Fighting the urine blindness to provide more sanitation options

Abstract

South Africa is trying hard to improve sanitation in the country and presently a White Paper is being prepared to outline the sanitation policy. A brief look around the globe shows that most countries are facing sanitary problems, especially in the expanding cities in the Southern Hemisphere. There is a need to know what is being done in other countries in order to extend the policy options. This article provides such information and focuses on excreta disposal systems which use little or no water, and various ways to use the end-products of faeces and urine.
