Usage
A human waste bioreactor (HWB) can be used in developing nations by families who do not have access to electricity nor livestock manure. In addition, the household-sized HWB can be built without industrial construction equipment and access to industrial materials. It could be employed in war torn areas where the electrical grid has been destroyed. The HWB would be especially useful in refugee camps where there is no sanitary sewer, people are already exposed to waste-borne illnesses, and there is a high-density living environment without access to electricity.
Human feces can carry parasites and diseases such as cholera and giardia. In this report, I do not consider the pathology of creating a HWB. Anyone building a household-sized HWB should analyze its potential to spread disease.
