sewer pipeline or sewerage pipeline
Would one say:
The sewer pipelines are old and need to be replaced. or ...
The sewerage pipelines are old need o be replaced
additionally:
The sewer infrastructure ...
The sewerage infrastructure
any help?
Solution 1:
A sewer is
An artificial, usually underground conduit for carrying off sewage or rainwater.
so a sewer pipeline is a slightly redundant term, only necessary to distinguish a sewer pipeline from some other kind of sewer.
Sewerage is
- A system of sewers.
- Removal of waste materials by means of a sewer system.
- Sewage.
so unless you have the third meaning fixed in other parts of your conversation it again seems unnecessary.
You could call it a sewage pipe
Liquid and solid waste carried off in sewers or drains.
in the same way as you might have a water pipe or a gas pipe. Infrastructure is mush word that serves no purpose here. I myself would just go with sewer:-
The sewers are old and need replacing.
Solution 2:
A sewer is an underground channel for taking away waste water. So a sewer pipeline is an underground pipeline that serves as a sewer (or perhaps a pipe that connects directly to the sewer).
Sewerage is the whole drainage system that uses sewers. So you never need to use the word infrastructure; you can just say sewerage. A sewerage pipeline can be any part of the sewerage system, so it is more general than sewer pipeline.
