Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The urns are made of bricks or pottery. Generally, the excreta are stored inside the first urn for 40 days. After that period most of the pathogens such as bacteria and parasite eggs are eliminated by the digestion process. If the front urn is full, the sludge flows to the rear urn which is mainly for the effluent. The rear one is covered with concrete slab to avoid odours and to stop the inflow of rainwater. If the rear urn is full, it has to be emptied and its contents can be used as a fertiliser in agriculture. The visited project site is in Pucheng County, which is about 120 km Northeast of Xi’an, Shaanxi, China. Photo by P. Feiereisen in August 2009.
