Santiago Septien Stringel, Kirthi Rampersad, Brent Yelland, Talente Mthembu, Nikhil Pillay, Alexis Coppejans, Glen Snedden, Jonathan Pocock (2024) Development of an urine evaporation solution for innovative re-engineered sanitation systems
In the sector of wastewater management and sustainable sanitation, the practice of urine separation and valorisation can offer reuse water and nutrients for crop production. However, the effective realization of urine separation necessitates the concurrent development of urine treatment systems. While membrane filtration techniques have been employed to concentrate urine, these options are unable to concentrate urine beyond a certain threshold. This limitation underscores the […]
