Appropriate Technology and Development
This chapter focuses on applications that have been developed with developing economy markets in mind, with particular reference of meeting the United Nations' water and sanitation Sustainable Development Goals for 2030. In India, the average water supply in 20 utilities surveyed by the Asian Development Bank was 4.3 hours per day and subsequent progress has been limited. In developing economies, the paucity of fixed wire infrastructure, especially in rural areas, redoubles the importance of having access to mobile data transmission and smart phones. A number of reviews covering the potential for smart applications for water and sanitation in developing economies have been published in recent years. The chapter presents three case studies which include Smart Water ATMs in an Informal Settlement in Nairobi, Smart Sanitation Collection in Senegal and India‐Performance‐Based PPP Contract for Water Services.
