To improve environmental and
health conditions, fecal sludge management (FSM) is a critical component of humanitarian
response. To ... read moreprovide evidence-based recommendations for FSM, I conducted a literature
review of FSM technologies for emergencies. I identified 166 documents, of which 141
were on different FSM technologies, and 25 studies were on the Rohingya refugee camp's
FSM conditions. I: 1) summarized descriptions of different types of technologies for
five stages of FSM; 2) presented conditions of FSM facilities in the Rohingya refugee
camps; 3) identified several necessary design considerations before implementing FSM
technologies; and 4) presented criteria for future studies to assess the appropriate FSM
technologies in the context of Rohingya refugee camps. In this thesis, the summary of
knowledge on FSM for emergencies, the design considerations, and the criteria for future
studies for FSM of the Rohingya refugee camps provide a framework for evidence-based
support for improving existing FSM conditions.read less
