OMNI PROCESSORTHE INGENIOUS MACHINE THAT TURNS FAECES INTO DRINKING WATER

Major Problems Faced In

Developing Countries

THERE ARE MANY PROBLEMS FACED IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. THE

TWO WHICH WE ARE GOING TO DISCUSS HERE ARE:

LACK OF PROPER SEWAGE TREATMENT AND SANITATION

LACK OF PURE DRINKING WATER

Lack Of Proper Sewage Treatment

And Improved Sanitation

A shocking number of people, at least 2 billion, use latrines that

aren’t properly drained. Others simply defecate out in the open.

Toilets in the developing world are most commonly located over pits.

Septic trucks are hired to pump out the sewage and carry it away. Too

often, the dumping site for the sewage is a river, stream, bay, ocean,

etc., with no further treatment whatsoever.

Causes Of Lack Of Improved

Sanitation

This creates a huge problem. The sewage contaminates the drinking

water, causing people to get sick.

It also causes economic stresses to the countries with improper

sanitation

For Example, Kenya loses about $350 million per year

LACK OF PURE DRINKING WATER

More than 750 million lack access to safe drinking water

Causes Of Lack Of Pure Drinking

Water

Each day more than 840,000 people die due to waterborne

diseases

SOLUTION TO THESE PROBLEMS

OMNI PROCESSOR

WHAT IS OMNI PROCESSOR??

The Omni Processor is a cheap and simple sewage sludge treatment

system designed specifically for poor and developing countries.

It is manufactured by Janicki Bioenergy and funded by Bill and

Melinda gates foundation.

It not just treats sewage but also turns sewage into pure drinking

water and electricity.

HOW DOES OMNIPROCESSOR

WORK??

SEWAGE COMPOSITION

SEWAGE CONTAINS ABOUT 80% WATER AND 20% BIOMASS. THE BIOMASS HAS MORE THAN ENOUGH ENERGY IN IT TO STERILIZE AND BOIL

THE WATER.

PROCESS

ADVANTAGES OF OMNI

PROCEESOR OVER OTHERS

No fuel needed to operate the plant that is the plant is self sufficient

The ash produced is pathogen free

The plant works at a high temperature(1000°C) therefore there is no

odour while operating

Converts water vapours into drinkable water instead of releasing

them into atmosphere

Meets all environmental regulations

STATE OF DEVELOPMENT

The Janicki Bioenergy Omni Processor - Model S100 started as a

proof-of-concept project in 2013. The model is up and running in

Dakar, Senegal. This location is perfect for continuing development and measuring real-world performance.

In spring 2016, The first commercial Omni Processor (OP), Model S200

will be ready to ship which will be able to process faecal sludge of

around 100-200k people providing drinking water for 35k people

and electricity for 25k household.
