Phylife:. Very Good sir/ma .These are the Comparison . A large underground reservoir is needed to store waste from the flush toilet. The Biofil system is smaller to septic system and there is no need for reservoir for the same number of user Soil conditions (such as rocky and clayey soil or areas with high water tables) may make it difficult or inadvisable to excavate. The ground does not need to be excavated to be installed; it can be placed above the ground. The waste from the system when extracted requires further treatment before releasing into the environment. No further treatment is required, as the solid waste is rapidly decomposed. The waste decomposed under anaerobic condition, creating a semi-solid sludge. Harmful gases (methane and hydrogen sulphide) are also released. The biofil toilet operates under aerobic conditions as liquid waste is immediately filtered out. The only bye products of the system are water and carbon-dioxide. The reservoir may get filled up with waste and leak or overflows requiring its contents to pump out. It does not get full, leaks or overflows and there is no need to extract waste. An improperly designed or ill maintained septic tank system leads to pollution of the ground water The danger of ground water pollution is minimal, as all feces is removed from the biofil digester and waste water is discharged into the biologically- active layer of the soil (top soil). The septic system requires inspection chambers in addition to the tank, and the tank must be placed at the vantage point in order for the dumping truck to easily access it. There is never a need for evacuation of the biofil digester, it can be sited anywhere within the compound. A damaged or collapsed septic tank can affect the foundation of the building as it is normally sited closed to the main building. The cost of a typical septic tank is always high depending on the location.The Biofil is place above the ground or semi underground and it cannot affect the building foundation.

rotecch77: This is 95% close to the alternative I have seen, just that it is all horizontal. Looking to achieve an alternative to this simple stainless railing for the outside part of the house. Don't know if the iron one you attached will make sense for that outside or I should just stick to the stainless railing attached below.

adanny01: You think it is because it is chaeper to build Roads in the North? Consider the below: The President of Nigeria has approced the sum of $1.9Billion for the construction of a Rail Line from Kano to NIGER REPUBLIC! Meanwhile, the Lagos - Calabar Rail Line that is needed to develop commerce in Nigeria, especially the South-South, South-East and South S/West axis is on permamnent stop due to lack of funds.. When did NIGER REPUBLIC become the Capital of Nigeria? |

bixton: The North is mostly barren, deserted lands. Most of the roads there are not economically viable. If you want to confirm, let them put a Toll of the roads in the North and the South an dlet us see what percentage of the Tool the Southern Roads generate, the North will generate. Otherwise, just signify that Private Partnership should chose Roads they want to build, Operate AND TOLL for say 25yrs... and see whether any of the private Operators will chose to build Roads in the North, knowing that they will most likely not recoup their investment back in the given time frame. That is a measure of the economic viability test for the Roads in both regions |

One4me: The rail line makes sense die. Niger Republic will use our ports and railway to move goods to their landlocked country. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by One4me: 9:41pm On Sep 26, 2020 |
EgunMogaji2: There is NO PORT in Kano, where it starting from! Also, No Port in Nige Republic. What about Nigerians moving goods from the Deep Sea Port in Calabar and all of South South to Lagos/South West, Middle Belt and Abuja? Which one should take priority, now that Nigeria is said to be broke? Cant Niger Republic build their own Rail line with their own money? |

But the story is here, in Punch Newspapers: https://punchng.com/breaking-fg-approves-1-9bn-rail-line-to-niger-republic/ Olalekan Adetayo, Abuja My question was why not expend this money on the Calabar-Lagos Rail Line that is abandoned, for lack of funds. What better benefit does a rail line from Kano to Niger Republic offer, than that of Calabar, where there is a Deep Sea Port, Refineries, Oil and Gas, etc. to Lagos, transitting the whole Eastern Region, Mid West and South South and South West? 1 Like |

The link I posted is a public Twitter thread. Kano to Niger rail line is not a standalone line. It is a part of Lagos-kano- Niger line. Niger is landlocked and hence their goods from Lag port will be delivered through this LAKAJI rail route. Also, the rail line is part of a big rail route currently been built. Niger Republic is also doing their own part that will terminate at Nigeria border. There are several threads on Twitter with answers to your questions. You can check them out in your free time One4me: 2 Likes |

oxx4: So, instead of answering that simple question, you are still referring me to go on Tweeter and be searching for the answer, not minding the over a hundred words you have posted? Why cant my answer be part of all those words you posted? ![]() ![]() Let me repeat the Question again: My question was why not expend this money on the Calabar-Lagos Rail Line that is abandoned, for lack of funds. What better benefit does a rail line from Kano to Niger Republic offer, than that of Calabar, where there is a Deep Sea Port, Refineries, Oil and Gas, etc. to Lagos, transitting the whole Eastern Region, Mid West and South South and South West? I am asking you or anyone who support this collosal waste of funds borne out of Nepotism, to justify the Kano-Niger Republic Rail line and you are telling me Geography? ![]() ![]() It is a "compare and contrast" question., to determine which one is more important at this moment. 1 Like |

omanzo02: I am struggling to see where having 2 bedroom apartment both ensuite with a visitors toilet is an overkill design. I would question the judgement of an architect that made that observation. So you live in a two bedroom apartment with your wife occupying one room, and your two young kids occupying the other room, then you have a family friend over for Sunday brunch, are you saying the family friend should use either of the ensuite toilets for convenience? No! It is not appropriate in this day and age. I don't need to bump into your wife or children or keep saying sorry each time I invaded their privacy on my way to ease myself in your house. There is a reason behind having a designated visitors toilet in an apartment or house. Any business there is private, and we all deserve some dignity and enjoy some level of comfort too within a shelter. Therefore, any modern house design should avoid potential breach of privacy and comfort as part of its functionality. A communal 2 ensuite bedroom apartment without a visitors toilet fell below functional threshold irrespective. A good architect knew that. 2 Likes |

One4me: It has been talked about and clarified that, that rail construction will not enter NIGER Republic but stopped where Nigeria ends. Will it not be stupid for Nigeria to construct rail road for Niger? Habah!! You guys want to blame Buhari for all these constructions in the North, while your brother was there for 8 years, he cannot even construct road linking Lagos to Abeokuta, his own town and same road he uses to Lagos now very often. Sorry guys, I dont like getting involved in Politics, but this pinched my nerves. Hajji M. 5 Likes |
