Liquid waste treatment apparatus

Abstract

A fluid conduit with layered and partial covering material thereon is disclosed. The fluid conduit may be used for processing and treatment of fluids which must be treated to remove materials so that the resultant treated fluid may be reused and/or returned to the earth and particularly to the water table. The fluid conduit may be of many forms and types and may have attached thereto and configured thereon covering material in partial form and a selected number of layers. The fluid conduit may be a septic pipe of smooth wall, of corrugated form, and/or of any form of cross-sectional configuration including circular, elliptical, rectangular, triangular, or any other geometric shape. The fluid conduit may be used in combination with conduit in a drainage field or leaching system usually associated with a septic tank or septic system.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An apparatus comprising:
 a conduit having an interior and an exterior, the conduit comprising a sidewall portion defining one or more passageways;   a fabric layer at least partially surrounding the exterior of the conduit; and   a layer of coarse material disposed adjacent to the fabric layer.
