  3. 2. Pathogen inactivation and quantitative microbial risk assessment for Peepoo sanitation system, Kibera

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Linnea Eriksson; Lisa Sundberg; [2020]
    Keywords : Quantitative microbial risk assessment; ammonia sanitisation; faeces; risk assessment; inactivation model; pathogen; Ascaris; E. coli; Campylobacter; Enterococcus; sanitation system; sanitisation technology;

    Abstract : Unsafe sanitation systems poses a risk for pathogen transmission, wherefore it is important to both inactivate pathogens present in human excreta and conduct safe sanitation systems from use to end-use. The Peepoo toilet, using ammonia sanitisation, have been suggested as a low-cost sanitation solution and is implemented in schools in Kibera, an urban slum in Kenya. READ MORE
