Sustainable sanitation technology options for urban slums
A.Y. Katukiza,Mariska Ronteltap,Charles Niwagaba,Jan Willem Foppen,Frank Kansiime,Piet N.L. Lens +5 more
TL;DR: This paper reviews the characteristics of waste streams and the potential treatment processes and technologies that can be adopted and applied in urban slums in a sustainable way and recognition of the potential of anaerobic co-digestion for treatment of excreta and organic solid waste for energy recovery as an alternative to composting.
Journal ArticleDOI
A value proposition: resource recovery from faecal sludge—can it be the driver for improved sanitation?
Stefan Diener,Swaib Semiyaga,Charles Niwagaba,Ashley Murray Muspratt,Jean Birane Gning,Mbaye Mbéguéré,Joseph Effah Ennin,Christian Zurbrügg,Linda Strande +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the potential for resource recovery from innovative faecal sludge treatment processes to generate a profit that could help sustain the sanitation service chain was evaluated in urban areas of Sub-Saharan Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inactivation of bacteria and viruses in human urine depending on temperature and dilution rate.
TL;DR: The study indicated that the current recommended storage time for urine of 6 months at 20 degrees C or higher is safe for unrestricted use and could probably be shortened, especially for undiluted urine, showing that urine dilution rate is of great importance for pathogen inactivation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in water, soil and plants in wetlands and agricultural areas in Kampala, Uganda.
TL;DR: This investigation demonstrated PFASs entry into the terrestrial food chain and drinking water resources in Kampala, Uganda and demonstrates PFAS-specific partitioning behaviour in different matrices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selection of sustainable sanitation technologies for urban slums — A case of Bwaise III in Kampala, Uganda
TL;DR: Using the selection method, technologies such as Urine Diversion Dry Toilet (UDDT) and biogas latrines were identified to be potentially feasible sanitation solutions for Bwaise III, a slum area in Kampala (Uganda).
