Descrição
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 source separation (urine from faeces) integrated in a biogas or composting decentralized process.
