Drying of Faecal Sludge from VIP Latrines Through a Medium Infrared Radiation Process
(African Journals, 2020-07)In order to treat faecal sludge from ventilated improved pit (VIP) latrines, eThekwini Municipality (Durban, South Africa) developed an infrared dryer, 'LaDePa' (Latrine Dehydration Pasteurization). Parameters that influence ... -
Effect of Drying on the Physical and Chemical Properties of Faecal Sludge for its Reuse
(Elsevier, 2020)This work explores the effect of drying on the chemical and physical properties of faecal sludge, and evaluates the reuse potential of the dried material. For the purpose of this study, the nutrient content, calorific value ... -
LaDePa’ Process for the Drying and Pasteurisation of Faecal Sludge from VIP Latrines using Infrared Radiation
(Elsevier, 2018)This paper studies a faecal sludge treatment process, LaDePa (Latrine Dehydration and Pasteurization), which includes: (i) the characterization of the rheological and plastic behaviour of faecal sludge in the feeding ... -
