Manually-driven decentralized Vortex bioreactors for the processing of (faecal sludge and) wastewater Various documents on results from research grant Allen, M. (2013)
This library entry contains background documents and results for a grant that Mike Allen is leading and which is funded by the WSH Program of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation under the grant category Grand Challenges Explorations, Round 7 (GCE R7).
Further information and a discussion is available on the SuSanA discussion Forum, see link below.
Short description of the project:
The bioreactor will find application in a wide variety of sanitation systems in a large number of countries: it is an extremely versatile tool for water sterilization. In this project, we will be focusing on testing the bioreactor as a means of treating the effluent separated from high BOD load sludge before further treatment, reuse or discharge.
