Urinals can be used in homes as well as within public facilities. Traditionally urinals are provided adjacent In some cases, the provision of a urinal is useful to a toilet. Urinals can prevent fouling the misuse of toiletsdry systems (e.g., UDDT, especially in schoolsU.2). By putting a small targetPortable waterless urinals have been developed for use at large gatherings, or painted fly near to improve the sanitation facilities and reduce the point load of wastewater discharged at the drainsite. In this way, the amount a large volume of spraying urine can be collected (and either used or splashing discharged at a more appropriate location or time) and the remaining toilets can be reduced; this type of user-guidance can help improve the cleanliness of the facilityin number or used more efficiently. Urinals are appropriate for every climate.
===Health Aspects/Acceptance===
The Urinal is a comfortable and easily accepted User Interface. In some cases, the provision of a urinal is useful to prevent the misuse of dry systems (e.g. [[Urine Diverting Dry Toilet|UDDT]]). Although simple in construction and design, urinals can have a large impact on the well-being of a community. When men have access to a urinal, they may urinate less often in public, which reduces unwanted odours and makes women feel more comfortable. Men have generally accepted waterless urinals, as they do not call for any change of behaviour.
==Health Aspects/Acceptance=Operation & Maintenance===The Urinal Maintenance is a comfortable and easily accepted User Interfacesimple, but should be done frequently, especially for waterless urinals. In some cases, the provision All of a Urinal is useful to prevent the misuse of dry systems surfaces should be cleaned regularly (e.g. [[Urine Diverting Dry Toilet|UDDT]]). Urinalsbowl, although simple in construction slab and design, can have a large impact on the well-being of a community. When men have access wall) to a Urinal, they may be encouraged to refrain from urinating in public, which reduces unwanted prevent odours and allows women to feel more comfortable. Men have generally accepted waterless Urinals, as they do not call for any change minimize the formation of behaviourstains.
Particularly, in waterless urinals, calcium- and magnesium-based minerals and salts can precipitate and build
up in pipes and on surfaces where urine is constantly present. Washing the bowl with a mild acid (e.g., vinegar) and/or hot water can prevent the build-up of mineral deposits and scaling. Stronger (> 24% acetic) acid or a caustic soda solution (2 parts water to 1 part soda) can be used for removing blockages. However, in some
cases manual removal may be required.

The `Eco-Lily' from Ethiopia is made out of a common liquid container with a used light bulb acting as a floating `odour-lock' to reduce smells. The `Eco-Lily' is a device to be used as urinal both by men and women. SUDEA's experiences have showed that men can use it without any explanation while women often need some information on how to use it because of their biological difference.
