I'd like to expand tagging of wastewater treatment plants by adding in clarifiers and digesters to the man_made=wastewater_plant wiki page.
This came about as I was editing an area with a wastewater treatment facility. I didn't know what the various parts of the facility were called. A friend who works in GIS for the counties wastewater division helped me with the terminology for these objects. The two objects are 1. Clarifiers https://www.dropbox.com/s/k87y9sf144xxylv/clarifier.png?dl=0 2. Digesters https://www.dropbox.com/s/q8jxmgvs8heb314/digester.png?dl=0 According to Wikipedia, clarifiers are settlement tanks that continuously remove sediment from the wastewater. [1] Digesters use a process called anaerobic digestion is used to breakdown sewage sludge. [2] since anaerobic digester is used in other processes, I'd like to keep it simple and just call them digesters. For tagging, I'd to suggest the two tags. man_made=clarifier (used 28 times) man_made=digester (anaerobic used 3 times, including one misspelling) I'm not sure if clarifier and digester are what the British call them, if someone knows, please let me know.
