| The development of large drainage system is costly, requiring collaboration between farmers, chamber of agriculture, labor union, government, municipalities, the General Council office and residents. It can work on a large scale in the context of land consolidation, and with subsidies. In agriculture, drainage is an operation that involves artificially favors the evacuation of free water present in the macro-porosity of the soil by precipitation. This evacuation may use ditches or drains. The ditches dug in the ground, are an economical solution but poorly suited to mechanized farming. The drain covers in the soil to a depth. They designed with terracotta elements, nested inside one another for older perforated flexible plastic tube and sometimes covered with foam to prevent the entry of roots inside the drain. Drainage has extensively practiced in almost all river basins in Western Europe, in parts of Asia and North America. Small drainage channels are called Watringues or Water gang in northern France and Belgium. In drainage system, to handle raw sewage that feeds from underground gravity pipelines. Specially designed Gravity pipeline put down at an angle so that a liquid can flow in same direction under gravity. Sewage usually feeds into and stores in an underground pit, commonly known as a wet well. To detect the sewage water level wet wells are set with electrical instrumentation, when it reaches particular point, a pump will activate and it starts lifting sewage from well to get release into gravity manhole. This is the cycle move on until the sewage gets disposed in a treatment plan. Additional pumps will use in the case of high sewage flows into the well such as during peak flow periods and rainy season. If the situation is critical or if pumping station fails then there is backup facility which disposes sewage into environment which leads to a hygienic sewer overflow. In this system, redundancy is built so that if the load increases or if any one pump is fail than rest of the pumps will handle the flow. Many electronic controllers such as different types of sensors and many more electronic applications are available in the market, which are especially designed for this system. Sewage pumps are almost end-suction centrifugal pumps with open impellers, which are the rotors inside a tube or channel used to increase the pressure and flow of a fluid. These are specially designed with a large open passage so as to avoid clogging with fragments or winding stringy garbage onto the impeller. As sewage water contains many chemical substances it also creates poisonous gases such as methane and hydrogen sulfide in the interior of sewage water pipelines.
