Planning and communicating prototype tests for the Nano Membrane Toilet: A critical review and proposed strategy.

摘要: Urban sanitation in growing cities of the Global South presents particular challenges, like speed their growth, high population density, and, often, lack existing wastewater infrastructure. This led to Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation’s Reinvent The Toilet Challenge, a call develop novel, non-sewered technologies, which sparked development various inventions, Nano Membrane Toilet. Complex technologies this entail an extensive product process, including iterations prototype tests. While there is abundance literature discussing how build prototypes, and optimal number tests, has been little focus on plan, communicate, conduct especially endeavour complexity. Multiple aspects testing prototypes are reviewed. A visual test planning tool proposed that encompasses entire process can be used plan communicate tests for ultimately achieve compliance with international standards.
