Just make sure you keep your water pipes separate from the sewage pipes or your citizens will be drinking poo smoothies in no time.

Hmmm, water pipes dont show up on screenshots from some reason. I just zig zagged them.
It seems it doesnt work 100%, eventually it looks like it starts spreading out. Unless I can improve it somehow.
This shouldn't work. If it does than it is a bug most likely. You might see much less problems, since the water is purified (-85%) but there is still pollution in there and it will get sucked up by the pumps (or should).
The SS is kinda blurry when I zoom in, is that treatment / water pump / water pump /treatment / ...?

Yeah,
It sucks the pollution up, it stops it spreading. the water pumps just act as vacuums sucking all the dirty water up. Theres zero drinking water pollution as the water pumps are just vacuums and arent connected to the drinking water pipes.

Oh, I got it a bit wrong then, this way it is ok...as a mechanic
You basically used the water physics they have in the game and played around the pollution problem that way...nice find lol, it is so simple, yet so elegant. I will certainly not use it, but I appreciate what you did, you win teh internetz today!
Next thing, they introduce not only water pump/drain volume but pipe volume too, so you will have to construct miles of pipes in order to fit all the poo in
Edit:
All we need it terraforming tools (there is a mod for that I think), you dig a huge hole and pump all the sewage there. Poor China though! xD

I would love it if the sewage pipes could be place anywhere and not just on the water's edge. then we could make our own reservoirs.
Can you pump out treated water, then suck it up and treat it again in a cycle? Or even just treat it twice or thrice before pumping it out to sea? Isn't Smirnoff vodka triple filtered?
