尿糞分集生態廁所
Urine faeces separation eco-toilet
水沖式廁所耗水量驚人，占城市耗水量的20--30%，污水下水道和汙水處理場基礎設施耗資是天文數字，排放後還是污染環境，至於農村更不可能有這些投資。
The water-flushing toilet consumes a huge amount of water, which takes 20~30% water consumption of a city. The infrastructure of sanitary sewer and sewage disposal system costs an enormous figure. At the same time, it still pollutes the environment after discharging. In addition, it’s impossible for the rural areas to afford the construction fee.
農村改廁的主要目的是預防、控制腸道傳染病和寄生蟲病的傳播。糞便中和被糞便污染的飲用水中，含有多種腸道傳染病和寄生蟲病的病原體，包括致病的病毒和蟲卵，嚴重威脅農民的身體健康。
The main goal of the toilet modernization in rural areas is to prevent and control the propagation of the verminous and intestinal infectious affection. The excrement and the excrement polluted water carry a lot of pathogens of them, including the diseaseful virus and worm eggs, which threaten seriously the health of the habitants.
目前農村大部份是使用糞尿一坑開放式糞池，由於尿液水份多，堆肥過程寄生蟲和病毒不易殺滅而且蟲蠅滋生。
Currently in the rural areas, the majority is all-in-one open septic tank. Due to the high amount of water content in the urine, it breeds many worms and flies, also it’s difficult to exterminate the pathogen during compost.
沼氣池投資成本與技術含量高，中國至２０１０年適宜地區農村的沼氣普及率僅能達到３５％，可見尿糞分離廁所的重要性，幾乎是唯一的選擇。
It demands high cost and technique to construct methane-generating pit. For this reason, the availability of methane can only reach to 35% in rural areas till 2010. We can tell the importance and the necessary of urine faeces separation eco-toilet.
尿糞分離後，加上糞坑朝南配置糞便容易乾燥，縮短無害化堆肥時間，尿液靜置幾天就可稀釋使用。
After the separation of urine and faeces, the south toward cesspit enables the acceleration the dehydration of faeces. It can also shorten the time of environmentally friendly compost. After a few days, the urine can be used after diluting.
