= Plug (sanitation)
{wiki=Plug_(sanitation)}
In the context of sanitation, "plug" refers to a type of sanitation technology or device that helps manage human waste in areas lacking conventional sewage systems. Specifically, "plug" toilets or plug systems are designed to be simple, cost-effective, and sustainable solutions for waste disposal, particularly in low-resource settings. Plug systems typically work by sealing the toilet bowl to prevent odors and the escape of pathogens while collecting and storing waste safely.
