Abstract

This research is conducted to generate and select a concept design of portable toilet facility with self-water purification system to fulfill the refugees’ needs that are lacking of clean water in evacuation areas. The preliminary design of the product was developed with TRIZ and ESQEFD methods and resulted in portable toilet with a squat toilet, faucet, water tank and purification as the main part. Those product specifications are then translated into detail technical specification to build the full concept design. As a result, the self-water purification system will be equipped with ultrafiltration membrane, which has range the size from 0.05 µm to 1 mm. In addition, fiberglass will be used as a main material of the portable toilet to consider the weight and mobility of this facility.
