Who, What, Where, Why and How ...
Undergraduate engineering design organisation, Latrinology Tech has begun designing a latrine and waste management system for the water based community of the Tonle Sap Lake in Cambodia.
The prototype has been designed to improve the quality of sanitation and prevent contamination of local water supplies and will be produced to service a single family in a stilted or floating home.
In conjunction with Engineers Without Boarders, Latrinology Tech aim to affordably and safely capture, store and process human and animal waste and boimass to produce compost and biogas power.
Once wastes are captured they are stored and undergo biological degradation by bacteria and fungi to form nutrient rich humas for agriculture. Biogases such as Methane are also captured and used for lighting and cooking.
