Discharging it into the waste slurry tank is of course very convenient – it can be discharged directly. However, it is indeed not easy to clean it, and moreover, the frequency of maintenance for the submersible pumps in the waste slurry tank may be high, resulting in more work required for maintenance. As for pipes, this type of setup is relatively rare; at least I haven’t seen it before. With pipes, the main issue is temperature as well as blockages in the pipes. The discharge of slurry isn’t continuous but rather intermittent, and if the pipes aren’t cleaned thoroughly after each use, they can get blocked quite easily.
