What is ECOSAN
Ecological Sanitation is an integrated and holistic approach in the management of human excreta, utilization of the rich nutrients in both urine and faeces.
It promotes sustainable agriculture.
Does not contaminate surface and groundwater sources.
Conserves and preserves the most critical input for human life namely water.
• The first Ecosan Community compost toilet
was built in Musiri, T.N., India in 2005.
• Urine and Feces are so rich in nutrients for farm production that they were worth
buying(300 users per day).
• Those who use the toilets are paid 10 paise per use on a monthly basis.
This is the first time in the world that toilet users are being paid as against pay and use toilet system.
