For instance, many industries have migrated from manual handling of the contaminated waste and other dirty materials from their system as this would be dangerous to the lives of their clients and the customers. Vacuum collectors does well in the ships, yachts, ferries and passenger ships. The vacuum collection system is efficient and inexpensive alternative to the traditional method of drainage system where wastes are disposed off on the surface of the water.

The vacuum collection system acts on the air pressure principle to transport wastewater and wastes. Basins and toilet bowls are the main parts of the drainage system of the whole collection system and they are directly connected to the piping. The difference in pressure between the atmosphere and the vacuum piping opens the valve and forces the forces the sewage into the main vacuum to the collection tank. The sewage remains within the tank until it accumulates to levels that can be discharged to on-board treatment plants.
