Keynote: Sun Gil Kim, On the Cusp of Innovative Non-sewered Sanitation Products with Integrated Toilet and Treatment

Many types of onsite sanitation systems are often built onsite or portable. They vary from dry or chemical toilets to water flush, from simple pits, container-based, composting, or septic systems with wide-ranging effectiveness in killing human enteric pathogens and reducing environmental pollutants. They typically require costly de-sludging, transport, off-site treatment and disposal.

ISO 30500 is an international voluntary standard that defines performance and operational requirements for integrated toilet and treatment products that protect human and environmental health. It is aspirational for the user, applicable globally, and is expected to drive down unit cost through mass production for the benefit of people in developing and developed countries.
