Lifting the Lid
[BCBO_ll]
£12.00

Human waste has been traditionally seen as a problem rather than a valuable resource. This book explains how to transform human 'waste' from a water pollutant into valuable source of environmental capital. There are chapters on the problems with current methods of treatment; possible alternatives; methods of designing dry toilets and on recycling grey water and sewage. A number of case studies also provide a practical reference point and the two final appendices give detailed plans of dry toilet designs.

Recommended by The Independent's eco-builder, Will Anderson, alongside CAT's Sewage Solutions: answering the call of nature. The Independent, February 2005
This is another first class book from CAT. The value of this book lies not only in its expertise but in its honesty. It gives you all you need to know. Permaculture Magazine
