Global Partnership of Laboratories for Faecial Sludge Analysis
Unlike wastewater, there are very few laboratories that specialize in faecal sludge analysis. In addition, due to the lack of standard methods for sampling and analysing faecal sludge, standard methods from other fields, such as water, wastewater, and soil science, are usually applied. This is why experts in faecal sludge analysis recently established the Global Partnership of Laboratories for Faecal Sludge Analysis to address these challenges and work towards standardized methods for characterizing and quantifying faecal sludge from onsite sanitation technologies, including sampling techniques and health and safety procedures for faecal sludge handling. The Partnership also delivers on-campus courses and training and aims to improve communication between sanitation practitioners, provide a comparative faecal sludge database, and improve confidence in the methods and obtained results. The Partnership currently consists of thirteen laboratories in Bandung, Bangalore, Bangkok, Delft, Durban, Goa, Kathmandu, Montevideo, New Delhi, Ouagadougou, Palakkad, and Zurich.
