Faecal Sludge Field Laboratory
a field laboratory for public health parameter and process control of Faecal Sludge Treatment Plants during humanitarian aid operations and in the development cooperation context
The Faecal Sludge Field Laboratory is an open-source development which can be used for process and effluent quality control of faecal sludge and wastewater treatment plants at site and close in-time. The Faecal Sludge Field Laboratory allows treatment plant operators to analyse the influent and effluent products (liquid, solid) for continuous monitoring and plant optimisation. The FSFL has been designed according to the following four design criteria:
