The Characterization of Feces and Urine: A Review of the Literature to Inform Advanced Treatment Technology
TL;DR: Variation in the volume and composition of urine is caused by differences in physical exertion, environmental conditions, as well as water, salt, and high protein intakes, which should always be considered if the generation rate, physical, and chemical composition of feces and urine is to be accurately predicted.
