Abstract
A residence (,) discharges its waste water into a septic tank (,). A pump (,) draws waste from the tank's liquid layer and feeds it to a distiller (,) as distiller feed. The distiller (,) divides the distiller feed into distillate and distiller residue. The distiller residue is returned to the septic tank (,), whereas the distillate is reused or discharged into a leach field. In either case, the adverse environmental effects of leach-field use are largely eliminated.
