Re: Are there urine collection systems at a larger scale?

We are planning to visit the waste water treatment plant of Seesen (Harz), where I am staying in Germany, in a couple of weeks and discuss options of improvement.  Seesen is a municipality of some 15000 people.  It would therefore be nice if I could get some responses to my question.

In the Susana library, I found a report entitled "Going to Scale with Urine Diversion in Sweden – From Individual
Households to Municipal Systems in 15 Years".  In this article, a project involving 250 houses in the municipality of Vaxholm is described.  However, the article seems to be from around 2010, thus 15 years old.  Would anybody know how such projects have further developed in Sweden?

Are there urine collection systems at a larger scale?

Hello everybody,

I am wondering whether there would be examples of urine collection systems for agglomerations of thousands of inhabitants.  Would anybody know such examples, and what are the technologies used for collection?
