Access to effective wastewater disinfection remains a critical challenge in low-resource and humanitarian settings. Current approaches — primarily chlorination and incineration — face operational constraints, inconsistent performance, and risks from harmful disinfection by-products. This literature summary presents the background, scope, and preliminary framework for a field evaluation of UV-LED technology as a scalable, context-appropriate alternative for disinfecting fecal sludge treatment plant effluent. Building on laboratory research led by the University of British Columbia (UBC) through a Mitacs-funded partnership with CAWST, this project tests the UV-LED reactor under real operating conditions at a CDD site. The collaboration brings together UBC's technical and scientific expertise, CAWST's applied research and knowledge translation role, and CDD's site access and operational experience. The evaluation is structured across four phases: planning and experimental design; installation and commissioning; field testing and monitoring; and data analysis and reporting. Key performance indicators include E. coli reduction, UV transmittance (UVT), energy consumption, fouling behaviour, and operational feasibility under low-resource conditions. Findings will inform practical O&M guidelines, predictive models for scale-up, and recommendations for implementation in similar contexts globally. A final technical report and optional peer-reviewed publication are planned as outputs. This resource is intended for WASH practitioners, researchers, and programme managers working on wastewater treatment, fecal sludge management, and disinfection in low-resource and humanitarian settings.
