Constructed Wetland
Description of the emergency context
Kutupalong camp has a natural terrain with hills and canals flowing through the downhills. The forced Myanmar inhabitants have their shelters mostly at different levels of the hills, which makes it difficult to desludge toilets pits.
Description of the treatment process
No description
Assessment & design (feasibility)
The sludge is transported to the intermediate transfer station located at the uphill side of the camp. Once the sludge is transported to an intermediate transfer station, it goes to the constructed wetland located at the downhill side by gravity. An underneath pipe connects the transfer station to the constructed wetland. The treatment plant will be soon decommissioned as it is set up in a flood prone area.
