Abstract

This book presents a state-of-the-art review of decentralized sanitation and reuse (DESAR). It starts by discussing the historical development of (centralized) wastewater treatment and examining waste and wastewater characteristics and collection. The major part of the book focuses technical solutions (both low and high-tech) for on-site collection and transport of concentrated waste streams. The remaining sections look at the environmental, health, sociological, economic, architectural and urban aspects of DESAR.
