Info

• Hygienic latrine design plays a major role in reducing the transmission of bacteria and viruses. • Latrines should be wide enough to fit two people. − This allows for one to help an ill family member or friend. • They should be designed to allow for natural light and ventilation • A squat pole should also be included to help the elderly and sick • Soap or ash should be located nearby so that the occupant can wash his or her hands. • The latrine should be in an enclosed area to keep vectors out. • A vent pipe will allow for fumes to escape the latrine. − A fly screen should be attached to the vent pipe’s opening to stop flies from entering the latrine. • A seat cover can help reduce odor when the latrine is not in use.
• Pit Latrine − Simple latrine with a super structure and a pit for human excreta retention. The walls of the pit may be lined. • Ventilated Improved Pit Latrine (VIP latrine) − Advance pit latrine with a lined pit. VIP latrines reduce odor and control vector populations • Ecological Sanitation (eco-san) − A urine diverting latrine that composts feces • Biodigester Latrine − A latrine that creates biogas usable for cooking and composts waste
