Explanation:

Conservancy system

  • Definition: In the conservancy system, waste is collected from individual households using buckets or carts, and then transported to a central disposal or treatment location.

  • Usage: This system was common in older or less-developed areas before the development of more advanced water-based sewer systems. It is labor-intensive and often used in areas where water carriage systems are not feasible.

 Additional Information

  1. Hygienic system

    • This term is more general and refers to a system that ensures proper sanitation, but it doesn't specifically refer to waste collection via buckets or carts.

  2. Water carriage system

    • This is a more modern system in which waste is carried by water through pipes to a central treatment facility. It is commonly used in most urban areas today.

  3. Bucket system

    • While the bucket system involves the use of buckets to carry waste, the correct term for this method is the conservancy system, not just the "bucket system." The bucket system is a component of the broader conservancy system.
