Of the German sewage Walk

• Walk on the German sewage

Just recently I returned from Europe, this trip for me was a childhood dream and she lived up to expectations.

20% of sewage in Berlin - obschesplavnaya system kanalyuga with livnevki eaten and during heavy rains kakahi through the overflow chamber do not go to the treatment plant and in the river. So the old collectors have built new sewage separate.

Translation of the official "reklamki" Berlin sewer:

"... for making large flows between 1906-1911 was constructed (building against flooding rainwater) 4, 5-channel kms (apparently after open the underground part) to Spree. It has a 12-meter walls against flooding and stored in the collector mixed sewerage 2 * 2 ".

The idea collector should end at the Frederick Bridge and go into the Spree.

So it looks the waterfront:

And inside (photos of a certain industrial photographer)

By kanalyuga land stretches infinitely long straight tunnel, which is sometimes replaced by turns, sometimes in the upper part has a ceremonial vylaznye camera.

Podklyuchka the left, then what happiness!

The tunnel ends with (or rather, begins) of the overflow chamber of 12 meters, which is written above. There we have not reached my fault. In fact - it livnivy collector for sewage, with showers rainwater from sewage get into the tunnel, the flow goes to the river.

This is a long endless tunnel went the other way, until we ran into a "system of the eye" ....

The right side of the rim peregrozhdena, water can only get there when the wave collector. Why do this?

Type in the opposite direction.

In the front wall outlet with a shiny stainless steel railing. Is that the carpet is not enough. In the course of such outputs is found not small, upstairs there is a spiral staircase, the depth is difficult to assess, but ... deep in general.
