Water and Sanitation Technologies for Health-care Facilities: A Literature Review of Current and Emerging Water and Sanitation Technologies for Health-care Facilities

Excerpt:  “Water and sanitation in health-care facilities (HCFs) are essential for public health, economic development and quality health care, preventing infection outbreaks and reducing the number of avoidable deaths. Water supply and wastewater treatment in HCFs require specific technologies to meet the unique demands of maintaining a safe and sterile environment despite exposure to potentially hazardous substances used in medical activities. Furthermore, for sustainable provision of water and sanitation services in HCFs, technologies must be appropriate to the specific local context.”
