A system designed for the evacuation of waste from a vessel’s sanitation system. These often include a pump, hoses, fittings, and potentially a storage container for temporary holding before proper disposal. As an example, a boat owner might use this to empty their boat’s blackwater tank at a designated pump-out station.
The utilization of such a system is crucial for maintaining environmental health and adhering to maritime regulations concerning waste disposal. Historically, improper waste disposal from vessels contributed to water pollution, damaging ecosystems and impacting public health. Modern systems offer a more responsible and compliant method for handling onboard sewage.
