Sustainable Construction by Provisions of Bio-Sanitation

Abstract

Stepping into the 21st century, coupled with enormous scientific development we also face a grave threat of resource depletion and pollution leading to poor health conditions. The most significant contribution of this pollution comes from various construction activities. From pre-construction to post-construction activities, huge amount of resources are spent on erecting as well as maintaining a building. Even with all leading innovations concerning sustainable construction, we have left out the extensive role of sanitation that could prove to be a pivotal path towards obtaining sustainable buildings. Thus, this paper aims at the innovative use of Bio-toilets in collaboration with Bio-Gas to unveil their use and adaption to not only traditional buildings, but even high rise structures.
