Description
The Ecological Sanitation (EcoSan) concept is a resources-oriented technology rooted on a material and energy recovery perspective. This approach may be used in rural zones or peri-urban areas or, on the contrary, in urban buildings when a strong sustainability and circular economy options are envisaged. Among the different EcoSan processes, the urine diversion toilet (UDT) is the one that provides a source separation, that is, the urine separation from faeces.
