rainwater harvesting (South Africa)

Image by Sustainable sanitation
As mentioned during our conversation please receive pictures from the Bulungula project (Eastern Cape – Wild Coast). This place was mentioned by Richard Holden on the ecosan community forum on June 4th’08. Actually, in this place greywater and urine from 5 UDD toilets + 2 waterless urinals are recycled into a banana tree circle. Reed beds are also used as a treatment. They are self sufficient with solar + wind power and have a good rainwater harvesting system. Faeces will be composted once they will switch to sawdust. So far, faeces and sand are buried in the forest. Water and sanitation projects are developed in the community.
