2Objectives of the Innovative Ecological
Sanitation Network India (IESNI)
- Supporting the development of
- innovative ecological sanitation systems (closed
loop systems) for India (for rural and urban
applications) - the institutional and economical framework for
implementation of innovative ecological
sanitation systems in India - the acceptance of reusing recycled nutrients in
agricultural applications - Implementing and evaluating 3 - 5 case studies in
India. - Providing capacity building, knowledge
dissemination, experience sharing and
implementation support

9Modules to be Implemented by the IESNI
- water saving modules
- installation of flow limiter (shower nozzles,
water taps) - deinstallation of shower nozzles and
installation of bucket showers
- greywater modules
- pre-treatment of greywater in vermifilter
- mulch trenches for sub-surface distribution of
greywater used for irrigation (with or witout
pre-treatment)
- blackwater modules
- water-less urine-separation vermicomposting
toilets (vermitoilets) - anaerobic digestion of blackwater from common
toilet blocks - solid-liquid separation cum vermicomposting of
blackwater in a vermifilter
- urine modules
- urine collection from urinals (females and
males) and urine-separation squatting toilets
- common sanitation blocks
- sanitation blocks providing toilet facilities,
showers and wash-basins

for Sub-Surface Distribution of Greywater (contd.)
13Module Greywater Distribution in Mulch Trenches
- advantages of using organic material for
sub-surface distribution of greywater - its locally available (coconut fibres, rice
husk, wood chips, bark chips, ...) - use of organics (agricultural scraps, ...) that
may otherwise not be used, - it doesnt require costly materials (PVC-pipes,
gravel, ...) to be used, - its flexible in construction and can easily be
replaced in the event of decomposition and
clogging, - use for co-composting afterwards
