Short description of the project:
Disposal human waste in situ by an column-like facility; Evaporation liquid from raw sewage powered by solar-thermal energy; remove pathogens by raising temperature over 140C; preferred on existing, inexpensive, practical, multi-disciplinary techniques and methods to solve the great challenge in limited term.
Goal(s):
The goal of this project is to design a new system for hygienic and adequate pit/tank emptying and extraction.
Objectives:
1) Suitable sunny areas / countries (cover ~0.8 billion@ 2.6 billion without sanitation)
2) Meet the “off the grid, inexpensive, recover resources and remove the pathogens”
Start and end date: Nov, 2011~Mar 2013 , final report 1 May 2013
