Wk 8 - PSS concept, reflection



Tutor's comment:-
The concept is an improvement from previous and is on the right path of progress. Though there is no incentive and as to why users will agree to help retain waste as nutrients to help grow the plant. There is clear need for unique solution and an innovation is required to push forward the idea. Look into the ecosystem of the slums and find out what they have at current - can they use local resource to build and develop a system and product.

Reflection:-
There is a need to look into other ways to use treat and use the excreta waste. Research into journal readings and discover available low cost techniques. Create a unique selling point in the toilet design, e.g. the product is accessible by young children - perhaps adjustable seat height in office chairs, spring mechanism. Refine a system to support the product or vice versa.
