  • Metering and Conveying Silica Sand for Sedron Technologies General Description
    Metering and Conveying Silica Sand for Sedron Technologies General Description KWS Provides Critical Equipment Safe drinking water and clean sanitation systems are basic needs for everyone in the world. However, to Sedron Technologies approximately 4.5 billion people do not have access to these necessities. Viruses and diseases spread due to poor sanitation. Traditional sanitation systems are not feasible in certain areas of the world. New technology is needed to solve the problem of poor sanitation. Fortunately, many new ideas and developments are helping to create safe drinking water and clean sanitation. Sedron Technologies developed a decentralized waste treatment system using a Janicki Omni Processor that kills pathogens while recovering valuable resources from biosolids and other waste streams. The Omni Processor processes waste without piped water, sewer or electrical connections and can transform waste into useful resources such as energy and water. The process starts with biosolids mixed with hydrated lime and silica sand being fed to a dryer where moisture is removed. The dried solid waste is then burned to produce heat in a boiler to generate steam and power a turbine generator to produce electricity. The electricity powers the processor with excess electricity sold back to the power grid. For more information about Sedron Technologies and the Janicki Omni Processor, watch the Netix documentary “Inside Bill’s Brain: Decoding Bill Gates” or go to YouTube for various videos on the Janicki Omni Processor. Design Parameters Product Type: Silica Sand Material Density: 92 Lbs. per Cubic Foot Conveyor System Capacity: 23 Cubic Feet per Hour Duty: 24 hours per Day, 7 Days per Week KWS Advantages KWS has been working with Sedron Technologies on several phases of the Janicki Omni Processor waste treatment system and provided bulk material handling equipment for metering biosolids to the boiler to generate electricity.

Abstract In municipal centers of developing nations, most households are served by means of on-site public health systems like septic tanks as well unsewered toilets, besides the faecal sludges gathered from these methods are usually discarded unprocessed into the city and peri-urban environment which posing great dangers to water resources and municipal health. Contrary to wastewater administration, the development schemes to handle faecal sludges that can adapt to the prevalent situations in unindustrialized nations, have long been deserted. The authors outline the existing situation and converse on certain novel issues of faecal sludges management like the Omni Processor, reinvented toilet, Solar-Powered Poop Blaster, Power of pee prototype; Self contain toilet and sewage system, Duke's Community Stand-alone waste facility and Nano- membrane toilet or waterless toilet.

  • EXPERIENCE NOTES Case Stories on Inclusive Sanitation April   Issue No
    EXPERIENCE NOTES Case Stories on Inclusive Sanitation April Issue No. The ADB Water Sector Group’s Experience Notes are case stories on inclusive sanitation projects. The stories invite readers to learn about innovative approaches, technologies, and strategies used in initiatives supported by the Sanitation Financing Partnership Trust Fund (SFPTF) under the Water Financing Partnership Facility. Each case lists lessons and tips that can guide water supply and sanitation practitioners. These are critical as the world continues to wrestle with the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, making water and sanitation essential to protecting and saving lives. Changing the Future of Sanitation through Reinvented Toilets IN THIS ISSUE: The ADB Water Sector Group shows how cutting- edge, o -grid sanitation solutions are slowly becoming more accessible for booming cities and isolated areas. We share fresh insights gathered from the innovation process and the potential of these technologies to help countries reach universal safely managed sanitation. iyapath Suksanguan, vice-chair of the Khlong Phlabphla community in Bangkok, Thailand, remembered the time Pwhen the canal in their neighborhood reeked of decaying human waste. “Before the reinvented toilets were installed, people who came out here to exercise usually sneaked in the canal just behind me and relieved themselves. There were no e orts to maintain safe sanitation,” she said. In 2018, their community was chosen as the pilot site for the Zyklon, the fi rst reinvented toilet in Thailand by SCG Chemicals Co., Ltd. and supported by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. In collaboration with the Asian Institute of Technology, they built pilot units at the public park near the canal.

  • 1 Prospectus Scale-Up and Design of the Janicki
    Prospectus Scale-up and Design of the Janicki Omniprocessor with Reverse Osmosis Technology (Technical Topic) The Negative Impacts of Wastewater Treatment Plant Operation on the Health and Quality of Life of Neighboring Communities (STS Topic) By Noah Sprouse December 08, 2020 Technical Project Team Members: Julia George, Adam Mann, Arthur Wu On my honor as a University student, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid on this assignment as defined by the Honor Guidelines for Thesis-Related Assignments. Signed: Noah Sprouse Approved: _______________________________________ Date ________________________ Rider Foley, Department of Engineering and Society Approved: _______________________________________ Date ________________________ Eric Anderson, Department of Chemical Engineering 1 Background In 2017, 1.6 million people died due to diarrheal diseases, among the leading causes of death worldwide (Dadonaite, Ritchie, & Roser, 2019). Unsafe drinking water, inadequate availability of water for hygiene, and lack of access to sanitation were attributed to around 88% of these deaths (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2018). Cashman (2020) reported that in 2015, 1.2 million people in Dakar, Senegal alone had no flushing toilets and were not connected to a sewer line. Instead, they used tiny pit latrines in the middle of their streets, increasing the possibility of pathogens and other contaminants leaching into the surrounding environment and groundwater (Cashman, 2020). More than 2 billion people worldwide face living in such unsanitary conditions. This same number of people live in countries experiencing high water stress as it is (United Nations, 2018). The combination of inadequate sanitation, hygiene, and clean drinking water is a major cause of poor living standards, vulnerability to disease, and poverty.

  • What Are the Desirable Feedstocks for a Janicki Omni Processor? What
    October 15, 2018 Memorandum To: Melbourne Beautification and Energy Efficiency Board (BEEB) From: John Windsor, BEEB Alternate Member Subject: Biosolids to Energy At a previous meeting of the Beautification and Energy Efficiency Board (BEEB) the subject of converting sludge from Melbourne Wastewater Treatment Plants to Energy was discussed. The Janicki Omni Processor was the unit of interest because it produces energy and clean water from sewage sludge. I was tasked to gather information about this process and share it with the Board. Below are facts that we can discuss at the monthly meeting on Friday, October 19, 2018. 1. Contact for Janicki Omni Processor information Janickibioenergy.com . An excellent 13 minute video link is on the homepage (TEDMED Talk | Peter Janicki - Turning Waste into Wealth). Peter Janicki’s motivation and advice is very important. If you want to see how the processor works you can also see details at the website. From the FAQ about waste processing on the homepage of that site: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Waste Processing What are the desirable feedstocks for a Janicki Omni Processor? Desirable feedstocks for the Janicki Omni Processor include wastewater (i.e. digested/undigested sewage sludge, biosolids, residential septage), animal by-products (manure and organic waste), pre-sorted municipal solid waste (MSW), biomass solid wastes, and various industrial waste streams (food and beverage processing waste, distillation by-products, industrial septage). Examples of acceptable MSW include paper and plastic products, domestic household waste, and biomass. The JOP cannot process metal, glass, batteries and several other toxic chemicals. What are the minimum and maximum daily waste inputs for different kinds of waste with the JOP S250? The Janicki Omni Processor S250 requires roughly 12-15 metric tons of dry waste per day as fuel, or 60 metric tons of wet waste per day into our dryer.

    UNICEF Lebanon LRPS#9159504 Annex 1 - TERMS OF REFERENCE Title: Set up of Omni Processor: Turning Sewage into Drinking Water and Electricity Duty station: Beirut Reporting to: Emergency WASH Specialist Contract type: Institutional Contract Duration: 8 months Start date: August 2020 Section Content Background UNICEF WASH Program has scaled up its response to the Syria crisis and provides support and services to both refugees and host Lebanese communities and to the Ministry of Energy and Water (MoEW) and its regional Water Establishments (Wes) bearing the greatest burden resulting from the impact of the Syria Crisis on the water and sanitation sector in Lebanon. The Syrian refugee crisis has a severe impact on water and wastewater infrastructures in the Bekaa valley where water consumption has increased considerably, and the sewage disposal had worsened and exponentially increased the load of BOD & COD of the already polluted Litani river waters. The condition in the Informal Tended Settlements (ITS) camps has reached a critical level in terms of general hygiene for the refugees, as well as for the load of pollution generated by the cesspools (black water). On another hand, all ITS camps in Qab Elias have diverted their grey water into open channels. These channels are mostly diverted to storm waters systems within the area, and grey water is sometimes disposed off into open ponds. This is resulting into grey water infiltration into the underground or stagnancy in the open, which leads to heavy concentration of mosquitos and other related waterborne diseases. The Litani River is one of the major water resources in Lebanon.
