The sanitation system configurator is a powerful online application that allows the eCompendium user to develop his/her own sanitation service chain (or system respectively). By clicking on a technology of choice the configurator will automatically show all remaining technology options prior and after the respective technology based on the input and output products that correspond with the selected technology. Depending on e.g. already available technology components, user preferences, site conditions or desired output products the configurator can be used to identify full sanitation service chain solutions. This can either be done the classical way from the user interface via the storage, collection, transport to treatment and final reuse or disposal (from left to right) or alternatively with a starting point at any stage of the system. Through reverse engineering sanitation service chain solutions can also be identified from the end of the sanitation chain based on e.g. a desired output product (from right to left). For example, if the goal of the sanitation chain is to produce compost as an end product, a technology can be selected with compost as an output product. The configurator will then automatically show only those available upstream technologies that would correspond with the selected technology.
