INTRODUCTION
• Origin of Ferrocement dates back to 1853. It witnessed decline in
consequent years due to limited research work back then.
• We have used the same product in an innovated manner called
‘Ferrocast Products’.
• The large number of toilets required in the country, was seen as an
opportunity to implement this system.
• The various advantages that this system has over its counterparts,
makes it the only option available to meet the demand in the
stipulated time.
NEED OF THE HOUR!
• In India, it’s easier to find cell phone
coverage in the most backward villages than a proper toilet.
• 626 million people in the country (the highest in the world)
defecate in the open.
• The consequential health hazards would be beyond
imagination.
NEED OF FERROCAST SYSTEM
• Our Honorable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has cited
the immediate need of toilets, having a clean India in mind.
• The Ministry of Drinking Water and Sanitation has set a target
of 12.5 million toilets for 2014-15.
• This accounts to constructing one toilet per second.
• Such a huge demand in a short span is not possible using
conventional R.C.C.
ADVANTAGES OF THE SYSTEM
• Light weight sections, ensuring ease of erection in large
numbers.
• Structurally sound design.
• Permanent structure with a life of 50 years.
• Entirely precast, thus eliminating delays due to human errors.
• Seemingly the only option for the huge demand of toilets in
the country would be precasting the same.
DESCRIPTION OF THE TECHNOLOGY
• Ferrocast sections are cast in the casting yard under expert
supervision.
• Each panel weighs a maximum of 120 kgs, enabling ease in
handling and erection.
• The panels once taken to site, are connected to each other by means
of bolts and anchor fasteners.
• High strength bonding mortar is used for positive bonding and
waterproofing.
• A team of 6 people is sufficient for erection of one unit including
septic tank, IN HALF A DAY.
• Manufacture of panels can be done in bulk depending on the
number of moulds.
• Panels for 2 toilet units can be manufactured in one single day,
which can easily be doubled by using twice the number of
moulds and larger yard space.
• Erection work can be done simultaneously at different
locations by multiple teams, for early completion of the target.
• To increase productivity and reach, large number of casting
yards are required at different geographical locations all over
India.

WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
• The waste management technology used is ‘Packed media
anaerobic digester with facultative and anaerobic bacteria
growth’.
• The packed media is used such that, it develops attached
growth of facultative bacteria which decomposes the organic
matter in the waste.
