collection well or pit. The collected sewage is pumped from the pits into a forcemain which pressures the material to a sewage treatment plant. In rural ares or industrial parks sewage sometimes flows to a collection tank which is pumped out and into a truck which carries it to sewage plant for discharge to the treatment system
