Mix or NoMix? Urine Source Separation as Alternative in Urban Water Management

7 March 2007, 9.30 –16.30,
ETH Zurich, Main building, Auditorium Maximum

Is urine source separation and treatment a viable option for modern urban wastewater management? This was the question addressed by the transdisciplinary Novaquatis project, which explored topics ranging from technology development, ecotoxicology and social scientific aspects to initial implementation in pilot projects. The results indicate that urine separation is a highly versatile innovation, offering advantages in a variety of scenarios.
