BLACK WATER (SEWAGE) TREATMENT TECHNOLOGY

Black water consists of faecal waste and anything that is allowed to mix with it including urine, toilet paper, garbage and grey water. Options for dealing with black water include pit toilets, the barrel fly-out system, semi-on-site treatment (dehydrating toilets, urine separation, composting), on-site treatment (incinerating, septic systems, tertiary wastewater treatment), and user carry-out.
