We can re-structure how we deal with human waste (not waste it)

Smart Toilet is developing and working on a new strategy for health and environment protection, simultaneously recovering the useful plant nutrient portion of the "toilet waste”.  

The present norm for toilet waste is cleaning and discharging the liquid portion of the sewage in the ocean, then dumping the sludge in deserted mining sites in the north of Sweden. The attempt to make sewage and sludge safe has failed. Moreover, renaming the sludge to "bio-solids” has failed. The public is keenly aware of the attempts to whitewash the sewage business and the impossibility to effectively separate what has been so effectively mixed together. There is nothing sustainable about mixing everything that society wants to get rid of! Consequently, sewers are, according to Oceana, the prime reason by far for our dying oceans.

In response to that, we have created the strategic concept of Smart Toilet which uses the latest technology and does not need flushing the toilet with drinking water. Regardless, the toilet still toilet remains clean and does not have user problems. 

This Smart Toilet strategy can shrink the toilet residue in long term with around 98% efficiency and store the remains for up to 40 years without any negative consequences. This concentrated end-product contains the usual main building blocks made of organic material NPK (or Nitrogen, Phosphorous Potassium) but more importantly, it also has a variety of micro-nutrients, known to add fragrance, taste and nutrition to fruits so that vegetables can grown in it. This can be done at a cost of nearly 10% of the old tech toilets and sewage treatment.  

Please visit our flipchart at  www.smarttoilet.se  for a simple explanation of the concept.  In spite of being a rather a new strategy, we have long term experience with our previous work with ”composting toilets” also known as ”long-term processing”.
