Sustainable Organic Integrated Livelihoods

2 SOIL Sustainable Organic Integrated Livelihoods
Founded in 2006, Cap-Haitien 50 toilets installed in Nord Port-au-Prince Delmas, Tabarre, Cite Soleil 8 schools/churches, 21 IDP camps # beneficiaries: ~17000 individuals Toilets Double urine-diversion toilets UNISOL Humanure Toilet

Toilet Maintenance Transport/Collection Cover materials Composting process

4 Urine-Diversion Toilets
For the UD toilets, the urine is separated from the feces by the seat. The feces drop through the hole into a drum while the urine is channeled forward into a hole where it is connected to a PVC pipe or a flexible tube that carries it into a soakaway pit. After each use, the user covers the feces by dropping some of the sawdust or bagas into the hole. Doing this has three benefits: 1) reduces smell 2)reduces fly-breeding and 3)aids in the composting of the feces. The seats are based on a model that we brought from Sweden but we have had a local company, Tank Solid, developing them for us.

5 Single vault Permanent Public

6 Modified composting toilet
-Easy to empty -Long-lasting -Cheaper than the double-vault (1800USD) -Visually appealling -Limited resources for transport/drum collection makes it difficult Modified composting toilet

7 Single vault Temporary Public

8 -Relatively Inexpensive (1400USD)
-Can be dismantled -Easily emptied -Regular plumbing problems

9 Modified Portable Toilets
UNISOL Modified Portable Toilets

10 Inexpensive modification – 40USD
Cheaper to maintain than chemical toilets Easily transported elsewhere

11 Humanure Toilet + Cheap, 100-150USD + Easily removed
+ Does not require space + Captures all the nutrients from the urine Tend to have more flies and odor than UD toilets -Heavier to transport Fill more quickly than UD Not durable
