Scope:

National adoption of ISO 30500 which covers general safety and performance requirements for design and testing as well as sustainability considerations for non-sewered sanitation systems (NSSS). A NSSS, for the purposes of this document, is a prefabricated integrated treatment unit, comprising front end (toilet facility) and back end (treatment facility) components that a) collects, conveys, and fully treats the specific input within the system, to allow for safe reuse or disposal of the generated solid, liquid, and gaseous output, and b) is not connected to networked sewers or networked drainage systems.

Project need:

National adoption of an existing ISO standard for non-sewered sanitation systems that will benefit stakeholders
