Those are not septic tanks. Those tanks will store the waste generated when the train is below 30 kph, and once the train crosses 30 kph, the collected waste will be discharged on the tracks. This mechanism is present on the older LHB coaches too. The proper functioning of the mechanism is suspect though. A couple of times I have seen waste being discharged on the tracks from AK Rajdhani while it had halted at BVI.
