Absorption system definition

Absorption system means a leaching field and adjacent soils or other system for the treatment of sewage in an On-site Wastewater Treatment System by means of absorption into the ground. See Soil treatment area.
Absorption system means a device constructed to receive and to distribute effluent in such a manner that the effluent is effectively filtered and retained below ground surface.
Absorption system means a covered system constructed to receive and to disperse effluent, from gravity or a pump, in such a manner that the effluent is effectively filtered and retained below the ground surface.

Examples of Absorption system in a sentence

  • Absorption system laterals should be designed to receive proportional flows of wastewater.

  • Absorption system feasibility shall be based on Section R317-4-13 Table 5 or 6.

  • Absorption system excavations shall be made such that the soil in the bottom and sides of the excavation is not compacted.

  • Absorption system sizing must be determined using the following formula: The total square feet of the absorption system area is determined using the design wastewater flow rates from Chapter 3 (gpd) divided by the application rate in Section 2.1.7, Table 2.1-1 (gpd/ ft²).

  • All the hotel room we are using only energy efficient Absorption system minibar bar Refrigerators.
