Reusability assessment of reinforced concrete components prior to deconstruction from obsolete buildings

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Maléna Bastien Masse, Julie Rachel Devènes

A large part of building demolitions is motivated by purely socio-economic reasons. Hence, about-to-be-demolished structures, commonly made of reinforced concrete, very often present no or little degradation. When adaptive reuse of the entire building is n ...

Wastewater monitoring can anchor global disease surveillance systems

Tamar Kohn, Timothy R. Julian, Alex Robinson

To inform the development of global wastewater monitoring systems, we surveyed programmes in 43 countries. Most programmes monitored predominantly urban populations. In high-income countries (HICs), composite sampling at centralised treatment plants was mo ...

Modelling quantities and qualities (Q&Q) of faecal sludge in Hanoi, Vietnam and Kampala, Uganda for improved management solutions

Linda Strande, Magalie Diane Bassan, Amédé Ferré

The importance of faecal sludge management is gaining recognition. However, methods are still lacking to reasonably estimate the quantities and qualities (Q&Q) that need to be managed, which makes the planning for and implementing of management solutions q ...

Health risks for sanitation service workers along a container-based urine collection system and resource recovery value chain

Tamar Kohn, Simon Schindelholz, Timothy R. Julian

Container-based sanitation (CBS) within a comprehensive service system value chain offers a low-cost sanitation option with potential for revenue generation, but may increase microbial health risks to sanitation service workers. This study assessed occupat ...

Optimal design of biogas supply chains

François Maréchal, Theodoros Damartzis, Grégoire Alain Chomette

The current work addresses a methodology for the optimal design of biogas supply chains based on anaerobic digestion of animal manure. The problem formulation allows the utilization of optimized processing plants that have been previously designed within a ...

Towards sustainable sanitation: Identifying and mitigating microbial health risks in the production of urine-derived fertilizers

Tamar Kohn, Simon Schindelholz, Timothy R. Julian

Sanitation systems that systematically recover and reuse waste can promote social enterprise, reduce discharge of harmful nutrients, pathogens and other contaminants to the environment, replace synthetic fertilizer sources, and increase access to sanitatio ...

Mechanisms and modeling of pathogen fate in pilot scale nutrient recovery reactors

Loïc Decrey, Simon Schindelholz, Manfred Schoger, Ariane Schertenleib, Timothy R. Julian

Due to its high nutrient content, source-separated urine can be processed into marketable liquid or solid fertilizers. The Valorisation of Urine Nutrients in Africa (VUNA) project developed and tested pilot-scale nitrification/distillation and struvite (Mg ...

Towards sustainable sanitation: Mitigating microbial health risks in the production of urine-derived fertilizers

Tamar Kohn, Loïc Decrey, Simon Schindelholz, Linda Strande, Manfred Schoger, Ariane Schertenleib, Kai Udert, Christa McArdell

To identify and address health and safety challenges, first, I conducted a screening of fecal pathogens in source-separated urine. The pathogen inactivation performance of two innovative fertilizer production technologies was then evaluated in laboratory a ...

Conceptualising urban energy supply systems as socio-technical ecological systems in transition

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Susan Marie Mühlemeier

The analysis of energy system transitions is mainly affected by a socio-technical system (STS) understanding, focussing on the co-evolvement of societal and technical changes. However, energy systems are highly dependent on and characterised by ecological ...
