Systems using separate treatment of excreta and greywater provide many new solutions to sanitary challenges in rural and peri-urban areas, but these source separating systems can also be used to sewer urban areas in a sustainable way.

Source separating systems facilitates production of bioenergy (biogas) as part of blackwater treatment. The gas production is greatly improved by co-treatment of blackwater and other waste resources as organic household waste.6

Conclusions - source separation

Water saving up to 40% due to use of water efficient toilets. If greywater is treated and recycled >90% water saving is possible, thus reducing the water footprint by a factor 10. Greywater can be treated to bathing water in compact in-house systems or in simple biological systems integrated in green areas. This opens for local discharge, groundwater recycling, use in irrigation or uprading to potable water quality through e.g. membrane filtration.

Conclusions - source separationIt is assumed that an immediate transfer to source separating systems in urban areas will initially be more costly than continuing the present systems, but with time environmental benefits will make source separating systems more cost efficient (Jenssen and Vatn 2001) In the environmental building at Klosterenga in Oslo a dual plumbing system with vacuum toilets was calculated to the same investment cost as traditional plumbing.In Kuching (a city of 500000 people) in Malaysia with a non existent sewer collection system a source separating system with processing of blackwater to biogas and fertilizer and local greywater treatment was calculated to be 25% cheaper than centralized collection and biological treatment.

system, especially:Consider to go straight to water-saving and recycling, often

decentralized and source separating sanitary systems
