Let's Fly Away it happened here to when it trains a lot water gets into to sewage pipe and when the creek flood water gets in it an sewage gets spilled into the creek in Sydney
For some reason, I always assumed that water that went down the drain went to a water treatment facility, and then after treatment, went back into the municipal water supply, or into a reservoir or something like that so it could be used again. Looks like I was wrong - in most places, after treatment, it just gets dumped into a river and carried out to sea. This seems relevant right now, because where I am, it hasn't rained at all in more than 2.5 months and the government is starting to ration water.
Been living in US for 10 years. I have been curious about where does the waste go after flushing and luckily I found this video. This much educational information for only 700k views?
My grandpa is the president of the water district in Ranger/Eastland, Texas, walked me through the plant and taught he how everything works. It's pretty cool
Yooo Detroit's wastewater treatment process is amazing. Chemical treatment of wastewater is so common in the US that I didn't even know there were good alternatives in use anywhere here.
Ten minutes is all it takes to educate people about stuff most don't ever want to have to think about. I worked in the field. I am not an outcast from society. Flush but don't forget.
Filipinos should watch this and pay attention to the problem of sewage system in our country.. After watching reporters notebook (documentary about the problem of sewage system) I became more aware and curious on how this problem should be handled..
What woman thinks that its okay to flush tampons and pads down the toilet??? Literally every bathroom says "DON'T FLUSH SANITARY NAPKINS DOWN THE TOILETTE!!!" Every. Bathroom. Who is doing this? WHO????
Hive Atlas apparently a couple of them, i had a big ass party for my 16th bday and some dumb bimbo flushed a tampon down my toilet and fucked up my whole basement smh
I really appreciate this video but am disappointed that Nestle is advertising their water before this video. In Ontario, Nestle is taking its waters from our water source, bottling it and selling it. Since it takes about 3 times as much water to make a water bottle as what the bottle holds, making plastic bottles is a poor use of our water resources. This is in addition to the fact that many of those bottles end up requiring even more energy to be recycled/cleaned out of waterways/or take up space in landfills.
Thank you I needed this video for my class in science and they need a really good grade to make my mom proud 🙂🙂🙂 thank you so now I can show this to my teacher and show this to my partners in science and then will have a good grade thanks to you😃😃😃😃😃😃🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
The guy at the sewer plant told us when they got through with the 💩 water it was cleaner than the river they send it into. We told him to drink some. He wouldn’t.
The stuff they are saying you shouldn't do is COMMON SENCE. There really are way to many uneducated people in this world and also people that generally just don't care.. Sad world we live in and is the reason the world is in the state its it.
Good video. Although it's not much comfort knowing chlorine isn't needed for wastewater yet it is added along with the poison fluoride to your DRINKING WATER!!!
Fluoride is what protects your teeth and is vital for people that wish to use their teeth past the age of 35. Please read up and if you can, test it yourself, to know what it actually does before you just read and parrot the "tin foil" hat people about conspiracies.
They slope downwards. The water travels by gravity. If its to far, or you live lower than the treatment facility then they have lift stations( holes in the ground that collect and pump it up hill)
MagicalBread lol this is a joke i think. but if you actually didn't know that canada is right on the detroit river. then you are brain dead. but if you are joking then good job
Agent Office what sort of oppressed dictatorship do you live in. The city taking ownership of rainwater?? That is bullshit bro stand up against this oppression water is a fundamental right.
Denver is one example of that. Water is a right, but if everybody was to do it in a giant city like that the amount of water that runs off to rivers and lakes could change by a lot. This amounts to changes in the environment and less water to it. Kind of a necessary evil.
I live in Australia and I had no idea that my sewer went to the Detroit River
Ehhh lol
Let's Fly Away it happened here to when it trains a lot water gets into to sewage pipe and when the creek flood water gets in it an sewage gets spilled into the creek in Sydney
hahaha good one
Lol same for me in California.
@Nathan Cofone r/wooosh
They should teach this in schools
They do teach this in schools.
Cake Can, better yet take them to the plant show them what guys have to do to fix the plant
I don't know about your country, but they do teach us this in chemistry.
No they shouldn't since this doesn't talk about the cleaning
Watching this because of school rn you got your wish
Very well done. Much more engaging and explanatory than most videos on wastewater treatment I am finding on youtube.
They sure as hell don't teach this in school, though they ought to.
they ought to teach more practical stuff like this in schools, real life stuff
cvetko jovcevski I went on a field trip to a wastewater treatment plant when I was in school.
This video was showed to us today in Science class.
Dragonfly 6300 the ought to teach you to fucking talk normal
+xblackcatx13 666 I guess it's only fitting to see a shit comment on a video about wastewater.
I live in California, I had no idea all my waste water went to the Detroit river.
ProdiG Right? I'm from California to, I didn't know we all lived by Detroit river..
thattniggahfernn 498 Wow! I Know right!..... or maybe this video was meant for people who live in Detroit... :O
TheGreenKnight I live in Germany poor Detroit-river
I live in Michigan soo In Detroit so it goes there so fast
ProdiG h
It's sad that videos like this never make it to the trending page
I worked at a wastewater treatment plant for 25 years. I can say honestly I had a shifty job! But I also say damn proud to help clean water

DETROIT W-
WELL SHEEEET
When am bored I watch random videos like this and at the same time I find it satisfying
It's always lovable to watch how water is cleaned. Blessed you.
I've always been interested in waste water treatment since I was little, thanks for finally clearing this up for me!
Awesome video, I wish more people could see this.
0:08 Oh my God I have to remark, I've never seen a square toilet before (i live in the USA)
+TheBishop12 I can't believe it xD
TheBishop12 Canadian design
TheBishop12 Me neither lol
TheBishop12 ikr
It's Spongebob's toilet
I think everyone should see this video....Please share! Great job!

Please don't dump cooking oil down the drain!
Fine I'll dumb olive oil down the drain
Please dont flush grease.. Rags..toys... Female products either.
@@jonathonmason6608 Please don't tell me what to do with my toilet
@@louisbarningham please don’t cause sewage overflows bud.
@@HomebrandFishfood that’s theoretically ok since it doesn’t solidify.
My grandpa is the president of the water district in Ranger/Eastland, Texas, walked me through the plant and taught he how everything works. It's pretty cool
Very concise and to the point. I'll be sure to share this on FB.
They taught this in my science class and I just went back to rewatch it for no reason
me too
This should be taught early in school! A random conscious acknowledgement of my running water while I was brushing my teeth brought me here.
I live in ireland I didn't know all my waste went to the Detroit river.
Hello from BC Canada. Great educational video for any city
thank you for this. will use with my classes here in Alaska before we tour out own plant
Where in Alaska?
i really wish they would show this at school. this is cool.
How many times did he say Detroit River?
Michael De Santa about 12 times
LAX Aviation 7 amIHOE
Read his channel name.
89 times

" No 1, No 2 and TP." love it, so simple! thank you!!!!
Excellent video. Very informative. Well done.

It’s Windsor Ontario’s process going into the Detroit River lol

Agreeing with previous posts; very well done!
This video is actually eye opening great work !
Filipinos should watch this and pay attention to the problem of sewage system in our country.. After watching reporters notebook (documentary about the problem of sewage system) I became more aware and curious on how this problem should be handled..
Watched until the end. I guess I'll need to find somewhere else to brush my teeth?
+AG47 Fantasy hehe
and shave face
Tooth paste is a soap
+christian doodles toothpaste is Far from just soap... It is poison, look into fluoride! Its sad and its real!
so im assuming you dont use toothpaste because you think its poisoning you?
so i can piss while showering without getting a nasty bad feeling?
you pretty much shower with the re-cleaned water from your neighbor piss
These are the types of "what ifs" that i think abt in 3 am
What woman thinks that its okay to flush tampons and pads down the toilet??? Literally every bathroom says "DON'T FLUSH SANITARY NAPKINS DOWN THE TOILETTE!!!" Every. Bathroom. Who is doing this? WHO????
People who aren't very intelligent most likely.
Hive Atlas apparently a couple of them, i had a big ass party for my 16th bday and some dumb bimbo flushed a tampon down my toilet and fucked up my whole basement smh
Ibrahim W u rite , but i was 16 at the time i didnt know much
People that will never watch this video!
Your grandman is doing it.
This encourages me more to conserve water and to put my paint water anywhere else, fire video 🔥🔥🗣️🗣️
wow! great innovation!
my daughter and I loved the video it was super informative and helpful

What's the piano music at 0:50 ? Sounds so beautiful.
They really should teach this stuff in school!

So 4:25 is when he actually starts talking about the damn video you searched up for
great work
very educative video & conversation.

Very informative. Thank you
mine goes in a septic tank and gets sucked up by a truck every 2 years
It’s been 2 years . They suck your poop and pee yet ?
I always had this concern about waste water. Water just wonderful element that amazed me. Thanks to those who care about it.
I didnt know the Detroit River was so important for Utah's water. Thank you Detroit.
How much does it cost to built this sewage system?
Great video - very well done
Thank u Lord there are people out there who takes care of this environment. Happy to take a dump with ease.
The stuff they are saying you shouldn't do is COMMON SENCE. There really are way to many uneducated people in this world and also people that generally just don't care.. Sad world we live in and is the reason the world is in the state its it.
@Frosty-273 sense not sence but yes I agree
But what about cleaning chemicals??? And laundry detergent etc
Good video. Although it's not much comfort knowing chlorine isn't needed for wastewater yet it is added along with the poison fluoride to your DRINKING WATER!!!

why wasnt throw up mentioned ?
Thanks for making the idea of drinking waste water a little bit worse...
So...... Where else are these facilities? Because I live in Massachusetts.
So after I clean my
Floor with disinfectant for toilets where should I pour it ?
Very cool
Good information
great video, and very informative.. thanx
My dad works at KC they’ve done tests and they’ve shown the flushable wipes are flushable
Hello, may I have the permission to use some of the clips in this video for my project? Thank you in advanced.
What is the name of the song that starts @4:10?!??! I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS SONG SINCE LIKE FOREVER!! HELP SOMEONE PLEASE!??
Wait 1 or 2 hours and I will find the song. Just wait
Tom Varga for reals though? YAY
It's the instrumental version of the song "Clocks" by Coldplay
where i can find this version??
Now I want to drink water :P
You know that’s shit right..?
Hello? Can someone tell me the name of the piano piece at 0:50???
How does the sewage drain have the momentum to push the water so far? My house is miles and miles away from any treatment plant!
They slope downwards. The water travels by gravity. If its to far, or you live lower than the treatment facility then they have lift stations( holes in the ground that collect and pump it up hill)
thank u for the useful information
I live in California, but I wondered where I could take the used cooking oil to dispose.
where are we supposed to put our used toothpaste then, the trash?
good point
Thanks for clarifying what TP is.. confidently thought it abbreviated for toothpaste hehe
Isnt the garbage for TP?
This was my homework twice this year.
+Bini Heart same, do you go to apex
maybe...
For Fox Sake I go to apex
In the UK all drains are separated as it is illegal to have stormwater ajd wastewater in the same sewer as are sewers.
So is all the water we flush away or that we shower away reused or is I️t gone forever?
Ok I watched one video on my recommended, and now my whole feed is how water treatment works 💀
Great video! They should make it law that EVERYONE learns this and has to pass a written test.
How can the water we drink be pur into plastic container for sell?
We do it's called Pepsi max
👌Great video
i’m now going to be more aware of this, thank you!
so you're telling me that the water i drink has been in some else's body, at one point?
what did the lady say at the end ?
Rain barrel got me in trouble.. not allowed to collect rainwater even to help relieve storm drains.
How many elements we receive per day? Animal cells, plant cells, organ cells or robotic cells bacteria and human cells.
Although some people have septic tanks
I live in Mexico. Did they send all of my water into the Detroit River?
DETROIT WHAT
DETROIT WHAT
DETROIT W-

Wow I didn’t know that Canadian water went to the Detroit river!
MagicalBread lol this is a joke i think. but if you actually didn't know that canada is right on the detroit river. then you are brain dead. but if you are joking then good job
So when I flush down the toilet here in Norway, the water will at some point «get in the detroit river»?
Lol .. nope it will be treated to your treatment centre to were ever your main sewer pipes are connected to
Great content
🚽🛀🛁🚿🚿 cool video..
very usefull, good video thanks!!!
What about the shower? Soaps, shampoos, sunscreens, lotions, hair products, and countless skin products…
So is it safe to drink this wastewater..?
Waste water to recycled water .. yes it's safe
Super content ! Thanks!
capturing rain is illegal in many areas
Agent Office how on earth can it be illegal to capture rain?
richcampoverde the city takes ownership

thank u for the useful information .......great jop
What if my city doesn't have a Detroit river?
