Ekam Eco Solutions works in the domains of Sustainable Sanitation, Value-added Bamboo Products and Sustainable Livelihoods. In the domain of Sustainable Sanitation, the objective of Ekam Eco Solutions is to design, develop and disseminate safe, sustainable and culturally appropriate sanitation solutions so that communities experience better health and abundance of pure water bodies is restored. Ekam's approach to sanitation recognizes the opportunity to provide water less urinals, source-separation toilets and nutrient recovery reactors with the additional feature of making every effort to break the pathogen cycle and close the nutrient cycle. The overall approach is to close the sanitation-agriculture loop. Ekam's continuing effort is to evolve strategies and solutions for communities by employing user-centered design process. While there is an urgent need to increase sanitation coverage, it is important to ensure that another chain of problems such as water contamination, pathogen propagation are not caused by rapid deployment of water-based sanitation systems. It is now well known that untreated products from sanitation systems get discharged in water bodies leading to health risks, environmental degradation, water contamination etc. It is often not recognized that all of us are affected to contamination and health risks owing to improper waste disposal which are also at the core of conventional flush and forget as well as drop and store sanitation systems. Ekam has commenced its work by addressing the gap in product development and innovation and is in the process of rolling out a number of innovative pre-fab and custom solutions which could be implemented in rural, urban, institutional and individual levels. We not only strive to create green products and systems with low embodied energy, we are also developing strategies for sustainable businesses around them.
