- Additional information
- The work presented in this article is an integral component of the Nanomembrane Toilet, which has received US$9m funding by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and has won numerous awards including the IWA Kiran and Pallavi Patel Grand Innovation Gold Award in 2018. It was also listed as one of the UK University best 100 breakthroughs for significant impact on people’s everyday lives by MadeAtUni. A key innovation in the toilet design was post-flush separation of urine and faeces, and this paper reports on the development of the screw extruder that has made this possible.
