Excerpt from A Study of Factors Affecting the Efficiency and Design of Farm Septic Tanks
The purpose of this investigation was to study: (1) the amount and rate of sewage flow that a farm septic tank may be expected to care for; (2) the effect of the size of the tank on its efficiency for a given amount of sewage; (3) the relation of length, width, and depth of tank to efficient operation; (4) the relative efficiency of single chamber and multiple-chamber tanks.
