“…Growth of cities in the Global South is currently overwhelming the pace at which centralised wastewater treatment systems can be extended or implemented (Reymond et al, 2020). Conventional wastewater treatment systems are unable, as the only standard solution, to close the sanitation gap and provide sustainable sanitation for the underserved communities of the Global South.…”

“…Despite the numerous market barriers, nature-based technologies such as constructed wetlands, anaerobic baffled reactors and vermifilters have all found their niches in the treatment of domestic or municipal wastewater within small communities, residential buildings and peri-urban areas -and countries such as India and Indonesia have institutionalised the implementation of small-scale wastewater treatment systems for larger buildings (Reymond et al, 2020) and sanitation centres (GoI, 2014). In México, Chile and Venezuela, several nature-based solutions have been developed and commercialised in the absence of regulations for discharge standards from small-scale wastewater treatment systems.…”

“…Many industrial players, ranging from regional to national, already ply the market with prefabricated ‘septic tanks’ but are currently unregulated (barring precast concrete septic tanks). The issue also persists among small-scale sewage treatment plants (SSTP), prescribed by Ministry of Environment, Forests, and Climate Change (MoEFCC), for buildings with a total built-up area above 20,000 square metres ( Reymond et al, 2020 ). Therefore, the regulators at the national and state level should strive to formalise and regulate the prefabricated OSS system and SSTP industries, and facilitate a transition from conventional OSS configurations to more advanced packaged systems ( Fig.…”

“…Perhaps the most significant shift is the increased acceptance of non-sewered and decentralized sanitation systems as adequate and longterm options, on par with sewer-based centralized treatment systems (62,63). Evidence of this acceptance is increased incorporation in development agendas and the rapid rise of non-sewered solutions, including fecal sludge management (FSM) (64), container-based sanitation (CBS) (65), and decentralized/small-scale sanitation systems (66).…”
