Re: A Sh*tty Little Book: Urine Diverting Dehydrating Toilet, Good toilet, excellent fertilizer!

I have published a book on UDDT's that is available on Amazon ( link ). I have attached the front and back cover. Everything in this book is available from various sources but no one has put all the information together in one place, in one book. I wanted the book to be a one stop source for all needed information on UDDT's, including the negative ramifications of sewage as well as the positives. After reading the book I want the reader to be able to:
- Understand the problem,
- The solution, how to sanitize the feces
- How to use the urine and feces as a fertilizer
- How to construct the UDDT.
- How to market the system

The black and white copy is relatively cheap at $6.95 while the color copy is $22.00. Whatever money comes in will be used to construct UDDT's.
Currently there are several planned in Oaxaca Mexico.

The accompanying website is www.sanitationhealthintransition.com. The
website recently went live and is still being updated.

Re: Need photos of UDDT's (for new book about UDDTs)

Dear Tore,

F H Mughal mentioned already our newest publication (thank you for that!), we have a number of UDDT photos and also all types of details of toilets, smell stops.
Maybe best if you can let me know what publication you are doing and what exactly you need, can you please send me an e-mail and we can have a skype to clarify in detail?

There are some great photos that I would like to use. How can I get access to the photos that are at least 300dpi or better?

Re: Need photos of UDDT's (for new book about UDDTs)

Thanks for the help. I have opened the website and as soon as I figure out how to download the photos I will insert into my document. I need to get a nine year old to help me with the technical issues.
Sorry for the delay in responding.

Re: Need photos of UDDT's (for new book about UDDTs)

Dear Tore,

No problem, we have stacks of photos of UDDTs and reuse activities available (all under an open access licence) - as well as photos of lots of other sanitation topics, too.

You can find photos on UDDTs in three ways: Photos about reuse activities can be found like this: Hope this helps?
Make sure you post a link to your book once it's done, and how about introducing your work with UDDTs here on the forum as well?

Need photos of UDDT's (for new book about UDDTs)

I am finishing a book on UDDT's that can be used to design/build a UDDT as well as the best use for the fertilizer generated.
I need photos of UDDT's as well a photos of crops grown with the fertilizer generated. Any related UDDT photos would be greatly appreciated. Your photos will be properly cited.
