SFD Report - Hetauda Sub-Metropolitan City Nepal
Hetauda Sub-Metropolitan City (SMC) is situated in the confluence of the two prominent national highways viz. Tribhuvan highway and Mahendra highway. Hetauda Municipality was expanded as Sub-Metropolitan City in 2014. It has 19 wards and covers the area of 261.58 sq.km.
According to national population and housing census 2021, Hetauda Sub-Metropolitan City has a total population of 193,576 and 46,566 households.
The SFD graphic shows that 61% of the excreta or faecal sludge generated are safely managed while 39% are unsafely managed. The safely managed Faecal Sludge (FS) generated by 34% of the population is temporary as this FS is only contained. So, once the containment gets filled and the FS from the containment is emptied, the percentage of unsafely managed FS would increase. The faecal sludge generated from 27% of the population is contained and safely treated in anaerobic biogas digesters.
