Rojas Ortuste, Franz2014-03-182014-03-182012-03https://hdl.handle.net/10986/17332The present report spotlights the major challenges and the opportunities that lie ahead in fecal sludge management and summarizes the findings from four case studies that describe the current and potential market for sludge removal, collection, and disposal in peri-urban areas. These areas, inhabited by a variety of ethnic, religious, and cultural groups, typically struggle with high population density, insufficient land use planning, high citizen insecurity, and low coverage with basic services. The report demonstrates how technical, financial, environmental, social, regulatory, political, and institutional factors interact to create supply and demand in four markets where coverage with sanitary sewerage services is below the regional average, namely: Santa Cruz (Bolivia), Guatemala City (Guatemala), Tegucigalpa (Honduras), and Managua (Nicaragua).en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOABSORPTIONACCESS TO SAFE DRINKING WATERACCESS TO WATERAQUIFERSAUTONOMOUS WATER SUPPLYBASIC SANITATIONBILLINGBIOCHEMICAL OXYGEN DEMANDCESSPITSCESSPOOLSCHEMICAL PROCESSESCHILD MORTALITYCHILD MORTALITY RATECITIZENCITY POPULATIONCOLIFORMSCOLLECTION FREQUENCYCOLLECTION TRUCKSCOMMUNITY DEVELOPMENTCONNECTIONCONSTRUCTIONCONVENTIONAL SEWERAGECONVENTIONAL SEWERAGE SYSTEMSCURRENT POPULATIONDISPOSAL OF SLUDGEDISSEMINATIONDITCHESDOMESTIC WASTEWATERDRAINDRAINAGEDRINKING WATERDRINKING WATER COVERAGEDRINKING WATER SUPPLYDRY LATRINESEXCRETAEXCRETA DISPOSALFAMILY INCOMEFECESFILTRATIONFLUSH LATRINESGOVERNMENT SUPPORTGROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCTHEALTH CENTERSHEALTH EDUCATIONHEALTH RISKSHEAVY METALSHOUSEHOLD INCOMEHOUSEHOLD SANITATIONHOUSEHOLDSHUMAN DEVELOPMENTHYGIENEILLNESSESIMMIGRANTINDUSTRIALIZATIONIRRIGATIONLACK OF AWARENESSLAND OWNERSHIPLAND TENURELATRINELATRINE CONSTRUCTIONLATRINESLEAKSLIVE BIRTHSLIVING CONDITIONSLOCAL GOVERNMENTSLOW-INCOME HOUSEHOLDSLOW-INCOME POPULATIONLOW-INCOME POPULATIONSMETALSMIGRANTSMILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALSMONTHLY CHARGEMONTHLY PAYMENTSMUNICIPAL GOVERNMENTMUNICIPAL GOVERNMENTSMUNICIPAL LEVELMUNICIPAL WATERMUNICIPAL WATER SUPPLYMUNICIPALITIESNATIONAL POPULATIONNATIONAL WATERNATURAL RESOURCESNONHAZARDOUS SLUDGEODORSORGANIC MATTEROXYGENPIT LATRINESPLUMBINGPOLLUTIONPOPULATION DENSITYPOPULATION GROWTHPOPULATION STUDYPOPULATION WITHOUT ACCESSPOSTERSPOTENTIAL USERSPRINT MEDIAPRIVATE COMPANIESPRIVATE OPERATORSPROFIT MARGINPROFIT MARGINSPROGRESSPROPER WASTEWATER MANAGEMENTPUBLIC HEALTHPUBLIC POLICYPUMPSPURCHASING POWERPURCHASING POWER PARITYPVCQUALITY OF SERVICEQUALITY OF SERVICESREGULATORY AGENCYREGULATORY FRAMEWORKRESIDENTIAL AREASRESIDENTIAL CUSTOMERSRESPECTRUNOFFRURAL AREASRURAL COMMUNITIESRURAL RESIDENCERURAL SANITATIONSAFE DRINKING WATERSANITARY FACILITIESSANITARY LANDFILLSSANITARY REQUIREMENTSSANITARY SEWERAGESANITARY SEWERAGE SYSTEMSSANITARY SEWERSSANITATIONSANITATION AUTHORITYSANITATION COVERAGESANITATION FACILITIESSANITATION PRACTICESSANITATION PROGRAMSANITATION PROGRAMSSANITATION PROVIDERSSANITATION QUALITYSANITATION SECTORSANITATION SERVICESANITATION SERVICE PROVIDERSSANITATION SERVICESSANITATION SOLUTIONSSANITATION SYSTEMSSEA LEVELSEPTIC CHAMBERSSEPTIC TANKSEPTIC TANK CLEANINGSEPTIC TANKSSERVICE OPERATORSERVICE PROVIDERSSERVICE QUALITYSEWAGESEWERAGE CONNECTIONSSEWERAGE NETWORKSEWERAGE NETWORKSSEWERAGE SERVICESEWERAGE SERVICESSEWERAGE SYSTEMSEWERAGE SYSTEMSSLUDGESLUDGE REMOVALSMALL CITIESSOCIAL CONTROLSOCIAL PARTICIPATIONSOCIAL REASONSSOLID WASTESOURCE OF DRINKING WATERSPECIAL WASTESQUATTER SETTLEMENTSSTABILIZATIONSTABILIZATION PONDSSTATUS OF SANITATIONSTORAGE CAPACITYSUSPENDED SOLIDSSUSTAINABLE ACCESSSUSTAINABLE SERVICESTECHNICAL ASSISTANCETOILETSTRANSPORTATIONTREATMENT PLANTTREATMENT SERVICESURBAN AREAURBAN AREASURBAN CENTERURBAN COMMUNITIESURBAN DEVELOPMENTURBAN ENVIRONMENTURBAN POPULATIONURBAN SANITATIONURBAN SETTLEMENTSURBAN SLUMSURBAN SPRAWLUSERSWASTEWATERWASTEWATER COLLECTIONWASTEWATER MANAGEMENTWASTEWATER SERVICESWASTEWATER TREATMENTWASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANTWASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANTSWATER BODIESWATER PARTNERSHIPWATER RESOURCESWATER SERVICESWELLS10.1596/17332
