16 | Darwen | The sludge from the precipitation tanks is allowed to flow into a large lagoon formed in the deep bed of coarse gravel on which the sewage works are situated. A great deal of liquefaction takes place in this bed, thus causing the disappearance of the greater part of the sludge. The beds were originally of coke, but owing to the diminution caused by the breaking down of the coke, hard vitrified clinker has been substituted. |
