They provide adequate circulation and exchange of water; harbor beneficial aerobic (and often anaerobic) microbes, promote gaseous exchange; mechanically filter out large solid wastes (generally in a pre-filter arrangement) and their sumps are often equipped with contactors, dosers, meters, and skimmers.
