Abstract:
This article summarizes five of the most common HWTS options—chlorination, filtration (biosand and ceramic), solar disinfection, combined filtration/chlorination, and combined flocculation/chlorination—and describes implementation strategies for each option. The authors identify implementing organizations and the successes, challenges, and obstacles they have encountered. Sources of funding and the potential to distribute and sustain each option on a large scale are considered. The article ends with proposed goals for future research and implementation.
