Quantitative Sustainable Design for sanitation and resource recovery systems
Project description
What is QSDsan?
QSDsan is an open-source, community-led platform for quantitative sustainable design of sanitation and resource recovery systems. It leverages the structure and modules developed in the BioSTEAM platform with additional functions tailored to sanitation processes.
As an open-source and impact-driven platform, QSDsan aims to identify configuration combinations, systematically probe interdependencies across technologies, and identify key sensitivities to contextual assumptions through the use of quantitative sustainable design methods (techno-economic analysis and life cycle assessment and under uncertainty).
All systems developed with QSDsan are included in the package exposan - exposition of sanitation and resource recovery systems.
