Sustainable Sanitation: Practical Applications from Toilet to Field

Saturday, 23 August, 09:00 – 14:00

Visit sites in the vicinity of Stockholm where urine diverting sanitation systems are implemented in full scale! The field visit will take you to Gebers, a condominium housing where 35 apartments in a multi-storey building have urine diverting toilets. Faeces are collected and composted on-site. Urine is collected for reuse in agriculture. After Gebers, the field visit will take you to a farm close to Lake Bornsjön where field application of urine will be demonstrated, as well as storage tanks for urine. Take the chance of meeting and discussing with the farmer using urine collected in the Stockholm region. Ample time will be given to discussions on practical applications and institutional aspects of sustainable sanitation solutions.
