  • Information Faecal sludge is the mixture of excreta, flush water and anal cleansing material that accumulates in the containment; it also often contains garbage thrown in the toilet, including menstrual products. Faecal sludge can range from solid (with waterless toilets) to more fluid (with septic tanks), in which case it is also called septage.

Scope note

  • While both sewage sludge and faecal sludge are residues from wastewater or sanitation processes, sewage sludge specifically comes from centralized wastewater treatment plants, whereas faecal sludge is associated with decentralized, on-site sanitation systems. (en)
