Urine can be disposed of easily and without risk to the environment because it is generated in relatively small volumes and is nearly sterile. The Urine can be diverted directly to the ground for Use and/or Disposal as [[Application of Urine|Land Application]], [[Irrigation]] or soil infiltration through a [[Soak Pit]]. [[Urine Storage Tank|Storage Tanks]] can be used for the Collection Storage/Treatment of Urine.
The Dried Faeces that are generated from the Collection and Storage/Treatment Technology can be removed and transported for Use and/or Disposal. The Conveyance Technology that can be used is [[Human-Powered Emptying and Transport|Human Powered E&T]]. The Dried Faeces pose little human health risk. Stored Urine can be transported for Use and/ or Disposal using either the [[Jerrycan-tank|Jerrycan]] or [[Motorized Emptying and Transport|Motorized E&T]] Technologies.
Guidelines for the safe use of Excreta, Faecal Sludge and Urine have been published by the World Health Organization (WHO) and are referenced on the relevant Technology Information Sheets.
