6、ssed to Permissions apparently it was OK to drink the water, but it was not good enough for beer! The streets often were open sewers and garbage dumps. Also, people relieved themselves in the streets, and emptied their chamber pots directly from doors or windows. The only environmental concern then
7、was a direct hit on the people in the streets! A major development that had a far reaching environmental impact was the flush toilet. Although early models were developed in the 18th century and before, the flush toilet as we now know it was invented by Thomas Crapper in England about a hundred year
8、s ago. The flush toilet has had a tremendous impact on water resources management, because it required both water supply and sewer systems. Moreover, the sewage often ended up in the same water where the drinking water came from. Thus the systems required two treatment barriers: sewage treatment bef
9、ore discharge into surface water and drinking water treatment after diversion from the streams for municipal water supply, plus plenty of water in between for dilution. Flush toilets are marvels of home and urban sanitation, but they are not all that great for cities in water-short areas. Such areas
10、 may have to do a lot of local recycling or use dry toilets with modern collection systems and proper processing of the waste. Initially, sewage was not treated or at best marginally treated in lagoons. Sewage farms were also used to keep sewage out of surface water, using the out-of-sight out- of-m
11、ind philosophy. The discharge of untreated sewage into surface water caused illness and epidemics in people drinking that water. Then, in the early 1900s chlorination was invented and put into practice, so cities could disinfect surface water for municipal water supply. This gave the cities a license to dump their sewage effluent into streams because pathogens then were no longer a concern. Sewage farms were phased out and converted into streets and houses. Primary treatment was used more and more, and, later on, secondary treatment with trickling filters and activated sludge aeration
