    Abstract:

    This presentation: (1) reports on current investigation of SCWG of fecal sludge to produce fuel gas in a plug flow reactor; (2) reports on current investigation of SCWO of fecal sludge to produce heat in a plug flow reactor; (3) compares and contrasts technologies, focusing on mass balances, energy balances, feasibility, and reliability; (4) reports on current operation of pilot-scale SCWO unit, sited at Duke University, for neighborhood-scale treatment of fecal sludge in the third world.
    The research discussed is funded by the "Re-invent the Toilet Program" sponsored by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The goals of this program will also be discussed.
