Energy Saving by Micro Flush Toilet
- Representative Participant
- LIXIL Corporation
Outline of GHG Mitigation Activity
This study is aimed at reducing energy-related treatment water and waste water as well as contributing to water saving and environmental improvement by installing super-water-saving toilets (11,200 toilet units) developed by LIXIL Corporation into the low-cost housing project (5,600 house units) of the National Housing Corporation (NHC) in Kenya.
Expected GHG Emission Reductions
33.1 tCO2/year
Reference Emission: 36.792 tCO2/Year
Water required for standard flush toilet (10 liter /time)
x Emission Factor related to Water Use (0.36 [gCO2/m3], MoE)
Project Emission: 3.679tCO2/Year
Water required for micro flush toilet (1 liter /time)
Assumption: 5 flushes/day
