With the Project:
Sustainable Toilets @ Girls School in Sierra Leone

The project implemented by ECOLOO GreenTech Malaysia aims at deploying toilets for girls at a school in Sierra Leone.The Ecoloo is a unique and sustainable technology that can reduce, reuse & recycle available sewer waste efficiently. Furthermore, the sustainable toilet provides a comprehensive and effective solution to the challenges of food security through the use of the organic fertilizer.

INITIAL SITUATION

SOLUTION

The Ecoloo has been installed in schools, factories and public areas. The liquid fertilizer obtained from the toilets is odourless and rich in nutrients and can be collected for agricultural use or drained if not required. As the waste is already treated, disposal on land is safe for the environment. Ecollo helps to reduce poverty through the creation of job or business opportunities for the local producers and service provider through sustainable agriculture and socio-economical sustainability.

INNOVATION

The Ecoloo is a permanent, long term, non-polluting and on-site waste treatment solution, and the best alternative to flush toilets and sewage treatment. The toilet saves 100% of the cost of waste transportation thereby, reducing carbon emission. There is no odour released from the toilet and there is also no sewage or toxic sludge. Again, the toilet does not require water to operate or for flushing.Ecoloo sanitation system provides an alternative and ultimate solution to the worlds sanitation issues.
