2.1 Sanitation arrangements at household and community levels Is there one system that suits most conditions or must we choose and combine? Learning objectives: matching management with technology and local conditions Jan-Olof Drangert, Linköping University, Sweden
Changes in our perceptions of urban flows water non-organic items Household, community or city chemicals wastewater WWTP lake food Year 1900: nutrients from human waste were recycled ⇒ but disposal of glass and metal in latrine bins made this impossible ⇒ Human-derived nutrients went into the water cycle Year 2000: use of sewage sludge as fertiliser ⇒ but heavy metals and hormones in wastewater made this impossible ⇒ Sludge went to landfill or incineration Jan-Olof Drangert, Linköping University, Sweden
