Hazards associated with sewage.

Adelaide Sewage clean ups are a specialist job. Raw sewage contains large amounts of bacteria which carry a plethora of diseases such as:

Campylobacteriosis
Cryptosporidiosis
Escherichia coli
Diarrhea
Gastroenteritis
Giardiasis
Hepatitis A

These diseases can be very dangerous and in some circumstances it can cause loss of life.

One of the biggest concerns is exposure to harmful gases, such as methane and hydrogen sulfide. Though methane is not generally considered a toxic gas, its flammability makes it extremely dangerous to handle, particularly in high concentrations.

Likewise, hydrogen sulfide is highly flammable. Hydrogen sulfide is produced when bacteria break down plant and animal material, often in stagnant waters (such as sewage water). If not handled appropriately, hydrogen sulfide can cause life-threatening symptoms.

Other Hazards associated with sewage.

How does Sewage leak and contaminate?

The most common source of sewage entering your Adelaide property is from floor drains, shower drains and toilets backing up which can be caused by clogged drain lines or heavy rains.The severity and methods utilised in each Sewage Contamination Clean-up is determined on a case-by-case basis, affected by the severity and category of the spill. Sewage spills are categorised by 3 categories each with their own set of pre-determined and successful clean up methodologies.

Sewage Contamination – Class A

Clean water. Although not considered sewage, clean water can become hazardous if left in contact with surfaces.

Sewage Contamination – Class B

Grey water is generally considered unsanitary and can cause illness to humans and can be caused by washing machine, toilet, waterbed or dishwasher leaks. These spills should be remediated as a priority to ensure contamination and pollutants are kept to a minimum.

Grey water damage is intensified by the time taken to remedy the spill and temperature of the building and location the spill has occurred in. It should be noted that if Class B is not treated within 48 hours, it may transform into a Class C spill.

Sewage Contamination – Class C

Black water or sewage contains pathogens making it a serious health and bio-hazard contamination. Failure to immediately remediate will result in all materials such as flooring, walling and concrete needing to be removed. Black water can consist of, but is not limited to, sewage that contains urine and faeces, chemical waste, medical waste or sea water, river, water or ground surface water containing silt and organic matter.
