17. TECHNICAL OPTION - IV BIO TANK / BIO TOILETS (PATENTED BY PRIVATE OPERATORS AND APPROVED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY)Description: This technology differs from that of the bio-digester toilets developed by DRDO since the process adopted is aerobic - which involves a different multi-strain of bacteria which breaks down the waste matter through oxidization. Bio-toilets consist of a purpose built multi chambered bio- tank in which the waste is stored Specifications: i. Toilet Superstructure: Size of Toilet / Superstructure as shown in Fig.1 750 mm x 900 mm x 1900mm; or 800 mm x 1000 mm x 1900 mm ii. Material : Bricks and Mortar walls of Bio Digester tank and Superstructure, PCC tank floor, RCC Toilet Floor, PVC Door and Frame, RCC/PVC/GI sheet Toilet Roof. SWACHHAANDHRA

18. iii. The Bio-Toilet System consist of : Bio digester Tank(Bricks & Mortar/FRP/Steel). Superstructure (Bricks * Mortar/FRP)  Indian Pan/WC  Size: 4 feet x 4 feet tank base, 4 feet tank height , 6 feet superstructure height  Maximum usage recommended : 30 defecations / day/bio-toilet (no limit on urination)  Land Requirement – 16 Sq.ft. Cost Estimates : The Tentative cost of bio-toilet including super structure is approximately Rs.20,000/- depending upon the construction material. The bio-toilets should be supplied by the manufacturers and the O&M for at least 5 years along with IEC by the manufacturer/supplier also should be built into the under taking SWACHHAANDHRA

20. 20Concept of IHHT with Twin PitsPour-flush toilets linked to twin-pits (also called Twin-pit Pour-flush (TPPF)) toilets are improved pit latrines, allowing on-site treatment and transformation of the faecal sludge into a hygienised soil amendment.They are semi-dry toilet systems (not linked to a piping system, but require water for flushing).Different models of different prices exist.They require generally little maintenance but due to the need of the construction of two pits, initial investment costs can be little high.SWACHHAANDHRA

21. 21A simple pour-flush squatting platform (porcelain or cement).A water seal as a barrier for odour and fliesSet into a brick and concrete based.The outlet is piped to a Y junction box.From the box the blackwater (faeces, flush water, cleansing water) are directed to one of two shallow (leach or soak pits)Pits are used in alterationA superstructure is added for privacy and can be constructed from a wide range of locally available materials.Water sealRemovable coverSuperstructureSewer junction (outlet blocked for unused pit)DoorLeach pit / soak pitPit full. Sludge safe for removal after two yearsPit in useSWACHHAANDHRA

22. 22Pits are lined with porous material: water infiltrates locally into the soil, solids (faeces) remain in the pits and are decomposed (by a mixed composting/digestion process).The two pits are used in alteration: while one pit is filling, the other pit remains out of service.When the first pit is full, it is covered and temporarily taken out of service.When the second pit is full, the first pit is re-opened and emptied.It should take a minimum of two years to fill a pit and during that time, the faeces in the pit out of service can continue to decompose.The treated sludge can be used as solid fertiliser (i.e. humanure).SWACHHAANDHRAHow does it work

25. 25Leach pits made out ofbricks (much like a honeycomb) and perforated concreteSWACHHAANDHRA

26. 26Twin-Pit Pour-Flush Toilet The pour-flush squatting pan consist of a steep bottom slope and a water seal trap.From there, faeces and flushing water is directed to one of two leach pits.An inspection chamber containing a Y junction is normally built between the pits and the pan so that the excrete can be channeled into either pit. Each pit is designed to last for about three years before it gets filled; filling time is should be 2 years for all pathogens to die off. 3. Design PrincipalsPour-flush Toilet (Twin-pit Model)SWACHHAANDHRA

27. 27Pits locationIf site conditions do not permit this layout, the pits can be placed on the side or even in front of the pan as shown, but this results in more water needed for flushing. Toilets can be constructed inside the house, while the pits can be situated outside the house.To remain accessible, pits should be constructed in open ground. But if no space is available, they can also be constructed below the toilet. In cases where there is no space close to the toilet leach pits could be located even 15 metres away from the latrine cubicle provided the connecting pipe is laid at a slope of 1:5:1 to 15. Pits should not be situated in drainage lines or the paths of storm water drains to prevent cross-contamination. The pits should not be located in depressions where water is likely to collect. The pits be constructed over 1 m from any structural foundation as leachate can negatively impact structural supports.  3. Design PrincipalsSWACHHAANDHRA

28. 28UseMaintain correct squatting position so as excreta fall in the center of the trap openingFlushing and anal cleansing with 1.5 to 2 L, so that the excreta slide smoothly without sticking to the surface. Operation and Maintenance (O&M)Day-to-day maintenanceWashing the latrine floor.Cleaning the squatting pan (brush with a long handle).Only little water should used for cleaning and washing to reduce pit filling. Bath, kitchen or rain water should not be added in large volumes because this would cause overflow of the pit Solid waste (kitchen waste, sweepings etc.) should not be added as this would cause cloggingSWACHHAANDHRA

29. 29Pit alternationEvery two years The inspection chamber is opened and one of the pipes in the Y junction is stopped off ,while the other one is opened. A brick, stone, mound of clay or block of wood cam be used as stopper .The pit is re-sealed to prevent gases escaping to the atmosphere.About 15 cm of soil should be filled in the bottom of the first pit when before use. After two years of rest, soil will be safe for handling, dry and without any foul smell. It can be dug out manually and used as soil amendment in kitchen gardens or field.In case of humid sludge, it can be spread out and dried under the sunThe twin pits can be used indefinitely. Long-term support facilities to remind and assist the user in changing and emptying pits will greatly improve operational success Operation and Maintenance (O&M)SWACHHAANDHRA

30. 30Where water for flushing and anal cleansing is availableIn areas with soils of soil good absorptive capacity (alleviates, silt ); Tightly packed or rocky soils (clay) are not appropriate. Low groundwater tables, low risk of flooding.Depending on soil conditions, a certain minimum vertical distance from the bottom of the pit to the groundwater is required to prevent its pollution. If soil conditions are full-filled and water for flushing available, TPPFs can be constructed in both, rural and urban housings, but to many pits in dense housing areas will cause groundwater pollution and overflow as soil matrix may not can absorb all the water.

33. II. NORMS & SPECIFICATIONS FOR COMMUNITY AND PUBLIC TOILETSDescription: Community toilet block is a shared facility provided for a group of residents or an entire settlement. Community toilet blocks are used primarily in low-income informal settlements where space and/or land are constraints. Pour flush option is generally used in this kind of OSS systems. It is also advisable to provide facilities like washing, bathing, and a small incinerator in this block for the use of the community. Public toilets are provided for the floating population /general public in places such as markets, rain stations or other public areas, where there is a considerable number of people passing by.SWACHHAANDHRA

34. Septic tanks for Public / Community toilets: Recommended sizes of septic tanks for community / public toilets (up to 300 users) is given in Table 5 below Source : Manual on Sewerage and Sewage Treatment Systems, 2013 Part A EngineeringNote 1 : A provision of 300 mm should be made for free broad. Note 2 : The sizes of septic tank are based on certain assumption on peak discharges, as estimated in IS: 2470 (part 1) and while choosing the size of septic tank exact calculations shall be made.Note 3 : For Population over 100, the tank may be divided into independent parallel chambers of maintenance and cleaning.SWACHHAANDHRA
