Abstract
Sewerage system is the significant infrastructural component of society which collects wastewater from various areas/localities and conveys the same toward the sewage treatment plant. Sewer line is the basic unit occurring repeatedly in design process of sewerage network. Huge amount of investment is required for the construction and maintenance of the sewerage system which includes cost of sewer pipe, cost of excavation, cost of manhole, etc. The reduction in the cost of sewer lines results in substantial savings in the total capital cost. In this paper, Swamee algorithm was used to design the cost-effective sewer line by determining the cost function and optimal solutions. Manning equation was used to obtain the set of feasible diameter, head loss, etc.
