TRANSCRIPT
Introduction / disclaimerThis project list is regularly updated by the GTZ ecosan team, but it is never going to be a "perfect" document. Please treat all information with care and double-check any important numbers.The purpose of having this project list is simply to have a rough overview of what is going on with ecosan projects worldwide.Please do send us any additions or corrections about ecosan projects that you know of ([email protected]).

- Before adding a new entry check if a similar entry does not already exist. Please avoid overlapping of projects under different names!- Type of project to add: sustainable sanitation / ecosan projects with reuse of some or all treated waste streams being possible (even if not fully achieved, e.g. UDDTs where urine is infiltrated are included in the list); domestic sanitation; working projects- Do not add: small research projects; industrial wastewater reuse; non-reuse projects
- Clump projects together if relevant: according to type of project (e.g. school, household, emergency sanitation, rural areas, urban areas etc.) that belong to the same implementers or overall programme; or according to work done by a single organisation etc; or if a pilot project is then followed up by up-scaling, merge the pilot project with upscaling project
- Enter information on changes made in the excel sheet and any source of changes (e.g. an email, an article, a telephone conversation).
Detailed project list
Project title: - Should be concise, informative, with the name of the place and if possible, the province/state. - Include type of technology in the title; e.g. instead of 'ecosan toilet', tell the type of toilet, e.g. 'urine diversion dehydration toilet'- If possible, include if school toilet or household toilet and if rural, urban or peri-urban.- Avoid abbreviations in the title (e.g UDDT), except for abbreviations of a project which should be put in brackets after the name of the project written out in full, e.g SWAMP, ROSA etc. - Avoid adding names of organisations in the title since it is a bias against other organisations which have not been mentioned- Mention reuse in a title if there is reuse of greywater or is a decentralised treatment system in which there is reuse. Dont mention reuse in the title if only toilets (e.g. UDDT, composting toilets etc) have been built.- For all SuSanA case studies, the title should be exactly the same as that of the case study.- Make the project title background colour for a new entry green.
Type of project:Explain abit more about the project in relation to the title if possible- what technology, where, reuse or not?City:- Only fill this in if the project is in a city or townAddress:- This is the project location, NOT the address of the supporting organisations.Project period:- This is the start project year (with month if notable) and the end project year.Previous and current phase:- This is details of the previous and current phases, e.g. Split up information about start of planning, start of construction etc.
Project size and # of served inhab.: - If only number of households is known, make an assumption about the average household size from the country list given below and calculate the total number of people served based on this assumption. If a country is not in the list, find out average household size from the internet and add it to the country list below. If the country list has been used to make an assumption, make a note of this assumption in brackets. Also write this assumption in columns G and J of the 'sortable by country' sheet.- Project size includes no. of sanitary installations and number of users.- Convert number of users for public toilets etc. to an average daily number of users. (i.e. not a total for a month or an event etc.)
Type of settlement:- Generally refers to urban area, rural area or peri-urban area, and can be explained further e.g. resort, school, prisonGeneral conditions:Background information about the place, conditions before the project and/or project backgroundWaste streams:- What goes into the sanitary unit? E.g. Blackwater or excreta or is it urine separate from faeces or brown water,etc.Technologies applied:- This is a listing of the different technologies without any details (except perhaps which waste stream they are relevant for)- Do not just write ecosan, write the name of the exact sanitary units and technologies used.Cost:- Cost per sanitary unit is the most useful cost item for people using the database. - Convert local currency to euros or dollars.Technical data and design criteria: - Include important details of the design of the various components of the sanitary units and treatment processesName and date of actual comment:- Fill in name of person who filled in the information or added any updates, their long-term email, date of adding information, and source if relevant (e.g. Email, website, article, conversation etc.)Project title:- Link the project title in this summary list with an equal sign to the project title in the detailed project list, so that any editing done to a project title in the project list changes in this summary list automatically (i.e. Don't type in the project title here manually)
Estimated No. of Users: - These are actual beneficiaries, NOT planned beneficiaries. - Fill in column I about number of users and if information about household size and number of sanitary units is relevant, fill in columns G and H. Link column I with an equal sign to column E.Under comments, write if any assumptions have been used, eg. if household size has been taken from the country list
German TC participation - This includes:GTZ, Kfw, inwent, BGR, CIM, DED
summary 2 for website(summary list uploaded on the website)
- This is linked directly to the 'sortable by country' sheet and only has to be updated before the next uploading to the website.
- The project that have been made into susana case studies have to be linked to the case studies with a hyperlink. A couple of SuSanA case studies are not in this database, e.g. Kalyani, India and Hamburg waterless urinals because Kalyani is a research project and Hamburg doesn't have a reuse element respectively.

technologies applied
Single-vault, urine diversion dehydration toilets
Fertiliser: Urine is poured into the irrigation channels at time of irrigating. Faeces is removed from the vault after it is full and tilled into the fields
technical data and design criteria
The UDDT is a single-vault, two-holed, squatting toilet. The toilet slab is a metal plate or a Chinese imported plastic mould. The urine is collected in 20 L containers. When a container is full, it is used as per need as fertiliser.After each faecal use, loam balls are used for anal cleansing and ash (produced from burning manure for cooking) is added for dehydration. It is estimated that one vault will take about 6 months to fill up and most of the faecal matter would be dry. After this, it would either be spread directly on to the fields or first mixed with more ash. Spreading time depends on agricultural activity.
experiences and lessons learnt
- The UDDT is a part of a complete production cycle. Home-made soap is used for hygiene. Urine and faeces are used to fertilise the cotton crop: the cotton is used to make mattresses, the seeds are used to make oil, the oil is then used for cooking or to make soap, and soap is used in the toilet, and the remains from seed pressing are used as fish feed in the local fish pond- i.e. complete cycle! - People are especially pleased with the lack of smell in the toilets.

Single-vault, urine diversion dehydration toilets
Used as fertiliser by caretaker or surrounding farmers: Urine is poured into the irrigation channels at time of irrigating. Faeces is tilled into the fields
The UDDT is a single-vault, two-holed, squatting toilet. The toilet slab is Chinese imported plastic mould. The urine is collected in containers. After each faecal use, loam balls are used for anal cleansing and sand is added for dehydration. When the vault is full the faecal matter is spread directly on to the fields or first mixed with ash. Spreading time depends on agricultural activity.
- Maintenance is critical in the toilets because so many children use them. Pictures have been put up on the use of the toilets, but sometimes there are issues such as when the children sit wrongly and thus they use the faecal and urine holes for opposite purposes. The toilets have to be cleaned and maintained by the caretaker or it becomes a problem.

Partial subsidy by DACAAR
17 toilets contructed, one for each household. Assuming 6 people per household (from country list), about 100 beneficaries.
Typical sanitation system is a raised single-vault latrine, which can be emptied when full, or a pit latrine, which is not emptied. Approximately 35 % of the population in Herat are already applying excreta on the fields. After emptying, excreta is either buried or stored in a heap covered with earth for an extended period of time before it is applied on the field. The main risk of disease transmission is therefore on the men who empty the latrines. Main reasons for having a latrine were: visual shelter from the public, isolating dirt in one place, clean (compared to bushes), fertiliser. Vault latrines are usually used for depositing all kinds of dirt from e.g. sweeping (but not food waste) because it helps to keep smell reduced. Smell and emptying of latrines were mentioned as adverse effects.

Faecal matter used for fertiliser. Urine diverted into soak pit, with plan to use the soil as fertiliser
Nadira on 07.09.09 from paper by Bregnhog et al. on ecosan experiences ([email protected])
No
No
Design of double-vault latrine with urine collection was developed based on the Vietnamese toilet design. The latrine has a slab with two sets of holes and two vaults, to be used one at a time. The twounits share a common urine collection system. Unlike the Vietnamese system, urine is led to asoak pit outside the latrine. The idea is that the soil in the soakpit could collect most of thenutrients from the urine and be used as fertiliser regularly.
- All of the respondents supported the method of recycling nutrients. However, for religious reasons, it was considered problematic to mix urine (considered unclean) with water (considered clean). The diverted urinecould therefore not be applied by sprinkling on the fields.Feedback of followup one year after construction was as follows:- The toilets were being used by all household members and the users found them to be an improvement over their old type in terms of being of a good size, not as smelly as the old latrines, and the numbers of flies were less. The separation of urine from faeces seemed to be working as it should.Bregnhoj, H et al.

Afghan Development Association (ADA)
Afghan Development Association (ADA)
Uruzgan office has submitted plan for making 162 further public UDDTs in Dehrawud district over the next three years (2010 - 2012). Implementation will depend on budget availability.
40 public UDDTs made, serving 12,500 people.ADA is working in 14 other provinces and has implemented public UDDTs in other provinces. The number of these projects is not known however.
Norwegian Church Aid (NCA)
Uruzgan, located in south-central Afghanistan, is one of the poorest of the 34 Afghan provinces. Once famous for its fruit and horticultural sector, the province today suffers to a high extent from the past 30 years of war and armed conflict. Most of the people in Uruzgan still live in traditional Pashtun societies and work in farming. Due to an almost non-existing public education system, close to a 100 per cent of the women and 90 per cent of the men are illiterate. The local provincial and district governments face great difficulties in meeting public demand of public goods and services.
People either rely on open defecation or use a local dry toilet. The local dry toilet is a raised vault in which excreta are deposited. The toilets are smelly and attract flies. The reuse of the excreta collected in the toilets is a traditional practice. The excreta is mixed with soil and in the summer it is dried in the sun for one week; in the winter it is dried for one month. This is done before the time of cultivation and the excreta mixed soil is spread on to the fields before cultivation. In a similar manner, animal manure and household biowaste are also collected and reused. In the villages, every household has a specific site where they collect this material before using it on the fields.
Separated urine and faeces respectively
Single-vault UDDTs
No
Faeces are reused on the agricultural lands as per traditional practices of excreta reuse- faeces is mixed with soil and dried in the sun for about one week in the summer and one month in the winter.The farmers are digging out the soil where the urine is being soaked outside the UDDT and spreading this soil also on the fields.
Toilet cost: $500 for materials given by ADA. These materials are cement (for bottom base of toilet, stone masonry), toilet door, window, pipes, 3 beams, sub-structure (faeces chamber) door, readymade concrete slab.Community contribution: labour, superstructure (make of mud or brick)
The UDDT is a single-vault, squatting toilet. The toilet slab is made of a moulded concrete slab with a trapezoidal hole (which helps to show the right direction of sitting) for faeces deposition and a urine diverting channel leading from the front of the faeces hole. This channel drains into a pipe running down along the outside wall of the UDDT. The urine flows in the channel, down through this pipe and soaks in the soil outside the UDDT. The sub-structure is made of stone masonry with a concrete base and has a door to be able to remove the excreta.
People use the UDDT properly. They are given training about making the toilet and then they also know how it works. The UDDT fits well with traditional practices and the faeces (and even urine soaked soil) are in high demand.

Urine diversion dehydration toilets in two villages as a part of the Clean Village Project, in Injeel District, Herat Province and Chaghcaharan City, Ghor Province
Khowaja Surmaq Village, Injeel District, Herat Province andWajgona Village, Chaghcharan City, Ghor Province
35 single-vault UDDTs and about 100 double-vault UDDTs made for households, with estimated 810 beneficiaries (based on assumption of household size from country list). Also 5 public toilets (double-vault UDDTs) made for men (beneficiaries unknown).
Nearly 50,000 children under the age of five die each year in Afghanistan as a result of diarrhoeal diseases. Limited access to safe water (43% average) and very low coverage of appropriate sanitary means of excreta disposal (12% average) as well as poor hygiene practices contribute to this. As a part of International Year of Sanitation initiatives, UNICEF and MRRD have committed to prioritise hygiene and sanitation and will promote model sanitation villages in each of the 34 provinces. What is a model sanitary village: All households have a sanitary toilets and effectively use; no open defecation practices in the village; all family members practice proper hand washing and other key personal hygiene; all families have access and use safe drinking water throughout the year; community school have water and sanitation facilities and well maintained; WATSAN facilities are available and maintained well; village hand pump mechanic or Water system maintenance mechanic is available and supporting; general cleanliness maintained in the village including soiled waste management; CDC or WATSAN committee exists and mange WATSAN interventions; hygiene practices are monitored and sustained; CDC monitor health impact and other indicators such as incidents of diahorea, skin diseases and other water born and water related diseases.
VWO is making ecosan toilets as the chosen sanitary toilets in the two target villages.

30 – 40% of the families use the urine as fertiliser in their gardens and 85% of the households use the dried faeces as soil conditioner on the land.
$150 per toilet for substructure. VWO pays for the cost of the substructure and the households have to make the superstructure.
The UDDT is a double-vault, squatting toilet. The toilet slab is made of a moulded concrete slab with a trapezoidal hole (which helps to show the right direction of sitting) for faeces deposition and a urine diverting channel leading from the front of the faeces hole. The urine is collected via a pipe in a container. The substructure is made of stone masonry.
A ventilation pipe leads out from the faeces collection vault to above the roof to reduce the smell and dry the faeces.- In Herat, VWO has established a Women Latrine Productive Centres (WLPC) where women have been trained to make the concrete products needed for the construction of the UDDTs. - In the beginning single-vault UDDTs were made but they faced problems with these. Then double-vault UDDTs were advocated. At first the villagers did not accept the double-vault toilets because they take more land, but after receiving awareness about the advantages of it and using the dry wastes as fertiliser, they agreed and now the villagers have more interest to have the UDDTs in their houses.

Kabul, situated on the Kabul River is the capital of Afghanistan. It is the largest city with a population of more than 3 million people. Once a very beautiful city, it now bears the scars of continuous wars,which have almost, wrecked this great city. Water and sanitation services are the worst hit. The few old toilet complexes in the city are either inadequate or non-functional. The public places are in great need of toilet complexes and also baths, especially where the neighbourhood lacks individual sanitation facilities.
A team consisting of senior functionaries of Sulabh visited Kabul in October, 2005 for a meeting with the Hon'ble Mayor of Kabul, the concerned officials of Kabul Municipality and the Indian Ambassador at Kabul, H.E. Mr. Rakesh Sood. The Hon'ble Mayor expressed his desire to get Sulabh toilet complexes constructed in Kabul. Subsequently, Engineers of the Kabul Municipality and the technical team of Sulabh conducted a joint survey. Five sites were identified for constructing toilet complexes with biogas digesters.

The biogas is used directly to light gas lamps outside the toilet complex and to fuel a gas stove which is used by the guard for cooking. The gas is also used to produce power via a generator that converts the gas to electricity, which is used for the lights inside the complex.The treated effluent is used as irrigation water.
Biogas complex design:- Two biogas digesters of size 30-40 m3 for each complex.- Built min. 1m below the ground to protect in winter.- Pour-flush toilets connected to the biogas unit.- Fresh water for toilet use is pumped from underground.- Handwashing and bath water goes into soakage well.- For startup added 10% manure, quickens up the process.- 20 people were trained for maintenance - 18 for cleaning, 2 for technical maintenance. These two people are plumbers. They were sent to India to see the complete process in operation (since at that time biogas production had not begun in Kabul). They learnt about all the steps, piping system, leakage control. Two technical people are not enough, need to have more.- The gas amount reduces in winter (but don’t know amount of gas production)Article on SISSO webpage, 'Construction, operation and maintenance of community toilet complexes in Kabul, Afghanistan': http://www.sulabhinternational.org/pages/sulabh_afghanistan.php

The aim of the toilet facility is to provide the children safe, odour-free, and in winter freeze-free sanitation, and to protect the ground and drainage water from infiltration of human excreta. Although in Armenia the winters are very cold, the children had to go a rather long way to visit the previously bad smelling latrine.

Reuse of urine as a fertiliser for the local farmers. Dehydrated faeces will be used as soil conditioner after it is ready.
For each toilet there are two easily accessible faeces vaults sealed with a concrete floor. The vaults with a volume of 1 m³ each are used alternately in a 2.5-year rhythm and are filled by about 2/3 of their volume only.The floor of the vaults has a slope of 1% for the drainage of residual leachate which is connected to a sewer leading to an open drainage.
Each faeces vault has an opening to the urine tank room. Airfrom that room together with equalised air pressure from the urine tank is evacuated by one common ventilation pipe leading to the roof where it is equipped with a wind-driven ventilator of 30 cm in diameter (see fig. 8). With this design, only one ventilation pipe for the vaults became necessary compared to former designs where every vault had one
- After realisation of the ecosan project, no cases of helminths were found.- Ecological sanitation works well in regions without central water supply or without basic sanitation.- Transportation and handling of large urine canisters (2 m³) has turned out to be difficult.- For an adequate design of a school UDDT, the actual urine and faeces volumes to be expected should be investigated in advance taking into account country-specific nutrition habits.SuSanA case study, 'Urine diversion dehydration toilets in a rural school, Hayanist' (see website below)

Urine planned to be collected and trialled for reuse in local agricultural land close to the school
Urine diversion dehydration toilets (UDDTs) included in the newly constructed development at the Maryborough Educational Centre (high school)
The installation was operational in early 2007, with reporting of results throughout 2007 and early 2008. The research phase of the project was completed in late 2008.
Six urine-separating composting toilets, two waterless urinals, Rotaloo UDDT (Australian manufacturer) and Uridan waterless urinals as well as conventional flush toilets were installed to serve a school population of 1500 students and staff.
The project was funded by the Smart Water Fund, an initiative of the Victorian Government and the Victorian water industry supporting the development of water conservation, recycling and sustainable biosolids solutions. As well as support and contribution from City West Water, CSIRO, Department of Human Services (DHS), Environment Protection Authority (EPA), Melbourne Water Corporation, Monash University and University of NSW, Bensons Property Group and Demaine Partnership.

Reuse trial - urine collected for trial and reuse in agricultural application, dehydrated faeces is also planned for reuse in farming application.
The toilet block containing the UDDT was designed and constructed a long distance from the main school buildings which became a problem as high school graffitti and vandalism to the toilets meant that the urine collected couldn't be reused when vandals put cigarette butts down the urine diversion segment making the urine unusable for reuse

20 Gustavsberg UD flush toilets will be installed. Each household has a bladder to collect urine installed under the house.
Odour problems were caused by hot weather and poor ventilation combined with a gas leakage through the bladder walls. The solution was to trial an alternative storage vessel: We are currently trialling an alternative storage vessel at Lot 105 to minimise the odours. The ‘waffle pod’ is a rigid walled 320 L container that can beretrofitted under the house using the existing plumbing. This vessel is expected to be completely impermeable to ammonia and most other gases that give urine its “off” odour.

Urine diverting flush toilets and grey water recycling system with rural communities at Kinglake, Victoria
2009: Planning, community consultation on installing UDT 2010: Start of installation2010: Start of operation
Rural community of 70 households, 30 households have taken the offer of free provision of UDT that will service approximately 90 residents
The rural Kinglake area was devasted by bushfires in early 2009 with 75 homes destroyed in the area and 20 fatalities. The community is in the process of rebuilding homes and the local water authority has funded residents to install UDT toilets as an alternative. 30 households have responded to incentives and as of early 2010 UDTs and grey water recycling systems will begin to be installed.

Yes
UD flush toilets, waterless urinals, 2 separate pipe network for urine and other wastewater, fibreglass urine collectiona and storage tanks, compost filters, constructed wetlands, rainwater infiltration ditches.
The reuse of urine is not yet carried out because the Upper Austrian legislation prohibits its application in agriculture. At the moment the composting process of the compost filter material is not functional due to optimisation works. In the future, nutrient recycling (through use of urine, compost and reeds from the constructed wetlands) and on-site infiltration of the treated brownwater and greywater shall be realised in cooperation with research partners.Alternative waste water concept: 510,000 EuroTotal costs for solarCity are 190,000,000 Euro
Urine-diversion flush toilets:Ceramics. Bowl separated into urine and a faeces section. Used in sitting position because a urine pipe valve is activated by the user’s weight on the toilet seat to allow the collection of pure urine (without flush water). The valve closes when the user stands up, so that the flushing water does not enter the urine pipe but drains off through the faeces outlet in the rear. Two different flush buttons available: 1-3 L for urine flush and 6 L for faeces flush.Waterless urinals:- The ecosan technologies applied in this project are not yet fully mature and functional. There is a need for optimisation of the NoMix toilet design. The slightly increased demand for cleaning is acceptable. But for young children, e.g. at primary schools, the Roediger toilets are not suitable. The project at the school has had significant problems with the urine separation flush toilets for small children who find it difficult to sit back far enough for defecation. After two years in operation, the LINZ AG changed the UD flush toilets at SuSanA publication available at: http://www.susana.org/images/documents/06-case-studies/en-susana-cs-austria-linz-solar-city-2009.pdf

Urine diversion dehydration toilets tested as sustainable emergency sanitation in cyclone affected areas
Started on: 2008
Government has target of achieving 100% sanitation by 2010. UNICEF states 36% coverage of improved sanitation in 2006, govt states 60%. By 2009, less than 500 ecosan toilets built in Bangladesh. Actors in ecosan request more institutional support and affordable technologies. Climatic and geologic conditions leading to floods, a high water table and cyclones. In Nov 2007 cyclone SIDR hit the coast at 240kph. Violent storm Ayla occurred in May 2009. Many ring slab toilets flooded and superstructures and slabs damaged. The commonly used ring slab latrine, raised pit latrine and hanging latrines not safe, when flooded they are a health risk. Ventilated double pit and sand enveloped raised pit latrine also could not contain excreta in storms and floods. Faecophobic culture.

Double-vault UDDT with squatting pans. Pans cast insitu and all structures built in concrete (hence expensive) to withstand climatic events. Two large holes used for defecation, one smaller hole located between the two defecation holes for urine and anal cleansing water. Urine and beige water are infiltrated into the soil.Vault, iron cover and vent pipes face south to receive sun rays and favour the drying process of excreta.Pan not to be aligned in direction east-west (facing Mecca, Islamic belief)
- Urine combined with beige water and infiltrated into soil because population not ready to handle urine.- After the storm Ayla in 2009, it was seen that out of 21 toilets checked 17 did not have any smell. In 4 cases there were flies around the doors of the vaults because the doors were damaged by the heavy winds. Hence new doors are being designed to reduce these impacts. Most of the UDDTs were usable after the event which was not the case for most of the traditional latrines. Mazeau, A. & Delepiere, A.

A total of 25 constructed in this project.We have unique learning that is: People at primarily level (before constructing the toilets) there is a negative reaction for the UDD toilets, especially, to use urines and faeces in productive activities. But, they become easily motivated for using those in vegetable farming and fruit trees as they find tangible effects of the treated EcoSan products (Urines and faeces). It is easier to motivate people for efficiently and hygienically use, operate, maintain and manage the EcoSan toilets than

San Pedro is the central town of the municipality San Pedro. The municipality of San Pedro counts with 100.000 inhabitants. San Pedro is a rural town in the department of Santa Cruz.
The use of “pour flush latrines” and dry compost toilets (sometimes only holes in the ground) are still the most common ones. Especially since the collecting pit is very commonly kept open at the bottom, the danger of groundwater contamination and subsequently an increase in water borne diseases can be assumed.

Where UDDTs were abandoned by beneficiaries, the main reason was the bad smell and due to the lack of constant assistance especially after the construction, the unawareness of the handling and reuse of urine and faeces in agriculture. So the faeces chamber got filled up in many cases and the toilet was left abandoned.

The sanitation conditions varied between the two settlements. The government had promoted and subsidised pit latrines in the rural areas and many pit latrines were found in Paje Village. Alternatively, people there used the bushes and men often used trees and hedge fences for urinating purposes. It was found however, that concerns existed about groundwater pollution in Paje, and that in the past, boreholes had been closed because of groundwater pollution caused by pit latrines. In East and West Hanahai, on the other hand, peoplegenerally did not have any toilets and hence were practising open defecation. All three communities were generally unaware of water toilets and not skeptic towards dry toilets. However, urine and especially faecal matter were considered dirty and to be forgotten as soon as possible. Superstitions and taboos also strongly supported this attitude.

The cost of construction of the sanitation facilities was calculated for the toilets built in Paje (in 2003). The ground structure was estimated at 705 BWP (141 EUR), the urine diversion toilet pedestal (painted concrete pedestal, made locally in Paje) at 73.5 BWP (15 EUR), and the composter at 310 BWP (62 EUR).
Single-vault UDDTs: The first eight UDDTs were constructed according to a toilet design from South Africa (in April 2002). The faeces collection chamber of that model was built half or totally below ground and it was approximately 1 – 1.5 m deep. Two-thirds of the sub-structure was covered with a concrete slab which supported the super-structure; one-third was covered by a removable slab which could be lifted for emptying the chamber from the outside. This “below ground design” had some major drawbacks and is thus no longer recommended: some families had difficulty inmoving the heavy slab, especially those without male support; the depth of the chamber was inconvenient even for routine maintenance; and the Detailed experiences are documented in the SuSanA case study. In conclusion, it can be said that the UDDTs were successful where people were convinced of their benefits, where they had the need for sanitation, where they had been given financial support, and/or where they had been given long-term technical follow-up (for the toilets and for reuse activities).

Until recently sanitation was quite a low development priority for the landlocked West African nation of Burkina Faso. In the capital, Ouagadougou, only 19% of the population of 1.4 million people had access to basic sanitation (such as septic tanks, VIP latrines, pour flush latrines, sewerage, etc.) in 2006. With an annual population growth rate of around 5% it was difficult to maintain pace with growth – particularly in lowincome peri-urban areas of the city. The project location is the City of Ouagadougou, which is administratively divided into five districts: Baskuy, Bogodogo, Boulmiougou, Nongremasson, and Signoghin. Each of thesedistricts is administered by a council led by an elected mayor. The implementation of the project covers four sectors (of the total of 30 sectors) within the districts of Boulmiougou (sector 17 and 19), Nongremasson (sector 27) and Bogodogo (sector 30).To achieve the project objectives the project partners (GTZ, CREPA and ONEA) identified three major fields of activity. 1. Firstly, ecological sanitation (ecosan) systems are being developed with the users of these systems, responding to their needs and the local context. 2. Secondly, lobby work is being carried out at municipal and governmental level in order to create an enabling environment for ecosan and ensure its inclusion in legislation and future strategic plans. 3. This second field of activity is also serving to create the conditions for the third field, which is to support and promote the involvement of the local private sector in

Use of ecosan by-products (dried faeces, urine)To raise acceptance among the users (gardeners, farmers and consumers), it was decided to label the ecosan products. Thus, sanitised urine was sold in green 20-L cans labelled “birg-koom” in the local language (which means liquid fertiliser), while sanitised dried faeces are sold in bags labelled “birg-koenga” (meaning solid fertiliser).
Double vault UDDTs were designed for households with 6 to 7 members and the storage time for the faeces is about 6 to 8 months. But the two vaults of this size can normally cater for even up to 15 persons. The vaults are three bricks high (20 cm each) plus mortar between bricks. So, they have a total height of 65 cm, a width of 145 cm a length of 130 cm and nvolume of 1,220 L. To save costs, the urine diversion squatting pans (for double and single vault UDDTs) and pedestals (of box UDDTs) are made of concrete which is also easy to use and to maintain. Both pans and pedestals were purchased through local manufacturers who were identified and trained by CREPA within the project. Each household was given at The project team gave households the choice between double vault and single vault UDDTs. However, after a first assessment, it was decided to stop building single vault UDDTs, because of difficulties related to their management. Double vault UDDTs made of banco (adobe) bricks were also tested but soon removed as a technical option due to problems during the rainy period. Building the vault in local material was an attempt to reduce costs, but did not result in structures with the required resistance (despite vaults SuSanA case study 'Urban urine diversion dehydration toilets and reuse, Ouagadougou' (see website below)

For system of 3 men's urinals, 2 women's urinals and 1 UD toilet and accessories (i.e for average event size), investment cost by CREPA = $671. Costs of APLE on consumbles and operation costs per average event = $190. Income of Aple from rent charged to event organiser for units = $240.
Men's urinals: jerry can and funnel. Originally light bulb placed in funnel to prevent odor and nitrogen loss, but caused splashing so replaced by a pipe at the end of the funnel. Fiberglass urinal made for VIP events. Superstructure comprising two walls placed at an angle, attached with hinges and third side of triangle closed with a curtain. Curtain filled with sand at bottom to make more wind resistant. Women's urinals: Based on pour flush pan. Elevated platform made of wood coverd with plastic carpet, pan of fiber glass.Toilet paper is placed in a bin. Cleansing water allowed to go into urine pan. Users encouraged to use small quantities of water. - Long-term goal is that APLE should pay off investment cost to CREPA and thus own the mobile units.- Original version of women's urinal had many small holes at the exit. This was replaced by single hole because fibers in the model of with many small holes absorbed urine and smelled very bad.- During FESPACO 2007 4500L urine and 150 kg dried feces obtained from 15000 users.

Urine diversion dehydration toilets and urinals to obtain fertiliser for conservation agriculture.Ouagadougou
Construction of 1050 UDDTs and 2100 urinalsAssuming average hh size of 8 (from country list), 8,400 users for the UDDTs
A three year poject financed with EU food security money. CREPA together with INERA (The National Agriculture Research Institute) and Ministry of agriculture are implementing the project that covers 30 villages. Productive sanitation is combined with soil and water conservation techniques. The methodology this far has been: Year I: Informing and training the differennt actors on the new fertilisers, urine collection with simple urinals, participative tests with pilot farmers to show the effect of urine as a fertilisers, evaluation of tests and field visits. Year II: training on conservation agriculture techniques and urine tests at scale in all villages with farmer field schools (1/village) and individual tests (35/village), supervised by the agricultural extension officers, construction of 1050 toilets and 2100 urinal for fertiliser production. In Burkina and Niger the sanitised urine and faeces have been given local names meaning "liquid and dry fertiliser". This is a great way to get over the mental barrier and distinguish between safe and unsafe human fertiliser.

Point brought up by UNICEF Cameroun: The pilot projects carried out do not benefit from all the necessary components (materials and equipment) to allow the recipients to be able to handle and re-use the organic matter resulting from decomposition of waste water and human waste. This is a key aspect of the benefits of latrines ecological.

• The beneficiaries choose their preferred type of latrines by themselves based on an informed choice approach. Most families opt for a dry pit latrine with a lid, econsan toiltelt and several pour flush latrines have been built in the target villages.
• Technical data and design is provided by Officer staff and Village focal CLTS person. • Around 2,000 Ecosan toilets were built by voluntary from community people through CLTS triggering.
The astonishing number of families, who built a latrine when just provided with the relevant know how, is indicating a fundamental change in the Cambodian cultural housing pattern: In rural areas a toilet is more and more considered an essential part of a home and people are ready to take action.

Deep pits (2m) built with terracota bricks, which can be cleaned out manually (using spades and carts), with the contents being re-used for agriculture. The latrine is also the place where people wash. The majority of liquids (urine, shower water and water used for anal hygiene) are separated, flowing away due to the shallow incline of the concrete slab. The first emptying is due to take place in two years time.
The ecological latrines confine and sanitise excrete, they do not take up much space and they are sustainable, which helps them to save money in the long run. Project implemented but certain technical issues still need to be clarified such as the management of the by -products

9 story building with total area of 20,000 m², capacity of 50 persons per floor, 26 squatting and 2 sitting toilets, 14 urinals; approx.: 175 person/day
The Sino-Italian Environment & Energy Building (SIEEB) is located on the campus of the Tsinghua University in northwestern Beijing and is financed by the Italian Ministry for the Enviromental and Territory and the Tsinghua University, in the framework of the Sino Italian Cooperation Programme for Enviromental Protection. Its design integrates ecological and energy-efficient technologies and shows the reduction potential of CO2-emissions in China’s building sector. On nine stories, plus the ground floor and two stories below ground SIEEB provides a total floor space of 20,000 m². The west wing of the symmetrical building is equipped with conventional water flush toilets, while the east wing is equipped with a vacuum urine diverting sanitation.

Vacuum urine diverting squatting pans; vacuum toilet; waterless urinals; urine storage tank; a brownwater storage tank; and a buffer tank for pressure compensation of the vacuum system; greywater treatment with series of coagulation, sand filtration and activated carbon process.
Rainwater, mixed with reclaimed greywater is used for toilet flushing, car washing and landscaping. There is currently no reuse of urine and brownwater and they flow to the sewer.
- Urine collected in the source-separation sitting and squatting toilets as well as the waterless urinals is drained by gravity. Faeces are withdrawn by vacuum suction. Both evacuation systems are made of PVC pipes. Transport of both fractions is carried out with minimal volumes of flush water. Greywater from the hand washing basins is also collected separately and transferred to a compact water treatment facility, where it undergoes coagulation, sand filtration and activated carbon adsorption processes.- The collection and storage station in the basement consists of a urine storage tank, a brownwater (faeces + water) storage tank and a buffer tank for pressure compensation of the vacuum system. All three tanks have a diameter of 0.6 m and a height of 2.0 m (volume 565 L). Two pumps with an installed power of 1.1 kW each generate a vacuum force of 0.4 to 0.6 bar. The vacuum in the air tight system is consistently - The vacuum urine diverting sanitation system has been newly developed for SIEEB and is the first of its kind in China. Its successful use in a modern multi-storey building demonstrates that the system is a potential alternative to more waterdemanding gravitation flush systems in urban areas.- Based on the knowledge gathered during planning and in later it was found that the system represents a technologically feasible and economically reasonable system. Accumulated data on the construction and operation are expected to provide important information for optimisation of the technology and its dissemination.SuSanA casestudy 'Urine diversion vacuum sanitation system, Beijing' (see website below)

- Despite China’s remarkable growth and development, significant pockets of poverty remain in many regions. The development of poor communities is constrained by lack of access to services, unsustainable use of natural resources and unhygienic environmental conditions (e.g. fixed point open defecation, no garbage disposal, unmanaged domestic wastewater disposal, low water quality, mosquitoes breeding, unplanned disposal of animal excreta).- In the project area, in Shaanxi Province (in the North-West of China), lack of safe water supply and basic sanitation is nclosely associated with livelihood and other social issues. Poor economic conditions and lack of participation has hampered the initiation of developmental work. Due to a “top down approach” for community development projects, there is little or no participation from the community. Communities in the programme area are affected by a very high incidence of water borne diseases, particularly diarrhoea and viral hepatitis.

Design information only for double-vault UDDT since they were the most used option:· For a household of 5 persons the unit should consist of two processing chambers, each of a volume of 0.25 m3 (50 kg per person per year x 5 (No. of adults) x 1 year = 250 kg ≈ 0.25 m3).· The entire construction is above ground and the vaults are placed on a solid floor. The size of a vault may be 0.9 m x 0.7 m x 0.4 m (depth) = 0.25 m3. 0.2 m of free space is provided, i.e. total depth = 0.4 + 0.2 = 0.6 m. Thus, final vault size is 0.9 m x 0.7 m x 0.6 m. For a smaller household the size may be reduced.· Two openings of size 0.25 m x 0.25 m are provided in each vault for the removal of dried faeces.A community, if properly mobilised and trained, is capable of identifying sanitary problems and their solutions, and is also ready to plan, design and execute the system which is useful for them. Children and women have eagerness to learn, analyse and solve their problems and manage their time in a most useful manner. One should design hygiene promotion messages with women and children in mind. Hygiene activities should suit to the women in the family and their domestic responsibility. The focus in this case

The Olympic Forest Park lies at the northern end of the historic north-south axis of Beijing. It covers a total area ofm 704 ha and is one of the world’s biggest inner city parks.The park's topography is characterised by a man-made mountain in the south and an extensive network of waterways, lakes and wetlands expanding over 70 ha. More than 60% of the park is covered by vegetation. An average irrigation water demand of 350 mm is estimated for these areas, which is entirely provided by reclaimed wastewater. The park area lies inside a planar depression. This does not allow gravity drainage and was the starting point for the planning team at the Department of Environmental Science and Engineering, Tsinghua University (DESE), in charge of sanitation system planning, to consider alternative sanitation solutions.

Low flush, urine-diverting, sitting or squatting toilets with: a two chamber septic tank system; solid-liquid separation; MBR for liquids; composting of solids (in composting plant)UDDTs- sitting and squatting toilets with collecting below the toiletsConventional flush toilets connected to the sewerConstructed wetlandFertilisation of park vegetation, soil conditioner and mulching material inside and outside of the park and treated brownwater percolation
- The average flush volume in the low-flush toilets is: for faeces is approximately 6 litres and for urine 0.1-0.3 litres. The brownwater (mixture of faeces plus flush and hand wash water) is flushed by gravity into a two chamber septic tank system. Each of the flush toilet blocks has an individual tank system with an average volume of 75 m3 (50-100 m³). The brownwater undergoes a liquid/solid separation in the tanks and afterwards passes through a biological reactor. The reactor effluent flows through open drains towards the wetlands and water-bodies. It is anticipated that a large part of the effluent infiltrates and evaporates on the way. Scum and sludge that floats and settles in the septic tanks is removed via a vacuum truck.A preliminary assessment shows that the urine tanks are currently about half fulld. This means that approx. 1000 m³ of yellow water (urine plus some flush water) has been collected in the period Sept. 2008 to April 2009. This is significantly less than the amount predicted from the model for an 8-month period (4,000 m³ yellow water was expected per year, or 2670 m³ for an 8-month period). Reasons for the lower collected amount could be that the park did not receive as many visitors as assumed in the calculations because of SuSanA case study, 'Urine diversion sanitation in Olympic Forest Park, Beijing' (see website below)

A first attempt to implement urine diversion dehydration toilets in Taishi village in 2002 was a failure both because of technical mistakes and the lack of acceptance by the villagers. In order to enhance the chance of success of a second pilot project, Eawag encouraged the knowledge exchange with specialists from neighbouring Guanxi Province, where several hundred thousand urine diversion dehydration toilets are in use. Furthermore, local social scientists from YASS did follow the villagers’ acceptance of the new sanitation system throughout the project. Both partnerships with KIES and YASS were financially supported by the Swiss NCCR North South Programme. A study tour to Guanxi province and a training course in Kunming and in Zhonghe village were organised in 2003.

Dried faeces were first reused as soil conditioner by the households on their own fields at the end of 2004. Urine is usually mixed with composted organic waste. The quantity of anthropogenic fertiliser available replaces chemical fertiliser to a small extent only, however. Currently compost and urine are not perceived as a significant fertiliser resource by the households due to the limited quantities.
The project was implemented quite successfully. The survey conducted shows that 90% of the households using UDDTs are satisfied with their toilets. Nevertheless, after three months several households still did not use their toilets for various reasons: some users were not involved in the selection of the toilet location, technical problems with urine pipe, and worries about increased complexity of the operation and maintenance, or simple lack of interest to change habits.

it says that such a programme was expanded to 17 provinces in China. There are a couple of other entries for UDDTs in provinces of China, but I think if this were followed up, there should be a very large number of UDDTs in China which are currently not entered in the database.

Start of planning: 1997 Start of construction: 1998
Numerous villages, approx. 685,000 toilet units (by 2003). Assuming average household size of 3 from country list, just over 2 million beneficiaries.
Around 47% of the rural population in China have access to improved sanitation – with around 200 million pit latrines throughout the country. Sludge from latrines and septic tanks, mostly poorly treated, contribute to the transmission of intestinal helminth infections. Remote rural areas suffer particularly from water shortage, mainly due to a lack of access to hygienically safe water resources. This programme is being implementedin the rural areas of Guanxi province, which cover around 80% of the province area. It is one of the poorest provinces in China (income/person 2,400 RMB (220 €) annually). Households are most commonly involved in farming (rice) and small animal husbandry activities.
Sanitation coverage in Guanxi is less than 30% - below the national sanitation targets. In addition frequently occurring floods are a severe problem, as they wash out the contents of pit latrines. Since its start in 1997 in Guanxi province, the programme has been expanded to 17 provinces in 2003.
Separate urine and faeces respectively
Double-vault UDDTs; tissue paper collected separately and burnt.
Approximately 7 million RMB (670.000 €) per year

Dried faeces are applied to plants. Urine is collected once or twice a week and directly applied to the fields in a 50% water dilution.
- 2 chamber UDDT, with a volume of at least 0,4 m³ per chamber, corresponds to a filling time of 6 months for one household.- If the toilet is built on the 1st floor, the faeces drop through a PVC pipe (150- 200 mm diameter) to the chamber at ground level.- The first toilets built in Yongning had self made ceramic pans. Now prefabricated plastic (fibreglass) is used, which is both cheap and break-resistant. They are produced in a local plastic factory. The front is improved by a higher board to prevent urine sprinkles on the floor.There are many advantages of the toilet, like no water consumption and easy and simple to construct. Diarrhoea was dramatically reduced in the villages after introduction of the toilets. Very important for convincing the village inhabitants was the selection of a model household to build a first demonstrationtoilet or a public model.

The faeces are stabilised by storage in 2 ventilated dehydrating chambers be-neath the toilet, used alternating from 6 months to one year. Supplementary dry-ing material such as earth, ash from artisan ovens, carpentries shavings, sometimes lime (costly) are added after using the toilet. Urine flows to an infiltration well or is in some cases collected and stored in containers to be used as fertiliser.
Main social/economic factors affecting the decision to implement a dry toilet:- Migration of husband, lack of decision-making power of women- Older people accepted easier the technology - Bigger payment required for an ecological toilet than WC with septic tank

El Salvador is the most densely populated country in Central America and ecological sanitation has been promoted by the Ministery of Health, UNICEF and several non-government organisations. Double-vault UDDTs and single-vault solar toilets are intended to store faecal waste under conditions that promote desiccation and inactivation of faecal pathogens. The treated biosolids are then removed and disposed of or may be used for agricultural purposes.

The faecal matter is collected in a bin system. The bins will be replaced in specified intervals with new ones. The empty bins are equipped with a layer of organic material (e.g. compost) at the bottom for the adsorption of liquids. The bin system has advantages in situations of misuse or too much liquid – in this case the bin can be replaced by a new one and the material collected in other bins is not affected by this dilution. The filled bins will be transported to the treatment place. Together with the added material (ash, soil or compost) and organic bio waste from other sources (kitchen, gardening etc.) it will be composted at the composting site. After emptying, the bins are cleaned and prepared for the next cycle. The faecal matter

The Arborloo is a very shalow pit that is designed to be eventually a home for a fruit tree. Desiged by Peter Morgan of Zimbabwe especially for African conditions, the toilet is the simplest of all eco-toilets. A pit about 80 cm deep and 60 cm in circumference is dug and dry leaves are added to the bottom. A single concrete slab is placed over the opening. After each use, a cup of soil/wood ash mixture is added to encourage soil composting, to reduce smell, and to discourage insect breeding. A very simply superstructure can be added for privacy. The toilet is used by the household for one year and the slab will be removed, the pit is topped up with good topsoil, and a fruit tree seedling or other plant is planted in the topsoil. As the roots grow To introduce an ecosan project, one needs trained staff and a budget for producing slabs and educating farmers. It is essential to connect the sanitation project with agricultural practices and local agronomists. Ecological sanitation is a system and needs a systems approach, having teams of sanitarians, agronomists, health workers and water supply engineers all involved and seeing the approach as a package and a system. Ideally these toilets should be part of larger water and sanitation programs that include facilities for Ecological Sanitation: A CRS Ethipia Success Story'. http://www2.gtz.de/dokumente/oe44/ecosan/nl/en-ecosan-Ethiopia-Success-Story-2006.pdf

Awareness and skill development training is very essential to own the technology. Construction of dry toilets or biogas digesters, the questions that need due attention are affordability, replicability, social acceptability and sustainability. Along with the construction of toilets for poor people, it is essential to consider installing water system to wash hands after using toilets.

The family-owned farm and restaurant “Waldmichelbacher-hof” is located in Bessenbach, near Aschaffenburg,Bavaria, Germany. It occupies 200 ha of land, where 170 ha are used for grazing and fruit trees and 30 ha are used to grow fodder crops (e.g. maize and oat) for cattle and horses, and to grow field crops for the farm-owned bakery and distillery. At present the farm has 280 cattle and 50 horses. These cattle and horses livein the barn during the winter and outside on grazing land in summer. The farm produces hornless cattle for meat production and breeding purposes. Each week one cow is slaughtered, and the meat is sold in the farm shop and the restaurant. The restaurant serves up to 260 guests. Four families (14 persons) live and workfor the farm.

The farm collects, treats and re-uses the liquid and solid organic waste from the farmhouses, restaurant, shop, distillery, cattle and horse barn, and the slaughterhouse in a biogas plant. The system consists of the following components:- Conventional lowflush toilets. They are installed in the restaurant and farm houses.In the planning phase the planning institution had recognized that there would be no need to install urinediversion toilet, as the urine can be used together with the anaerobically digested waste (water) as fertiliser.- 1 concrete wastewater storage tank of 100 m3. Beside acting as a storage tank it also functions as a pre-mixing tank for the wastewater from the restaurant, farmhouses, the small distillery on the farm, horse urineThe main problems in the operation of the plants were:- The digester no.1 used to have a movable plate heat exchanger between the influent waste and the effluent digested manure using the so called “Freese System”. The system did not function well and was removed in 1995. As a replacement fixed tubular heat exchangers were installed on the wall and the bottomof the cylindrical digesterSheet draft 2005. - Trip Report for Visit to Biogas-Ecosan Project near Aschaffenburg, Germany and Meet with Ecosan-China Experts, UNESCO-IHE Institute for Water Education.

Waterless urinals; urine diversion flush toilets; a separate piping system for undiluted urine collection; urine storage tanks
Reuse of urine for agricultural research.
Waterless urinals (23 are installed): The Keramag waterless urinals (model Centaurus), which are made of sanitary porcelain, are equipped with a flat rubber tube as odour seal and a sieve made of high-grade steel.The flat tube opens when urine flows through it. The sieve traps pubic hair which could otherwise stop the flat rubber tube from closing properly.Urine-diversion flush toilets (50 are installed): The toilets by Roediger (model NoMix) have two separate bowlsfor urine and brownwater collection and two pipe connections for the separated wastewater fractions. They are made of sanitary porcelain. The urine is collected undiluted (without flush water) by means of a valve located below the urinal bowl: the valve is opened when the user sits down. There are two buttons for toilet flushing; the smaller button is for the urine flush, which releases about 1-3 L of water, and with the larger
Waterless urinals: The cleaning staff changes relatively often at the GTZ facilities. It has been found that thorough instruction of the staff which is responsible for the maintenance of the urinals is sometimes lacking. These problems are slightly reduced by replacing sieves and rubber tube seals with a new, optimised model but if maintenance is neglected, then these will also cause odour problems. As a result, the urinal sieves, and rubber tube seals were in some instances not cleaned for many weeks or months. http://www.susana.org/images/documents/06-case-studies/en-susana-cs-germany-eschborn-haus1-2009.pdf

Vacuum toilet:The needed vacuum of 0.5 bar for flushing the toilets is produced by the central vacuum station (type PE30, Roediger) in the basement of the building. By pressing the flush button a membrane valve opens for two seconds resulting in an under pressure. In these seconds 15 - 20 litre of air and 1 litre water is used to flush the toilet. The waste stream is than transported towards a reservoir behind the toilet. This reservoir is a development of Roediger and has a capacity of circa 9 litre of wastewater. Up to 5 - 6 flushes are stalled inside this reservoir and when this reservoir is full it automatically empties itself with the help of 60 - 70 litre of air. The wastewater is subsequently transported to the collecting tank in the

The vacuum system was supplied by Roediger Vakuum und Haustechnik. Greywater treatment system supplied by ACO Passavant. Greywater operates at a capacity of ca. 500 l/h and produces bathing water quality.
The toilet and treatment facilities are well accepted by users and operating staff. Problems occured with pipe blockages during the first 3 months.The greywater treatment system was originally designed exclusively to treat greywater, but now also receives wastewater from the buildings and kitchen, thus causing problems with the system performance. The membrane system in particular has had problems and needed to be adapted to much higher pollution load in water. It would be better to treat highly charged 3 PowerPoint presentations on CD von Lars Späth Roediger Vakuum + Haustechnik: Vacuum Sewerage Systems (2) and Vacuum Systems Photo Presentation;Koetse, E. 2005.

The ecological settlement is part of the new district Neu- Allermöhe, where 3,800 residential units were built between 1982 and 1994. It is a very green area with relatively low buildings (all less than 4 floors), 15 km southeast of Hamburg city centre. The eco-settlement in Neu-Allermöhe-Ost (New- Allermöhe-East) consists of 36 single-family houses with approx. 140 inhabitants aged from 0 to 99 years. All inhabitants are owners of their houses and none of the houses are rented out. The two-storey twin and terraced houses differ in architecture to avoid uniformity. They are arranged around three small court yards: north, middle and south. The area of Allermöhe has many small canals. The entire area of the settlement has a high groundwater table.

Delivery and installation of 1 complete Terra Nova system with 2 toilets,approx. 6,500 EUR (in 2009) Total costs for constructed wetland were € 95,000.
Composting toilet system: Each toilet is connected to one straight chute to the composting container in the basement. Up to 4 toilet pedestals can be connected to one composting container. Used toilet paper is thrown into the toilet and organic kitchen waste can be added as well. The containers have a chamber size of 1.5 - 3 m³ and are delivered with a starter bed consisting of 600 litres absorbing material (compost). This waterless toilet system saves about 40 litres of water per capita per day compared to a conventional flush toilet (10 L per flush) which adds up to 2,044 m³ water savings per year for the whole settlement. Specifications: The toilet seat has a special oval design and offers enough security when being used by General:· User involvement in, and ownership of the technology is veryhigh due to the common vision which was the basic idea ofthe eco-settlement.· Ownership is higher when the inhabitants are owners of thehttp://www.susana.org/images/documents/06-case-studies/en-susana-cs-germany-hamburg-eco-settlement-in-allermoehe-2009.pdf

Implementation of water saving technologies.4 pits from 5 pits will be used as septic tank. The 5th pit will be adapted to a pump station with control function to store the wastewater. The maximum of wastewater amount at weekends will be distributed to a weekly cycle. So the max. wastewater amount does not cross 4 m3 per day. In comparison to the calculation according to DIN, the dimensioning could be reduced about 70 %.

The remaining time in the reactor is 21 days.
- Construction delays and low uptake of houses lead to mal-fuctioning of biogas plant.- The separation of different wastewater flows is possible for a high standard housing area of approx. 350 inhabitants with no operating problems. - A relatively high load of phosphorous in the greywater is caused by washing-up liquids. Washing powder tablets in particular contain up to 30% phosphorous. The inhabitants could be convinced to use different brands, which reduce the P-load in the greywater by 15%.SuSanA case study, 'Ecological housing estate at Flintenbreite, Luebeck'.

04/1995 - 01/1996
When the construction of Arabella Sheraton in Offenbach was planned, the greywater collection, treatment and recycling system was not included. The idea came out during the hotel construc-tion process. So the existing system was built in the garage on two parking lots.
According to the initial design wash basins were placed at the opposite site from baths/showers, so the greywater from wash basins was not included in the greywater recycling system, for the reason of sparing extra draining pipes. Besides recycled greywater from bathes and showers is enough for toilet flushing.

The greywater collection, treatment and recycling system is designed for a capacity of 20 m3/day (400 beds). It takes 35 m2 to place the treatment facilities. It was designed on an estimation of 70 to 90 liter of greywater to be produced per day per person and 50 to 70 liter water required per day per overnight for toilet flushing. There were no existing legal minimum quality requirements for recycled greywater in Germany, but the quality of the treated greywater was designed to meet the specific quality standards issued on a leaflet by the Berlin Senate Department for using recycled greywater in building and housing. Only environmentally sound and corrosion resistant materials are employed: PE and polypropylene (PP) tanks,PE bio-rotors, stainless steel V4A shafts and bearings, zinc-plated steel fittings for the tanks, and PE, PP, stainless steel and copper pipes.- The cleaned greywater is odourless, clear and free of suspended material. The user suffers no loss of comfort in comparison to the use of drinking water. According to the hotel, no customer complained.- The primary settling tanks originally installed were market products for rainwater storage. They were made from recycled polyethylene (PE). After some time of operation the first two tanks cracked due to insufficient quality and were replaced by new PE tanks. The new tanks are functioning well. http://www.gtz.de/en/dokumente/en-ecosan-pds-018-germany-offenbach-arabella-2006.pdfSee PDS 018

Part of electricity used to run the drainage network. Sludge will be initially given to the Köhlbrandhöft treatment plant. In the future nitrogen and phosphorus recovery will be done. Rainwater:- Open drainage to a central pond. Bottom of pond is lined to always hold a minimum amount of water also in dry months. Storage space is for 30 year rain event. Above the minimum level, water is sent via a throttle to the receiving stream. To prevent eutrophication and lowering oxygen levels, the water is circulated over cascades which are fitted with P removal filters.

Consortium as above
German Ministry of Research and Education (BMBF)
Pre-phase: 2003-2005BMBF funding ends in 2009 but the project is likely to continue with other funding or just run by university itself
2500 people on the campus (staff and students) - most, but not all, live on the campus. In future, up to 5000 people (in about 2013)
Consortium: Bauhaus University in Weimar (BUW), University of Hohenheim (UHOH), Ecological Engineering Society (IÖV), Berger Biotechnik Ltd., Palutec Ltd.
University campus covers 121 hectares. In 2001, water was delivered to the campus by truck. Wastewater disposal used to take place in septic tanks decentralised for each building. Within the ecological development of VVU, agriculture is challenged to produce crops for the supply of the cafeteria and the local market, while offering environmentally sound and hygienically safe disposal solutions for valuable and nutrient-rich sewage water, thus closing the nutrient loop. For this purpose, VVU has reserved an area of about 20 hectares for farming on campus. The poor nutrient status and the low water holding capacity of the soil along with very light precipitation make efficient use of soil fertility enhancing resources an absolute must.
Urine, faeces, wastewater, bio-waste and left-over from the kitchen (plastic bags are now also recycled)
Specific technologies not clear, a little bit of everything mentioned

Urine, greywater, composting of septic tank sludge are utilised on the VVU own farmland for growing various crops
Installations for treatment and management of black water, greywater and rainwater, urine and biogas (?). Waterless urinals and water saving separation toilets.
The success of the physical measures was very much depending on care, training, acceptance and the choice of the special responsible perons. A qualified supervision of the buildings by a construction manager is essential.

Total land area covered: ~500 m². City of Kumasi has 1 million inhabitants; but only a fraction of the faecal sludge is treated. Text from SuSanA case study: Of the 500 m³ /d of faecal sludge produced, only 1.5 m³/day istreated in the pilot plant. Kumasi has a full-scale faecal sludgetreatment plant (formerly, the faecal sludge treatment plant at
Joint planning by 4 institutions led by International WaterManagement Institute (IWMI):· International Water Management Institute (IWMI);executive institution· Department of Water and Sanitation in DevelopingMinistry of Foreign Affairs, FranceNCCR North South, SwitzerlandKEZO, Switzerland
The overall faecal sludge treatment situation in Kumasi is as follows, according to Vodounhessi and von Münch (2006) “The collection companies discharge the collected FS at the privately operated FS treatment plant (FSTP) at Dompoase and there is now no longer illegal FS dumping in the city. This has been successful through the strictness of the District Assembly rules and the community participation in denouncing defaulters. The FSTP is located at the Dompoase solid waste landfill site and consists of five anaerobic, one facultative and two maturation ponds to treat FS and landfill leachate. The facility became operational in January 2004. The treated liquid effluent is mixed with the underground drainage from the solid waste landfill and discharged into Sisai River without further treatment, despite questionable effluent quality (based on visual observation; no analytical data available)."

1) faecal sludge drying on unplanted drying beds and2) windrows co-composting of dried faecal sludge (FS) andorganic solid waste (oSW).
Two unplanted drying beds were built with a surface area of 25 m2 each (to hold 15 m³ excreta with a depth of 30 cm). They consist of different layers of a gravel-sand filter material of different thickness and particle sizes. The composting area is a roofed and sealed composting pad of 10 x 12 m. The composting pad has a slight slope of 1% towards the centre where a narrow drainage channel is located. This serves as a drainage system in case of leachate generation. The maturation area is a roofed and sealed pad of 7 x 6 m. These can be applied for similar climatic conditions and faecal sludge characteristics in other countries.Functional improvements of the drying beds are necessary to guarantee a continuous and sustainable compost production. Improvements are needed on the filter quality and how to control the effect of rainfall.The co-composting plant has experienced the following operational problems:· Occasionally, long delays in waste delivery to the site occur (due to logistical problems with the waste collectors) which consequently cause a disruption of the operation.http://www.susana.org/images/documents/06-case-studies/en-susana-cs-ghana-kumasi-cocomposting-2009.pdf

This project falls under the Government of Guinea Conakry and UNICEF Program• In Guinea l' ecological cleansing was introduced by CREPA in 2002 through a research program comprising four areas (sociocultural, technical, agronomic and medical). Results were obtained from a pilot village (Ansoumaniya, Dubréka) and presented the 1st forum of research of CREPA in 2004 in Ouagadougou. • Decentralised, and integrated project in Kissidougou Zone (2006) Promotion of hygiene in the schools: 5,000 pupils in two schools in Conakry have access and use UDDT latrines , drinking water in the classrooms and handwashing facilities at the entrance of the toilets. Also committees have been set-up for children, headmasters and PTAs. As a result, schools are now able to manage the infrastructures of water and cleansing, and maintain cleanliness in the schools and follow basic hygiene practices at the critical times. Approximately 8 schools have benefited from the countruction of 32 facilities in total, under UNICEF's support

The rains that accompanied Hurricane Noel in November 2007 made for unpleasant walking for Petite-Anse’s residents. Mud on unpaved streets churned and mixed with litter and raw sewage in this neighborhood of Cap Haitien in Northern Haiti. Prior to this project, the only available toilet in the area was a rundown latrine that was nearly full, difficult to access and surrounded by garbage.
The public toilets are located in the rear of the public market in Petite-Anse where hundreds of women work each day selling produce and other goods. The toilet serves 300 people. AFAPA chose to charge people from the market a small fee to use the toilet (5 Gourdes = ~12 cents US). The money is used to pay someone to manage the latrines and to buy toilet paper and cleaning supplies.

The desiccated faeces and cover material and urine (after storage) is applied as soil amendment and nitrogen-rich liquid fertiliser respectively to flower beds, kitchen gardens, etc. Treated greywater is used for irrigating the garden.
- "3-hole" squatting pans (urine, faeces and anal wash water collected separately); - in order to facilitate the harvest of the desiccated faeces and cover material, the toilets are designed to operate in batches and cubicles will double-up as showers during the “resting period”. If a processing chamber is full, the cubicle above is converted into a “bathroom” by providing a specially designed cover that seals the urine-diversion squatting pan and prevents showerwater from entering either the processing chamber or the urine collection system. - processing chamber with minimum volume 2 m3, 5 urine tanks of 2 m3;Spreading of knowledge from school kids to villages. Elimination of prejudices among village dwellers. Project helped to remove caste-based occupation. Promotion of gender issues (scavening mainly done by women) and of sanitation under the aspect of human dignity (cultural and social relevance).

SCOPE UDDT ('composting') toilet:The UDDT has two chambers and is used alternatively. 3-hole squatting pan is used to separate the waste streams (faeces, urine, wash water). Faeces is stored for about 8 - 10 months. The toilet is provided with a concrete bottom so that there will be no contact between the human excreta and the soil. After defecation the user sprinkles ash over excreta so that there will not be any fly or mosquito nuisance. S/He then closes the drop hole with a lid. Only about three liters of water is needed for body wash. (In comparison, a conventional toilet uses 12 to 15 L water). As opposed to conventional sanitation constructions, ecosan constructions are highly suitable for high water-table areas such as sandy coastal belts and riverbanks.

The Ecosan Services Foundation from Pune, India, is conducting a sanitation feasibility study for the city of Pandharpur. The design and construction of a reuse-oriented ecosan system will follow. After a first draft prefeasibility study has been conducted, the project proposal has been submitted to Pandharpur Municipal Council and Maharashtra Jeevan Pradhikaran State Environment Department. Based on the expertise of seecon consultancy, the project is about to start in about one year.
Mid-size city (100,000 permanent residents, 25,000 floating population, several 100,000 up to 1 million devotees on several occasions)
The project is conducted with collaboration of the city council, the Maharashtra Pollution Board, GTZ and Seecon International
Located at the banks of the Bhima-River, the town is one of the most important pilgrimage places of the state. Makeshift toilets are provided along the riverbanks during festival seasons and the sanitary situation in general is poor. The small pilgrimage town lacks the necessary infrastructure, which leads to environmental stress resulting in a steady degradation of environmental status/conditions of the town.

Sanitation facilities upgraded in a boarding training institute using systems with separated waste streams, on-site treatment and reuse of products.
Start: 09/2004Start of construction: 02/2005Start of operation: 08/2006
300 students, 500 visitors per monthOne sanitation complex with 22 pour-flush toilet cabins (11 for females and 11 for males). 2 UDDTs next to the men's hostel. 1 UDDT next to the women's hostel. 1 urinal centre (with multiple male and femal urinals)
The DSK institute wastewater was collected and infiltrated into the ground by two soak-pits located close to thehostel building. The following reasons led to a malfunction of the system:· Due to the lack of maintenance (sludge removal of the soakpits), sludge accumulated at the bottom and walls of the soak-pits leading to an insufficient infiltration of the wastewater into the ground.· In addition, wastewater was not discharged into the soakpits at ground level but at a depth of 3 m below ground. This caused a permanently flooded sewer and soak-pits, resulting in significant odour as well as unhygienic conditions (flies breeding contributing to the transmission of diseases).· The groundwater level varies between 5 m (during dry season) and only 1.5 m below ground (during rainy season). It can therefore be assumed that wastewater also mixed withthe groundwater, which was a severe health risk as groundwater is used for drinking water.
The Institute was planning an expansion, and hence a new sanitation concept was also developed. Navasarjan Trust aims at eliminating discrimination based on caste to assure equality of status and opportunities. Manual scavenging practices should stop with the help of ecosan and hence such a sanitation system was implemented
Black water; urine; dried faeces; greywater streams.
Pour-flush toilets connected with biogas plant; sludge drying bed.Men and women urinals (used with flushing water); single-vault UDDTS; urine storage/hygienisation tanks.Organic filter; elevated grey-water gardens.
Biogas: used as a substitute to Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) and firewood cooking; Slurry: used as a soil conditioner (e.g. growing seeds); Source-separated urine collected from the urinal centre (with flush water) and the UDDTs: applied after storage as a nitrogen-rich liquid organic fertiliser in the kitchen-garden and campus lawn. Greywater from dishwashing: treated by organic (straw) filter, stored and used to irrigate nearby plantations.
Sanitation Complex:Toilet cabins with pour (low) flush squatting pans (with water seal) using 4-5 L per flush, arranged in a circular shape around a biogas plant located in the center. Biogas plant: It has a "floating drum" cover which simultaneously stores and provides the produced gas at a constant pressure. The daily amount of blackwater of 1.4 to 2.4 m3/d. With the given volume of the biogas digester of 27.3 m³, this results in a hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 11 to 20 days. With a HRT of 11 days at mesophilic temperatures, anaerobic decomposition and hygienisation (if at all) will however be very low Urinal centre: due to incorrect installation of 'membrane valves' attached at the urinal drains for odour control and to reduce the water consumption, odours came out of the drains. Hence, flushing became necessary for both ladies' and gents' urinals. Consequently, the membrane valves have been removed and today the urinal is flushed 8 times a day. A solution could consist of installing a 3-way-valve that would collect the flushing water separately from the urine.

Hot water required for bathing is provided through biogas-fuelled heaters. The biogas is generated from the biogas digesters that are part of the treatment system. Blackwater is treated by a biogas settler followed by a baffled reactor and finally a planted gravel filter. Greywater from laundry and washbasins is directed to planted gravel filters.

- It was observed that the Planted Gravel Filter (PGF) had water stagnation and the filter material was choked with mud. The reason for this might be the result of the levelling of ground surrounding the PGF. Due to recent rains, mud was washed into the PGF. This stagnation resulted in reduced efficiency of the PGF. Filter material has to be replaced or cleaned in the upcoming maintenance session to re-establish permeability.BORDA (2006): Maintenance activities at CBS unit - Ullalu Upanagara.

Faeces is stored for about 8 - 10 months. The toilet is provided with a concrete bottom so that there will be no contact between the human excreta and the soil. After defecation the user sprinkles ash over excreta so that there will not be any fly or mosquito nuisance. S/He then closes the drop hole with a lid. Only about three liters of water is needed for body wash. (In comparison, a conventional toilet uses 12 to 15 L water).Good education should aim at inculcating in the minds of children the need for promoting health and hygienic practices that are also environmentally friendly. The implementation of urine-diversion toilets was a success and, therefore, should be implemented in the whole state.

Zero-discharge, recycling toilet being tested for Indian trains and communal toilet blocks, Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh
Pilot project for trialling an ecological toilet for trains and public toilets that minimises water use and reuses outputs.
Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh.Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh.
Toilet model developed in 2007 and installed at IIT Kanpur. Currently testing phase by Indian Railways (along with another ecological toilet) in trains. Indian Railways will install ecological toilet in its 9,000 trains by 2011-2013. Meanwhile, UNICEF trialling toilet in Aligarh in a communal toilet block.
Four toilets have been installed in a congested locality of Aligarh by UNICEF where most households do not have toilet facilities – or the toilets discharge into open drains. Each toilet is designed for 25 users per day, so the new toilet block serves 100 people. Toilet in testing phase for Indian trains. In the future, 9,000 trains will be equipped with the toilet.A full-scale model of the zero-discharge toilet was installed at the IIT Kanpur campus more than two years ago and is still in operation.
A lack of access to proper sanitation in rural and urban regions threatens to hold India back. Conscious of water shortages, an ever-increasing population and its important role in tackling climate change, India is trying to find solutions to sanitation shortfalls that conserve water while providing access to a greater number of people. The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur has created just such a solution – a zero-discharge toilet. A large proportion of the Indian population do not have access to public toilets, let alone a domestic connection, so the zero-discharge toilet is being tried out in the public domain. Furthermore, at the request of Indian Railways, via government funding, Tare and his team at IIT Kanpur were asked to develop a new sanitation system for the national railway network. Filthy conditions at railway stations, corrosion of rails and the underside of carriages, and a desire to improve sanitary conditions on the nation’s vast rail network led Indian Railways to approach IIT Kanpur. Officials wanted a system that used limited fresh water and prevented waste from coming into contact with infrastructure. Railways Minister Lalu Prasad – who has become something of a national icon – is credited with transforming Indian Railways from near bankruptcy several years ago to a thriving enterprise now making billions of dollars a year in profit. “Lalu Prasad wants change in India. He has traveled all over the world to look at what kind of toilet systems are being used in trains,” Tare says. “The railways came to the conclusion that none of the toilet systems available in the world are appropriate for Indian conditions, so that is why they are interested in our

Flush toilet with tank and separator below the toilet; filters; microbial cultures; pre-composting; vermicomposting; liquid evaporation.
The main body of the toilet is essentially the same. Typically for a domestic toilet the additional cost (on top of the toilet itself) will equate to $US 65 to $US 86 per toilet.
The main body of the zero-discharge toilet is identical to a conventional model, but the collection and processing of waste is entirely different. A tank and separator device is installed to the P-trap (water seal) below the toilet that divides solids and liquids. The separator generates a thin film of water that adheres to the surface and flows outwards, collecting liquids (the water is guided into pipes in the sides that take it to another tank), and the solids gravitate into the central retention compartment. The pipes are fitted with microfilters made of high quality poly vinyl chloride which clean the liquid. The microfilters do not cost more than Rs 100 and last at least a year. In community toilets where electricity may not be available, hand - The implementation of dry toilets in trains is a useful way to save fresh water, and minimise wastewater production. Overall, the toilets decreases the level of fresh water consumption. - Using faecal matter in vermicomposting is tricky. - The compost currently being produced at the IIT campus is of good quality.

Currently there is one toilet block for boys (5 toilets, 7 urinals, 6 bathrooms) and one for girls(6 toilets, 7 urinals, 6 bathrooms). Each toilet (low flush toilet, rural pan) block has a watertank with a capacity of about 2 m3 in its centre. The students can use a bucket to take water from there for flushing after toilet use, anal cleansing, showering and washing clothes. The urinals are waterless and the urine flows out into a trench system through which the water from showering and washing clothes also flows; i.e. the urine gets flushed with this water to the outlet of the toilet block and from there directly into the open field outside the school premises. The wastewater from toilet use flows into a septic tank (each toilet block has a ST), and from there direct into the open field. The sanitary infrastructure was built in 1996. Since then the ST has never been desludged and therefore it is to be expected that the ST is full of faecal sludge and the retention time of the blackwater in the tank has been substantially reduced, which also reduces the treatment efficiency of the ST. Considering this status and that this is a water shadow area, the need of reuse of water is a necessity. Hence a decentralised treatment system for grey water has been finalised. Moreover, open defecation in the same premises has been observed. The school has suggested to increase the number of toilet blocks along with the shower facility. There is no toilet facility for teachers and non-teaching staff. Hence in the memorandum of understanding, it is suggested to have a separate toilet provision for them.

Decentralised wastewater treatment scheme for 300 + 240 households (stage I & II, respectively) approx: 2000 persons
Ecosan Services Foundation (ESF)Paradigm Environmental Strategies Ltd.?
The wastewater from about 300 households (i.e. Cluster A) drains to a septic tank for treatment. But due to the desolate condition of the existing sewer system a large amount of the wastewater does not even reach the treatment system. The septic tank itself is in bad condition as well and partially filled with solid waste dumped at the site.
Domestic watsewater
A cost estimate suggests total project implementation costs of about INR 4,000,000 (i.e. approx. € 57,300).
http://www.susana.org/images/documents/06-case-studies/en-susana-cs-india-madha-housing.pdf
Treatment of domestic wastewater will happen in a decentralised treatment system comprising a biogas settler, an anaerobic baffled reactor and an anaerobic upflow filter
Treated wastewater for irrigation purposes. Biogas will be converted into electricity via a (bio) gas generator
Daily wastewater production is estimated to be about 200 m³. The surface area for construction of all treatment steps is approx. 500 m2.

Phase 1: 1 demonstration toilet in the Ecology Centre guest house used by appr.100 persons/day (1- Phase)Phase 2: 8 ecosan separation toilets
As opposed to the overall situation in India which is dominated by faecophobia, in Leh traditionally excreta were composted and seen as an important resource for nutrients since centuries. Ladakh (“Little Tibet”) is one of the last remaining traditional cultures on earth. Leh is situated in a mountainous desert 3,500 m above sea level with long cold winters and severe water scarcity with rainfall below 100 mm per year. In the 1970s, tourism came to Ladakh undermining traditional agrarian lifestyle and values. In the case of sanitation, especially in Leh people tried to replace traditional sanitation systems by waterborne toilet systems. This development e.g. increased water supply problems and pollution of surface and groundwater due to leakages and disposal of untreated wastewater. The waterborne systems often simply drain into the irrigation systems of the urban and peri-urban agriculture of Leh, leading to smell and hygienic concerns. An additional problem of waterborne systems in this region is freezing of pipes during winters with temperatures reaching minus 30 °C. In 1978, the ecological Ladakhi project was founded in order to preserve and develop ways of living adapted to the local conditions and values. An indigenous NGO, LEDeG, started an Ecology Centre for visitors in Leh establishing a soft tourism approach and facilitating close contact of tourists to the nature-based life of the Ladakhi society. In the centre, a demonstration facility of the traditional Ladakhi toilet system is implemented.
Combined soil, faeces and urine mixture
Traditional composting toilet; two-pit traditional toilet; trombe-wall, solar, passive toilet.
The quantity of composted excreta collected for reuse is about 3 m3 per year. The amount of soil added per year is about 2 m3 . The excreta and soil mixture is removed once a year and traditionally reused as fertiliser and soil conditioner, commonly in urban agriculture.
Total investment was 40,000 INR (appr. 650 Euro). The cost for each ecosan toilet in a household was 15,000 - 20,000 INR (appr. 300 Euro).
Traditional composting toilet (at the Ecology Centre): Based on the traditional local toilet system, improved by a black-painted vent-pipe (like in VIP latrines) to ventilate the collection chamber and reduce flies. Most traditional houses have an indoor toilet on the upper floor. Due to an extremely dry climate it is possible to process human excreta indoors without prior diversion of urine, by using a combination of soil composting and dehydration. On the floor of the toilet, there is a thick layer of soil from the garden. In the floor, a drop hole leads to a small ground-floor room. This room can only be reached from the outside. People excrete on the soil which is on the floor and then push soil and excreta together down the drop hole. - If the demonstration toilet in the Ecology Center is properly used and maintained, it is accepted as the traditional solution.- Ashes from the kitchen are added from time to time to reduce moisture and thus improve compost quality.- Improving the traditional system with a ventilation increases the comfort of the system.- If compost process is not finished, it is brought to a nearby field and covered with soil to finalise the process.SEI (2004).

- Two above-ground defecation chambers, used alternatively.- First chamber opened after storage time of 8 months. - Use cover of millet grain and ash from cooking as drying and cover material after defecation.- Urine stored in a container or pipe leads directly to neighbouring fields for fertilisation of ash gourd crop. - Wash water appears to be used in the fields.
- On the 1st of September, 2009 the first dessicating chamber was successfully opened. The dried matter had no smell was excellently dessicated and has been picked up for pathogen and nutrient analysis. - In the same village, the Arghyam- GKVK Centre of Excellence on productive sanitation runs a farmers' field trial. The latest experiment has been on ash gourd and this too has shown excellent results with human urine application in 3 split doses. The crop flowered early, sprouted fruit early and had larger fruits than usual.Project is demonstrated on You Tube, see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRTPFs6JRX0&feature=channel_page.

Faeces will be used for agriculture after one year of storage; Urine and wash water is diverted and let into the home garden.
INR: 977,980 (US$: 21,700)The C-Cerp toilet model costs around INR 9,000 for bamboo thatched walls and INR12,000 for cemented structures. If used correctly, the toilet can last for 15 to 20 years.
The eco-san toilet is built above the ground with twin chambers beneath the toilet pan. Ash, soil or lime is strewn over the collected matter to dehydrate and deodorise it. The collected matter is reduced to manure in about one year (in Nagaland context) without any stench and can then be used for agriculture. Urine and wash water is diverted and let into the home garden.
- UNICEF is also trying to make an impact in the GoI policy. Ecosan is just one component out of the five ecological sanitation elements of brown, yellow, rain, grey water and solid waste.- C-Cerp officials said they will be coming out with a document on the pilot project of eco-san in a month’s time with inputs from users of Beisumpuikam village. The implementing agency is also in the process of organising an awareness programme on the do’s and don’t of the eco-san toilets. And if the eco-san project is successful in its experimentation here in the State, C-Cepr hopes that with assistance of the state Nagaland Post article entitled "Hygienic 'eco-san' toilets for rural areas" (published 14/08/2009) see: http://www.nagalandpost.com/ShowStory.aspx?npoststoryiden=UzEwMTYzNDE%3D-2lAEJuTWDvI%3D.

Urine is reused as fertiliser for the farms. The faecal matter is not yet ready for reuse but will be applied as fertiliser.
Because of low soil bearing capacity (black cotton soil), a strong foundation of 1.2 m was necessary. Volume of storage compartments: 1 m x 1.2 m x 1 m = 1.2 m3
Faecal chambers are used alternatively, i.e. faeceal matter is dessicated and treated by storage (storage period?)
Farmers are using excreta as fertiliser. They are currently using stored urine, and dessicated faecal matter (which is not yet ready ) will also be reused as fertiliser, thus reducing the cost of buying artificial fertiliser and increasing their farm yield. The owners are satisfied with the UDDTs.

The resort is situated next to Kanindi River and is surrounded by agricultural land. The wastewater produced in the resort was treated on-site in a septic tank. The effluent of the septic tank percolated into the ground; there was no reuse of the water. Leakage of septic tank caused unhygienic conditions around the tank and river, and therefore the owner of the resort decided to go for a more sophisticated treatment system. A small sewer network collects and transports the entire wastewater from the bungalows and the kitchen to a location behind the bungalows. Fresh water for the resort is pumped up daily from the nearby river.

The treated wastewater will be reused for gardening purposes. Sludge can be co-composted with wet organic material. The compost can be used as soil conditioner in the garden
Generated wastewater: 5 m3/d Inlet BOD: 240 mg/l The tanks are designed for a desludging period of 2 years.
Concerning construction of the treatment system, the only challenge was the fact that there was a rocky part at the location of excavation; to minimise the construction costs the location had to be shifted 1 meter.

Double vault urine diversion and compost toilet. New modification introduced to use a plastic drum instead of constructing chambers- saves about 40% of construction costs.
The two chamber toilet will be replaced by one chamber system. A “Plastic Drum” is used for collecting faeces for a year or so, once it fills, the drum is replaced with empty one. The filled drum is kept for six months for decomposition and used as manure. Like wise the plastic drum is changed as on when it fills. This reduces 40 % of the present construction cost and also reduces the cost for clearing the compost every year, the management also comparatively easy. 29 such models were constructed in erode district on pilot basis.
This approach followed a systematic path that graduated from farm waste to animal waste to human waste. Eco-san in this route of waste management has filled the gap very effectively. Because of this over all holistic approach, each household today has a bio-gas plant, bathroom with eco-friendly water heater, eco-san toilets, kitchen garden, cow shed with urine collection tank, and space for vermi-composting indigenous growth promoters and pest repellents, rain water harvesting, tree planting on field bunds, etc. Interestingly, Evaluation report,'MYRADA KRISHI VIGYAN KENDRA

Sanitation facility coverage only reaches 65 %; the rest uses public toilet and naturalenvironments such as bushes and open ditches. Generally, those with a private toilet at their home use aseptic tank as on-site wastewater treatment. The outlet seeps directly into the groundwater, polluting it.Grey water is normally disposed directly into ditches and nearest rivers without further processing.Therefore, both groundwater and surface water are in bad conditions. Consequently, water from thewell is unfit for daily use. The 1997 SSDP Report shows that the incident index rate for diarrheareached 11.25 %, an alarming number indicating terrible sanitation conditions.

The intention is to collect wasterwater from the residential area in an underground settling pond to separate out the non-degredable material. The water will be pumped to the top of a constructed wetland treatment system and will be collected in reservoir, after UV treatment, will again be pumped to the top of the system, this time to flow down through an ornamental pond. Excess flow will be drawn off and used for landscape irrigation.
96 cells, each 4 m by 4 m and 0.8 m deep with different plants. The ornamental pond is approximately 900 m² with the inlet water quality to this set at 5 mg/l BOD, 5 mg/l total suspended solids and a zero value for E.coli. The project is still awaiting approval by the Ministry of Health. In the meantime, grey water from the residential area is routed to the sewer and the plants of the natural treatment system are being watered by mains water.

A Biotoilet is an automated type of composting reactor that utilizes sawdust as an artificial soil matrix for biodegradtion of human excreta. The system consists of the following main components: Excreta falls/runs from the toilet bowl and/or urinal to the electronically steered composting reactor. There it is automaticallymixed in certain intervals and ventilated. To ensure an optimum temperature for the composting the reactor is electrically heated as far as necessary. Almost all of the installed bio-toilets in Asahiyama zoo are used to treat both faeces and urine, while few units are just used to collect urine from urinals.
During eight years of monitoring so far no problem has been encountered. The zoo authorities can now open the zoo even during winter season because freezing is no longer a problem. Each unit works even at extreme conditions like freezing temperatures. The public accepted it very well, especially since there are no odour problems, which are often encountered in other toilet systems. Since there are adapted toilet types also for special needs like those of handicapped people or portability of whole units no major PDS 030 http://www.gtz.de/en/dokumente/en-ecosan-pds-030-automated-compost-toilet-asahiyama-zoo-2006.pdf

Use of treated wastewater in agriculture, Jordan Valley

Deutsche Gesellschaft für Technische Zusammenarbeit (GTZ) GmbH
Jordan Valley Authority
BMZ (German Federal Ministry for Economic Collaboration and Development) via GTZ
Development of optimised fertigation (irrigation and fertiliser) practices by farmers using reclaimed water for irrigation based on their specific site conditions
Farms in the middle and southern Jordan Valley extending over a length of about 50 km between Kreimehand the Dead Sea.
The project was, and still is, part of three consecutive GTZ programmes (carried out on behalf of the German ministry BMZ):1. from 2003 - 2006: Reclaimed Water Project2. 2006 - 2009: Water Management in Irrigated Agriculture3. 2009 - 2011: Water Resource ManagementAbout 4,000 farm units with 10,000 ha irrigable area;
The Jordan Valley is characterised by low annual rainfalls (an average of less than 300 mm at Deir Alla and 100 mm at South Shuneh). However, the mild winter season between November and April allows an off-season production of vegetables under irrigation. The majority of the farmers are small scale farmers, with anaverage farm area of about 3 hectares. Complementary activities of another GTZ project (Water Management in Irrigated Agriculture) support the establishment of water user associations in order to improve the water use efficiency. Both projects belong to the GTZ Water Program in Jordan.
In Jordan there are 22 wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) treating approx. 250 ML/d of wastewater. Most of the treatment plants are small, except for the plant as As-Samra, which treats more than 80% of this quantity. In 2008 this plant was rehabilitated from a stabilisation pond system to an activated sludge system. Approximately 66% of Jordan’s WWTP effluent of 250 ML/d is used for irrigation in the Jordan Valley. In theory, untreated industrial wastewater is not allowed to be mixed in before treatment at Khirbet As-Samra WWTP,however it happens very often.

- In the project region the main source of reclaimed water for irrigation is the treatment plant at Khirbet As-Samra, the country’s largest treatment plant with a yearly effluent of currently 137 ML/d.- From King Talal Reservoir (KTR) the discharged effluent is led via further wadis (small streams) and canals to the middle and southern Jordan Valley. The reservoir is solely used for agriculture and has a capacity of 75 Mm3.- The distance to the main canal in the Jordan valley is 14 km, and this main canal has an extension from north to south of 90 km. At the end of these canals, the reclaimed water is finally used to irrigate about 4,000 farms with an area of approx. 10,000 ha.- The use of reclaimed water for irrigation is generally a sensitive topic in the public due to lack of information. No country-wide crop monitoring system for crops irrigated with reclaimed water has been established yet due to unclear roles (and overlapping of roles) between involved agencies with regards to who should be in charge of such a scheme for monitoring biological contamination of crops.- Providing guidelines in this field helps to clarify and improve the situation. The majority of farmers in the project area are not aware of the nutrient content of the reclaimed water and are beginning to appreciate information regarding reclaimed water quality.SuSanA case study, 'Use of treated wastewater in agriculture, Jordan Valley'.

This system consists of a septic tank followed by an anaerobic (upflow) rock filter and a trickling filter, with recirculation from the trickling filter back to the pumping tank.The anaerobic filter is used prior to the trickling filter to provide for further BOD and TSS reduction to improve nitrification. Enhanced total nitrogen removal may be achieved by recirculatng the nitrified effluent from the trickling filter to the anoxic conditions in the upflow rock filter or the influent of the septic tank, which is not the case of the original design. Sufficient organic carbon can be provided from the septic tank filter recirculation to the upflow filter for the denitrifying bacteria. The trickling filter unit doesn’t include a

Aksu-Jabagly Reserve is located in the mountainous area in the south of Kazakhstan on the territory of the Western Tian-Shan. Naurzum Reserve is located in steppe zone of Kostanay region.In and around Aksu-Jabagly Game Reserve: Villages Karamendy and Urkash; Naurzum Game Reserve: Villages Tonkeris and Baldybrek.
20 pilot UDDTs constructed, including two school UDDT. Planned for 2009: 3 school dry toilets, 2 constructed wetlands for greywater. (Additionally, urine diverting slabs by the SISTROM technology (Russian) and production of household dry toilets are planned)

Aksu-Jabagly Reserve is the oldest game reserve in Central Asia. Cesspools and discharge of waste waters just on the surface is traditional. No village in rural districts has any treatment facilities. With growing material well-being more and more people are able to build the toilets with flushing. Already now, the South-Kazakhstan region is one of most affected, concerning infectious diseases. Naurzum Reserve has impoverished population. The water supply systems constructed in the times of USSR are not functioning. 95% of the population uses water from wells, which in most cases does not correspond to sanitary standards. Rural schools have no warm toilets. The possibility of catching infectious and catarrhal diseases is very high. Because of pit latrines, nitrate levels found between 50 - 500 mg/l

Mobile UDDT built at camp:Simple portable construction: double chamber made of iron sheets, green tent-textile, ventilation pipe, canister for urine, some wood and linoleum for floor, and 30 minutes for installation.
Lesson Learnt:- Inspectors in the game reserves have too low a salary (about 100 EURO). They have no interest in tourism, the less tourists come the less troubles for them. So nobody and nothing can make them take care of the toilets.- Many people are interested in good quality slabs. Absence of local production of slabs is a bottleneck of spreading of UDDTs. Understanding the importance of sanitation is improving the situation of poor people.

Developing service providers of compost and biogas plants for small scale farmers in western Nyanza rift valley, central and eastern provinces of Kenya
Developing entrepreneurs for the construction of small-scale biogas plants and training of self-help groups in making composting plants
3 entrepreneurs which offer services for construction and operation of biogas plants for a rising number of clients (22 clients in May 2006)
Firewood has become short because of cultivation of land and destruction of the forest cover, declining soil fertility. A large amount of waste and wastewater from farms is not used at all but polluting the environment.Hence cost saving and environment-friendly technologies for energy production, fertilisation and irrigationare needed.
Problems experienced earlier in the biogas plant construction and uptake have been mainly quality related bysemi trained or untrained masons. Until 1994 there have been several support programs for regenerative energies funded by diverse donors, that offered e.g. information literature or one-day trainings carried out by national NGOs.. A number of entrepreneurs who only participated in these far short workfigure shops or who were self trained by books, offered construction of inadequate biogas plants at the market, thus contributing negatively to the reputation of the technology.Although some private composting activities have been going on already for a number of years the used technologies were often inadequate, resulting in a poor quality product, unattractive to customers.

Investment costs for a turnkey 16 m3 biogas plant amount for instance to app. 1500 US$. Experience shows that an average investment of app. 80 - 100 US$ per m3 digester volume can be taken.Composting includes land costs
Biogas: The project targets to closely monitor the masons under training to ensure that they maintainquality and are only allowed to undertake constructions after being properly trained. Follow-up supervision and establishment of a network will contribute to monitoring of the skills development. However an upscaling of implementation of biogas plants would help to meet the masons comprehensive training requirements.

For school it is also appealing to raise their social status and image with improved sanitation facilities that are likely to attract more students and funds. The awareness on environmental benefits of ecosan is well understood by the local population, but it is lower-ranking as an incentive for schools.

Low sanitation coverage. Pollution of water resources by raw sewage and pit latrines. Pit latrines in rural and urban areas pollute groundwater through leakage as well as surface water after strong rainfall and flooding. Occurence of water-related diseases is the result. High costs for re-investing in latrines after the pits are full, frequent flooding is prevelant and especially in areas where only shallow pits can be dug, e.g. rocky, collapsing soils and high groundwater table. Poor agricultural soils in many areas with subsitence farming and growing population. No and limited access to sanitation facilities in public places and institutions.

Implementation of EcoSan in rural households requires initial training of communities through community based organisations. The communities easily adopts EcoSan technology when economic benefits are emphasised. Revolving fund scheme does well in the area as the money from the toilet in terms of sold agricultural products is saved for investment and to build other toilets (called ''factories'').

Small town, area of 30 km2, and aproximately 70,000 people population. Less than 5% of household and businesses are connected to sewer system which is connected to a poorly functioning treatment facility. The town has five public toilets managed by the municipal council which are in an appalling state. The public toilets are therefore not conductive to healthy and comfortable living conditions. Naivasha Bus Park is located in the town center. It operates 24 hours a day for overland buses.The bus park is surrounded by residential areas where households mainly depend on individual or shared toilets. The water supply situation is chatacterised by unreliable water supply and insufficient quantities supplied (partly due to power shortages).

The 4 UDDTs built were part of a $50,000.00 project. Money was raised to Build a Dormitory (Rodney & Robin House) which is housing 40 students, a drilled Water Well, which was to supply clean water to the School and surrounding community for at least the next 20 years. As pert of the project, 400 students and staff were supplied with Mosquito Nets to help prevent Malaria, thereby savings lots of lives each year.

Yes
Double-vault UDDT: Faeces are collected in two vaults underneath a plastic, urine separating squatting pan, where they are dried. There are two chambers, which are used alternatively and help in avoiding handling of unsanitised human excreta. When the first vault is full, the defecation hole is closed, and the squatting pan is transferred to the second vault. The urine is diverted by a funnel or specially designed toilet into a urine container underneath the toilet. The basic design parameters include waste production for sizing of the chambers. Faeces chambers have a volume of approx. 560 liters (length, width and height: 750 x 1,100 x 750The project has already created more interest in agricultural production as most people were not aware of reuse of human excreta as fertiliser. As a result of the project, the community members have formed a revolving fund where the extra income from the use of the EcoSan facilities is used for construction of more toilets for the members of the community based organisation. The experience has shown that contributions by the beneficiary are essential for ownership of the facility.SuSana case study, 'Implementation of urine diversion dehydration toilets by Community Based Organisation, Ugunja District, Western Kenya'.

Kyrgyzstan is among the poorest countries of the former Soviet Union. Its population in the rural areas faces many problems – bad sanitary conditions are among them. Kyrgyzstan’s National Statistics claim that only 12% of the rural population has access to improved sanitation. Outdoor pit-latrines are the norm. They are a cause for ground- and drinking water contamination, many infectious diseases, and also infant mortality.

Access to clean drinking water and sanitation facilities is one of urban Malawi’s most pressing problems. Slums throughout the country lack adequate toilet facilities, and outbreaks of cholera and other waterborne diseases resulting from poor sanitation are rife. At the same time, the availability of clean drinking water in informal settlements is also a major issue. Practices by the water boards controlling piped water supply into slum communities, as well as the use of unmetered taps, have resulted in residents being charged exorbitant water rates. Water points in slum communities are also not strategically placed and are usually concentrated close to main roads or on the outside of settlements, making it extremely difficult for residents to access them.

Subsidy: Initially 2.10$, after success was proven: dropped to 1.40$; no more than that of a traditional pit latrine improvement program
Arborloo (planted tree in shallow pit), Fossa Alterna (moveable superstructure for two alternately operated pits) and Skyloo latrines (two brick vaults above ground level).All latrines use an 80 cm diameter domed slab as the basic building unit - only raw material that has to be imported is cement.
Success of first operating systems promoted ecosan in the whole community; latrines for children with smaller sizes were a big success; Urine diverting toilet also promoted but its high costs and complexity of construction has precluded widespread use; dedicated individuals are needed, who became enthusiastic about ecosan to drive it forward.

Municipality of more than 35,000 -- including an integrated ecological sanitation closed–loop system in one periurban community.
Tepoztlán, a small urban centre 70 km south of Mexico City, has a special history of environmental activism, strong municipality presents enormous contrasts that range from poor indigenous villages to luxurious weekend homes. That socio-economic situation is, in many ways, a microcosm of contrasting conditions prevalent in much of Mexico and Latin America. Tepoztlán is located at the top of its watershed, within a national park and an important biological corridor. This municipality has been included in a comprehensivedevelopment program, sponsored by the Ministry of Tourism, which aims at conserving the natural and cultural heritage of 16 distinctive Mexican towns. As a tourist destination the municipality is both politically and environmentally strategic. Because of its high location Tepoztlán does not receive waters from upstreamvillages. But the clean water flowing down the mountains, after passing through various settlements, gets polluted with greywater and black water as well as by garbage dumped into the ravines and rivers. An estimated 70% of the urban population uses waterborne toilet systems emptying into septic tanks that seldom conform to acceptable standards. Adequate emptying and maintenance rarely take place; so the improperly treated effluent drains into the soil and underground fissures. Recent water quality tests indicate that the aquifers, which supply water to most of the population, are being contaminated by nitrates and

1. Urine-diverting dry toilets, constructed with passive solar design and built with natural or traditional materials. Over 30 UD dry toilets have been installed with: one dehydrating chamber with 2 large capacity plastic containers (on wheels) for faeces collection, storage and pre-treatment; urine harvesting in 20 l plasticcontainers; south facing vent pipe and fly trap2. Low-cost shallow pit composting sanitation system prototypes for poor peri-urban and rural populations (Arborloo and Fossa Alterna).Project has resulted in: integration of dry toilets within households, improving security for users, especially women and children; creation of a network of alliances; demystification of human urine for use as fertiliser; Resistance to the project due to: lack of knowledge, scepticism, lack of understanding of the benefits, lack of experience in government personnel.

The toilet model itself consists of a double-vault urine-diversion dehydration toilet (UDDT) and a urinal; both are produced out of fibreglass in Ulaanbaatar. Both vaults have a drawer-like design that makes the removal of urine containers or dried faeces very easy. In order to prevent the formation of “stalagmites” from frozen faeces, the initial toilet was improved with a mesh where the faeces fall upon. This guarantees a better aeration and drying of the excreta, and a more even distribution even in winter.

245 domestic latrines; 5 latrines for primary schools; 10 public latrines; 2 latrines for rural health post --> 5200 persons
Department for Water and Sanitation, Provincial Directorate for Public works in the Sofala province Mozambique
In 2000 devastating floods affected the Sofala province in Mozambique and more than 4000 people were resettled in the locality of Guara Guara. Sanitation was the major problem since the ground water table was high and all the emergency water supply was provided from shallow aquifers. First 16 emergency latrines were constructed using drums of 210 liters’ capacity designed to prevent groundwater contamination.
During the resettlement period the families had already started to construct low cost latrines but encountered difficulties since they always would reach the groundwater table in digging the pit. Their solution to the problem was to pile up earth and then make a hole in it. Projects with pit latrines soon abandoned the area due to challenges with the groundwater. The acceptance and understanding of the EcoSan technology was based on the obvious advantages and the technology was quickly accepted by the future users and the local administration. To get the concept accepted by advisors and donors took 1 ½ year – a considerably longer time.

Double-vault UDDT
Urine as fertiliser and dried faeces as soil conditioner
See PDS 027 (website below)

Family UDDT: 478 US$ per familyPublic UDDT: 700 US$ per toilet
The chosen technology is a simple squatting platform for urine and faeces separation made of local material (concrete and cement - plastic is not very durable in the hot humid climate) with ventilated double vault collection and drying chambers above ground, oriented to the sun. The latrine building includes a shower compartment.
- The technology is well accepted as a feasible solution that can even be realised self-dependently by the users in cooperation with local artisans.- It is accepted as a durable and long lasting investment compared to emergency latrines or other interimdevices.- The major project hinderings in the beginning were worries about cultural conflicts and costs, which were invalidated by practical experience.

Furthermore political priorities have led to the decision of implementing a vacuum sewage system. Although the community is in favour of the dry UDS solution, because more than 30% will not be able to pay the water bill, government is financing only a capital project.

Urine bank in Siddhipur
100 UDDTs are available for collection of urine in Sidhipur,and will generate 35000 litres of urine which will be available for use as plant fertiliser annually.
The urine bank, which is a spin-off from the project "Struvite recovery from Urine in Nepal" (STUN), is a pilot project aimed at increasing the reuse of nutrients from human urine. Source-separated urine iscollected from households which do not have a use for it and is sold for 1 Nepalese Rupee (or 1 Euro-cent) per litre to farmers who use it to fertilise their crops. The entire urine of one adult would therefore fetch a price of about EUR 5.5 per year. The urine bank is a project supported by EAWAG Switzerland) and UN-HABITAT.

The concept of ecological sanitation, was formally introduced in Nepal in 2002/3 by the Departement of Water Supply and Sewerage and WHO. Pilot project finished, evaluation phase finished.
Nagarkot (16 units), Tiggni (21 units), Siddhipur (100 units) , Khokana (57 units), Techho (215 units), Pyngaon (50 units), Parsa (81 units), Sunwal (110 units) , Dharechwok (42 units).
A total of 1135 UDTs (dry and wet). Assuming an average household size of 6 (from country list), 6810 users.
Currently organizations such as Development Network, Community Development Forum Environment and Public Health Organization, LUMANTI, Water Aid Nepal, UN-Habitat, Nepal Water for Health, Center for Integrated Urban Development, Plan Nepal, Rural Village Water Resource Management (RVWRMP)/FINNIDA, Practical Action, SEAM-N and UNICEF etc.
UD toilets introduced in Siddupur about 1999 by WHO. An NGO gave demonstrations on urine separation and biogas process. Based on these skills, a farmer Jeevan started eco-farming practices. Jeevan learnt about urine separation and biogas processes. After this he switched from his chicken farming, which was running at a loss, to vegetable production with eco-farming. Since then eco-farming has spread to several villages .
urine; faeces; blackwater
UD toilets; biogas digester
Fertiliser; biogas for lighting and cooking
No
Jeevan has stopped using any chemical fertiliser, rather substituting urine and cow manure as fertiliser. Urine drip irrigation used to fertilise an acre of crops. Household biogas plant provides lighting and fuel for cooking twice a day.
Experience of ecofarming in Siddhipur village by Farmer Jeevan:- Urine and cow manure used to replace chemical fertiliser effectively, saves 7000 Rs per year spent previously on chemical fertiliser.- Farmer earns profit of 10-15000 Rs per month from ecofarming.- Biogas plant provides lighting and cooking fuel, saves 1000 Rs (per year?) spent previously on firewood.WHO 2009, 'Ecofarming- a winning complement to ecological sanitation' Environmental Health Update, Vol. 4, No. 3, May 2009

Then the number of users should be changed from 210 to 7098? --> We decided not to include the Sulabh toilets!
The project is providing 5 numbers of urine-faeces diverting eco-san latrine in pilot scale each in 6 VDC (Total 35 number) to see the acceptability and use of this latrine.Assuming an average household size of 6 (from country list), 210 users.
(The project is also providing 1148 number of sulabh pour-flush latrine.)
RVWRMP is bilateral development cooperation in water resources sector between the Government of Nepal and Government of Finland.
There is no scarcity of water as a handpump is installed in each household. The working area of this project is rural area to reach the poorest of the poor.

(Sulabh flush compost toilet is eco-friendly, technically appropriate, socio-culturally acceptable and economicallyaffordable. It is an indigenous technology and the toilet can easily be constructed by local labour and materials. It provides health benefits by safe disposal of human excreta on-site. It consists of a pan with a steep slope and an especially designed trap with waterseal requiring only 1.5 to 2 litres of water for flushing, thus helping conserve water. It does not need scavengers to clean the pits. There are two pits of varying size and capacity depending on the number of users ( Sulabh international). In the project, the toilet The settlement has become cleaner and people have started to be motivated in hand washing after using the toilet.
In Nepal which is predominantly male dominated society and where women have a low status and position, these changes in women's roles and responsibilities through the female LLB represent a dramatic leap towards the empowerment of women and towards equality between men and women.

Grey water is treated in a process train consisting of sedimentation and a trickling filter. A part of the treated grey water is led into a surface-flow constructed wetland from where it is led into a retention pond; another part is used as irrigation water in a small greenhouse.The black water was at first composted in Clivus Multrum composting toilet systems but the disused.Rain water from the roofs is collected and used in a number of collective laundry machines.
- After many problems with smell, flies and a disturbed composting process, these systems were removed and replaced by (low) flush toilets. The black water is currently discharged into the municipal sewer. Rain water of the entire neighborhood is infiltrated.
The tenants are responsible for the in-house equipment (toilet, pipes, etc.) and take part in the maintenance of the pond system (yearly removal of the plants) and the small greenhouse. The housing company is responsible for the treatment and maintenance of the grey and rainwater system. The effluent quality of the grey water system is not monitored on a regular basis.

Total 6 facultative pond / constructed wetland constructed and wastewater conveyance pipe laid for a length of 15 km including the collection pipes and main conveyer. The treated effluent is discharged in to the river. All together 6 greenhouse are constructed above the anaerobic reactor and baffle filter to assess the improvement in temperature in severe winter. This was first year and several activities were still going on during Jan – Feb so actual benefit of having greenhouse on top of the plant could not be ascertained yet
The initial finding is that the plant is relatively expensive for both community and the UNICEF (material contribution from community 40 USD per capita in kind and Cash contribution from UNICEF 50 USD per capita). Evaluation is expected in July – August 2010 and we expect to find the appropriateness of the component installed and overall operational efficiency of the plant. This pilot DEWATS was expensive, much beyond the UNICEF’s standard sanitation intervention unless the upcoming evaluation recommends

The Peruvian capital Lima (8 million inhabitants) is situated in one of the world’s driest areas (9 mm rainfall per year). 15% of the total Peruvian area is a desert, but unfortunately 60% of the population of Peru lives there, 30% thereof in Lima. All of them are affected by water limitation; especially the poorest people live with an extreme water stress situation: 1.5 million inhabitants are using only 20 litres water per capita per day.
The education centre “San Christoferus” is located in a desert area in urban Lima. It is a care facility for 35 handicapped children in the age range of 5 to 18 years. The 0.6 ha school area includes an outdoor area and six separate buildings at two locations, including a bakery, a laundry and a kitchen. The children are mentally disabled and many of them also have physical disabilities and birth defects of various kinds (sadly, there are only few institutions and opportunities for disabled children and adults in Peru). Six teachers supported by international volunteers take care of them from 8.00-14.30 o’clock. They spend their time playing music, baking, doing handicraft, cooking and since 2007 cultivating the garden, or just playing indoors and outdoors.
Before the start of the project, wastewater from 12 flush toilets (15 litres per flush), from bathrooms with showers and 3 kitchens, 1 laundry and 1 bakery was disposed to the public sewer system.

A number of measures to improve the facility have been undertaken since the operation started. The header tanks were covered to minimise the odour during the filling process.Relocation housing area for 676 houses (average household size of 5 people, although some housescontain more than one family); design figure: 3380 people.

The total cost for the construction of the constructed wetland are about 200,000 US$ including cost for consultancy and labour. The cost for operation and maintenance are estimated at 1,600 US$ per year. This figure does not include the cost for electricity because it has not been recorded yet.
- The total surface area is 2680 m2 and the wetland has a specific surface area of 0.9 m2 per person (a relatively low design figure and hence “optimistic” design – made possible by the low per capita flowrate, the sewage pre-settling in the septic tanks and the tropical temperatures).- The total depth of the filter basins is 2 m (for module 1) and 1.2 m (for module 2) from the concrete bottom to the top of the wall (including the drainage systems and about 0.60 m of free board). The filter layer itself is 0.6 m in both cases. The water flows by gravity through the distribution system and a constant head assures an even distribution of the wastewater over the whole area of the cell.The vertical soil filter in combination with the horizontal soil filter achieves good treatment results. The effluent quality complies with the standards for irrigation water. Labour force is comparably cheap. This option saved implementation cost for a bigger pump and reduces the operating costs for electricity. The inventiveness of City Engineering staff and the responsiveness of the consultants made it possible to continuously adjust the design to the local conditions.1.

Bayawan City is located in the south-western area of Negros Island in the Central Visayas region, about 700 km southeast of Manila. It has a population of about 105,000. The city has 7 barangays1 that are classified as urban and sub-urban areas, and 21 barangays that are classified as rural. 80% of the population of Bayawan lives in these rural areas which cover 83% of the land area.
In the project area only 10% of the population are served with safe drinking water. The majority relies on dug wells and springs. Only 1% of the rural population has a household connection. 63% of the households have a toilet. These are mainly pour-flush or pit/VIP latrines.

Double-vault UDDTs: 300 - 340 US$. incl. material and labour cost. Single-vault UDDT: 220 and 250 US$. Costs for operation and maintenance have not been monitored but are estimated at 30 US$ per year.
Double-vault UDDTs: designed for households with 5 to 6 members and a 12-month storage time for the faeces. The required faeces storage vault volume per person was estimated at 110 liters. Based on these design parameters, each faeces collection vault has a storage capacity of 0.7 m3.
Single-vault UDDTs: have mobile collection containers in a faeces vault volume of about 1 m3. The collection containers consist of used plastic or steel drums equipped with bin liners. When the bags are full they are stored in the vault next to the container or in another safe place if the vault is full.The planning and implementation process took much longer than originally planned because the project area covered all rural barangays of Bayawan City. Some of these UDDTs had not been used at all because the households didn’t feel confident to handle them. Refresher trainings resolved the problem and all facilities are used and well maintained. Monitoring visits ensure that the users can discuss issues and ideas with the members of the ecosan TWG. 1.

Local government units of Lapasan, Macasandig, Kauswagan, Carmen and Gusa; City Government of Cagayan de Oro (Philippines), German Embassy Manila, Philippines; Center for International Migration
Allotment gardens for urban poor families had already been set up in the city districts (barangays). The land being used for the gardens is owned by private individuals. With the city government as a project partner, the use of the land was negotiated with the private owners and fixed with a written memorandum of agreement. Vegetable production is the main purpose of the gardens wherein the families cultivate vegetable crops with technical support from PUVeP. The families consume and sell some of their products. The member families of the different barangays had earlier expressed their need to install toilets in their gardens.
Separate streams of urine and faeces respectively.
Double-vault UDDT; waterless urinal
Yes
Urine, after 6 months of storage, is added to compost heaps. It adds nitrogen to the compost thus accelerating the decomposition process. It is also used as a side-dress fertilizer (second fertilizer application) after diluting it with water before soil application. Faeces as soil conditioner.
The total estimated cost in the construction of one UDD toilet is PhP 27,365.60 (€ 437). Labour cost in this case was not included because the work force was provided by the gardeners.
Double-vault UDDT:Floor area: 2.00 m X 1.50 m ; Floor Elevation: 0.9 m; Ventilation pipe: 2” in diameter PVC; plastic container for collection and storage of urine; Nipa for the roofing Plain G.I. Ridge roll; For the chamber door plain G.I is used painted with black to increase the absorption of heat from the sunlight. 4x4 coconut wood for the post in 4 corners of the toilets. For the urinal pipe 1” diameter also for the urinal drain difference.
A study on the socio-economic benefits was conducted on the ecosan projetcs. All of them consider the use of the UDDT as far better than open urination and defecation. Besides the missing privacy and washing facilities there is a high risk of snake bites and harmful insects. Few gardeners, however, are not using the toilets because they prefer to go to their own toilets in their houses which are located nearby. Other gardeners feel not yet comfortable using it because they are to shy to use it. This results from the fact that 1.

Most families have poor sanitary conditions because they lack proper toilet facilities. 42% of the residents have no toilets and they just defecate in open fields or in creeks and rivers. This results to prevalence of parasites, worms, and transmission of communicable diseases within the local residents.

Yes
Urine is used as fertiliser in household vegetable gardens, fruit orchard, and seedlings in the nursery. Faeces not used.
The UDDT design with 2 chambers was adopted from ecosan projects of the allotment gardens in Cagayan de Oro City.
Some people did not participate, distrusted or even opposed the ecosan project because it aimed at changing existing sanitation norms and practices. It became clear that social acceptance cannot be reached by a one-time activity, since it may be very difficult to change long-held religious beliefs and cultural practices. It shows that it is important to involve the community from the very planning phase to the full implementation and to provide for a proactive, consistent, clear and reliable communication with all SuSanA case study, 'Rural community and school urine diversion dehydration toilets in Misamis Oriental, Libertad, Initao and Manticao' (see website below)

2003 - search for solution sanitation problem. In August 2004, the city government, CAPS, and 3 other local nongovernment organizations had formed a partnership to mainstream ecological sanitation in the city. The project in the pilot sites began with the selection of a volunteer household that will use the dry toilet for 3 months. After the 3-month trial period, applications for ecosan toilets began pouring in from the residents of the pilot barangays, Barangay San Agustin (coastal) and Barangay Nagyubuyuban (upland).

WASTE of the Netherlands through CAPS and the Philippine-German Cooperation, Water Program towards an Integrated Water Resources Managment
The residents of coastal and upland villages in San Fernando City polluted their drinking water with their own excreta. There are around 426 households competing for the use of the village’s 3 communal toilets. More than 500 people line up to use each of these toilets everyday. Water is scarce and few users care to keep the toilet clean. They cook only easily digestible food to avoid indigestion; they rarely entertain for fear that visitors may need to use a toilet during the visit; they delay urinating and bowel movement; and they contend with diarrhea and gastroenteritis on a daily basis.

UDDT
PhP 1 million (US$20,000) for constructing the toilet facilities

Skepticism about the approach is ever-present so the need to build awareness is constant. Likewise, an appropriate UDDT design for the handicapped still has to be made; a sustainable source of ash has to be developed; and the design of toilet sub-structures in flood-prone areas has to be improved to ensure that the system is not compromised by floods.

80% of the Romanian population are not connected to a central drinking water supply. Groundwater is however often polluted (contamination caused by pesticides and some of the nitrates are a result of agricultural practices, the faecal bacteria and the rest of the nitrates are a result of the traditional and widespread use of pit-latrines, which infiltrate their liquid contents into the sub-soil, have a bad smell and are often built very close to household wells), rural population having health problems as a result of using polluted drinking water

Compost will be used by local farmers for fruit trees or crops and urine as fertiliser for agriculture. The water of the washbasins infiltrates the underground after passing through a gravel-sand bed.
For each toilet there are two easily accessible composting-chambers (vaults) with a sealed floor made from concrete. The vaults are used alternating in a 1 year rhythm. The volume of each chamber is 1.2 m² with a useful volume of 1 m². The floor of the compost vaults has a slope of 1 % to drain any leachate. The middle of the floor has one big hole to the collection chambers covered by the squatting pan. When one chamber is full the pan has to be turned round 180° in order to situate the faeces whole above the empty chamber.Ventilation pipes with fly nets were installed from the composting-chambers to above the roof to avoid odour and flies. By the special design of the compost- chamber-dividing-walls only one ventilation pipe was installed for both chambers (compared to former designs where every chamber had one pipe).It is important to keep urine and faeces separate as most of the pathogens are contained in the faeces. Double vault urine diverting toilets is a low cost, very fast and easy to realise method to protect groundwater. With proper education even 6 year old children understand the principle of urine diverting toilets as a part of ecological sanitation. The new toilet system was accepted very well by the teachers and the pupils.Documents are to down load from website www.wecf.eu/publication or availableby contacting WECF.

Generally, the sanitation infrastructure in rural districts, including school sanitation, is under the supervision of the districts due to Rwanda’s decentralisation policy. The district has personnel in charge of health, education and social affairs. This unit is coordinated by the social development coordinator. At the national level, there are three ministries which are concerned with public health, child-friendly school environment and adequate sanitation infrastructure. Those ministries are the ministry of health, ministry of education and the ministry of infrastructure, respectively. Rwandan education policy is emphasising primary school education for all, where all Rwandans will have free access to 9 years universal primary education starting from February 2010. But inadequate sanitation and poor hygienic conditions at schools result in high drop-out rates due to illness.

Single-vault UDDT

Yes
Reuse of dried faeces in school garden; urine is used to fertilise coffee plantation in one school and drained into the soil in the second school.
- The single vault UDDTs were designed based on an average of 700 pupils per primary school (the current number of pupils is higher however). The toilet cubicles are 1 m x 1 m (length by width), and the faeces vaults are the same plan area as the cubicles and are 1 m high (therefore total volume of the faeces vaults: 1 m3).- The ventilation of the faeces vaults is provided with PVC pipes installed at the back of the UDDTs. The pipes start in the vault and reach up to approximately 75 cm above the roof and have a diameter of 110 mm. The openings are covered with fly screens to prevent flies from entering.- At Kiruhura, separate cubicles of the UDDTs were assigned for each class in addition to providing separate toilets for boys and girls. This measure proved to be very effective in enhancing the students’ ownership for the respective toilet cubicles, especially when it is reflected in the maintenance rules whereby each class cleans their own toilet cubicle(s).- Maintenance has become an issue because the UDDTs have been constructed by FEA without involvement of local people (due to time constraints at the time when the project was implemented). This is the case of Kiruhura primary school where two compartments of UDDTs are not functioning anymore because the urine pipes became clogged after only a short time. There is nobody in that place who can

Rwanda lacks sanitation- very far from reaching the MDGs. In the context of acheiving MGD and Vision 2020, the Ministry of Lands, Environmentment, Forest, Water, and Mines (MINTERE) has signed a protocol of agreement with the Common Development fund for execution and works for 100 blocks of UDDT toilets. Out of 100 toilets, 10 public toilets are already built and are in use while 16 are in construction phase. In Nyamagable the UDDTs are provided because of lack of adequate sanitation facilities and water scarcity in the region and the school is not connected to a water supply system.

Project period is 5 years from 2009 to 2013. - as pilot project in Rusizi and Nyamasheke (2009-2010)Ecosan latrines are promoted at national level and currently implanted in different districts around the country. Promotion is supported by GoR and other development partners including UNICEF. They can be found mainly in Northern, Western & Southern Regions. Eco-san latrines have been installed - as public latrines along main highways in Northern & Southern Regions; in some schools mainly in Musanze, Rusizi & Burera Districts; in households mainly in Burera (currently over 1000 households) and Rusizi & Nyamasheke Districts (currently about 500 households) have installed.

Urine Diversion & biogas. The common latrine model promoted is urine diversion (UD) - Faeces are sanitized (left to decompose in safe place for 6 - 12 months depending on quantities, sunshine or temperatures) before they can be utilized as fertilizer.
Faeces are sanitized (left to decompose in safe place for 6 - 12 months depending on quantities, sunshine or temperatures) before they can be utilized as fertilizer. Urine can be utilized on farms to fertilize crops immediately after collection, but normally stored for 12 - 30 days to ensure it is properly hygienized.
High crop yields from farms fertilized with urine and/or decomposed manure have been achieved. In some cases, yields have more than doubled compared to unfertilized plots. Highest yields have been obtained with addition of urine and manure. Compared to chemical fertilizer (NPK), higher yields have been obtained using ecosan products. More than ever before, men are now keen to build and/or to participate in cleaning eco-san family latrines. They are mostly

Eco-sanitation or compost toilets are comprised of a raised platform above two chambers, one full and composting, alternating with the other. Organic material is regularly added to the chambers to introduce carbon for composting, to oxygenate the composting process and neutralise odours. It takes roughly five months for pathogen free compost to be produced. To help prevent the toilet from smelling, faeces andurine are not allowed to mix, as a chemical reaction between the two creates odour. Therefore, a pipe takesurine to a separate chamber. This may be used to nourish soils for crop growth.
- Toilets in Gbongay village had been completed and used. Each toilet unit was maintained and cleaned by the people who lived in the area.

Urine diversion dehydration toilets (UDDTs) to improve sanitation conditions, however without reuse because of safety concerns
Provide adequate sanitation for 200,000 families, the eThekwini project has approximately 30,000 UDDTs after 2 years work.
With funding from the central governement in the form of municipal infrastructure or housing grants, the municipality assists low-income households to improve their latrines. To empty a VIP latrine $150 is needed, which is very high, due to the high costs for sanitation in these areas, the municipality promotes UDDTs as an alternative to pit latrines to avoid the pit emptying costs. 90,000 households using conventional on-site facilities, 30,000 households connected to septic tanks and conservancy tanks 60,000 uses VIP. Majority of the households (425,000) are connected to the sewerage network. eThekwini's UDDT project has already funded the construction of 74,000 UDDTs. Athough, these households are given information about how to dispose of the waste hygienially, the programme is not an ecosan programme, because the municipality does not promote excreta reuse due to health concerns.

Not reused at this stage. This project is nevertheless regarded as an important ecosan project as the setup would allow an easy and safe reuse of urine and faeces in the future (if there are drivers for reuse).
Making the assumption that the agricultural conditions are 'average' and assuming that the households receive a financial benefit for the sale of the crop, reuse enables a financial saving by reducing the amount of expenditure on food. UDDT become attractive when excreta are reused.

Worldwide list of documented ecosan projects by various organisations
Notes: - A more detailed list (with type of technology, reuse system, experiences etc.) is available on request (e-mail: [email protected]). - The list includes: sustainable sanitation / ecosan projects with reuse of some or all treated waste streams in principle being aimed for (even if reuse is not fully achieved, e.g. UDDTs where urine is infiltrated are included in the list); only domestic sanitation projects. - Projects not included in the list: small research projects; industrial wastewater reuse; non-reuse projects - Number of users is only a rough estimate and may include one-time users (mobile urinals) or school pupils etc.
- Several smaller projects are often grouped together (thus the total project number is larger than the count of 307 in this table) - If you spot any errors or omissions, please contact us ([email protected]). - This list was compiled by GTZ team "sustainable sanitation - ecosan" with input from many people.
