Sustainability news: Liquid Gold waterless urinals
- Urine Diversion is the practice of keeping human urine separate from the rest of the wastewater stream.
- Urine contains most of the plant nutrients found in human waste.
- Crystalised urine, which contains valuable nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus, can be applied to soil and used as a fertilizer.
“South Africa is a water scarce country, our solution will save millions of litres of fresh drinking water, reduce energy and remove nutrient pollution from our waste water treatment plants which land up in our aquatic systems. We are now able to close the nutrient cycle in farming by providing a natural fertilizer that is rich in nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and other elements essential to plant growth.”
