  text: The main aim of this EU demonstration project was to test two new sanitation
    concepts to determine if these concepts are more sustainable, compared with the
    conventional sanitation system, particularly with regard to nutrient recycling.
    Two different sanitation concepts were tested. One concept comprised the use of
    gravity separation toilets, the other used vacuum separation toilets. Results
    from a life-cycle-assessment investigation show that the new sanitation concepts
    are more sustainable. A cost analysis for an existing residential area did not
    prove lower costs for the new sanitation concepts in this special case. The experience
    from this demonstration project shows that prior to a widespread use of the new
    sanitation concepts, several improvements have to be made. One important issue
    is the improvement of separation toilets. Since nutrient recycling, water saving
    and reuse as well energy reduction become more and more important, further research
    should be undertaken in this field.
