This PhD assess with different methods to assess the fate of pathogens in human urine depending on pH, temperature and time. Based on a quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA), the risks for bacterial and protozoan infections related to handling and reuse of urine were calculated and recommendation for storage and reuse, which are dependent on the type of crop to be fertilised, are given.
