Technologies of Ecosan Systems
Determining ecosan systems as ecological sanitation is not easy, for it is not just one specific technology, but a new approach based on an ecosystem-oriented view of material flows.
The following diagram gives an overview of the different collection, treatment and reuse possibilities of the five flow streams considered in ecological sanitation systems:
Further information on ecosan technologies can be found in "Ecological Sanitation" by Winblad et al., in "Toilets that make compost" by Peter Morgan or in the gtz-ecosan technical data sheets, among other relevant literature.

Famous quotes containing the word systems:
“People stress the violence. That’s the smallest part of it. Football is brutal only from a distance. In the middle of it there’s a calm, a tranquility. The players accept pain. There’s a sense of order even at the end of a running play with bodies stewn everywhere. When the systems interlock, there’s a satisfaction to the game that can’t be duplicated. There’s a harmony.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)
