Solution

The correct answer is "septic".

A septic system first takes wastewater to a tank where grease and oils rise to the top, and solids settle to the bottom where bacteria decompose them. This process is part of the primary treatment in a septic system. The terms "night soil" and "sewage" refer to the waste that is treated, not the system itself.
