Beyond the Flush: Rethinking Toilets for Phosphorus Recovery

Bathrooms are in nearly every building and the infrastructure has not changed much. But what if bathroom infrastructure changed the way phosphorus was recovered? In a previous episode, we talked about how urine can be a resource instead of a waste and in this episode we take a long term view on the future of urine diversion technology and its place in modern buildings. Josephine talks with Dr. Boyer and Dr. Merck to understand the engineering and social perspective of this technology. Who knows, toilets may look a little different in the future!
