Abstract:
    This project aims to improve on-site sanitation systems and services in a housing society of Islamabad to ensure safe and hygienic access to sanitation. Currently, the Fecal Sludge Management (FSM) service chain is entirely non-existent in Pakistan. In this context, a household survey will be conducted in Bahria Enclave Islamabad to collect data regarding the existing fecal sludge management system. Then a financial and technical FSM model comprising of the whole service chain will be designed for this area. The potential for decentralized biological treatment of the leachate from the sludge drying bed will be the main engineering focus. Our project will aim to improve onsite sanitation services by developing a sustainable FSM model. It will also reduce stress on freshwater resources by treating septic tank sludge. The project will address the issue of non-existent FSM in Pakistan by shaping the FSM model to the local context.
