Technology options for urban sanitation in India - A guide to decision making by WSP and MoUD (2008)

This guide by the Water and Sanitation Program and the Ministry of Urban Development, is meant to enable municipalities and urban local bodies make informed decisions on sanitation technologies.Read More

Poor sanitation facilities and the lack of sanitation facilities are a health hazard and exact a human toll on human health. Realising the magnitude of the problem and the resulting fallout, the Government of India has been increasing the funding for sanitation infrastructure via the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM). However, money alone cannot solve the problem. Urban local bodies and municipalities need sound advice on technological options, planning and implementation to ensure that the money is well spent and the sanitation projects cater to the need of the target audience.

Decentralised wastewater treatment in developing countries - A handbook by BORDA

DEWATS handbookThis handbook published by Bremen Overseas Research and Development Association (BORDA) is an outcome of a project titled “Low Maintenance Wastewater Treatment Systems - LOMWATS; Development of  Technologies and Dissemination Strategies.” The project had been financed by the Commission of the European Union, with substantial contribution by the State Office for Development Co-operation of the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen from October 1994 until April 1998.

This book aims at a target group, which is typical for decentralised technology implementation and consists of  people who are aware of the general problem and know something about possible solutions. However, their knowledge is too general on the one hand, or too specialised on the other to master the very typical problems which go together with decentralisation.Read More
