Sewage and waste treatment

We all know our daily routine. We go to the toilet and we through out the garbage. These artifacts very quickly disappear from our eyes and our mind. But what does happen to the junk and body extracts of millions of people?



In some countries they are taken to collection and treatment centres purified and reused this action is called waste management

Solid or household waste treatment is usually dumped in landfills

One usage of household waste is the manufacture of compost as a fertilizer

Water treatment and purification before supplying to the household pipes is also a major concern

And after supplying the water somebody has to remove the waste and purify it so there are sewerage treatment plants


Another option for water treatment is the use of plants and microorganisms in constructed wetlands


To a cleaner and healthier world

Eilat, Israel stock photography

Winter is here so I think it is a good time to talk about Eilat with a selection of our Eilat stock photographs from our archives at www.PhotoStock-Israel.com

Eilat is Israel's southernmost city, a busy port as well as a popular resort, located at the northern tip of the Red Sea, on the Gulf of Eilat. The city is part of the Southern Negev Desert, at the southern end of the Arava. The city is adjacent to the Egyptian village of Taba to the south, the Jordanian port city of Aqaba to the east, and within sight of Saudi Arabia to the south-east, across the gulf.

Eilat's arid desert climate is moderated by proximity to a warm sea. Temperatures often exceed 40 °C (104 °F) in summer, and 18 °C (64 °F) in winter, while water temperatures range between 20 and 26 °C (68 and 79 °F). The city's beaches, nightlife and desert landscapes make it a popular destination for domestic and international tourism.







Eilat is well known for it's underwater marine life
