BUILDING SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS TOGETHER WITH VILLAGES IN TANZANIA Together with the Wind Corporation, Jengo’s aim is to construct a community centre that can provide clean water, electricity and cooking facilities for approximately 150 villagers. The end goal of these efforts is an improvement of living standards through community-driven, low-tech solutions in the village of Kiobani, whereby shared knowledge on how to create and manage solutions such as those shown below will be at the forefront. The community center is a 85m2 building that will have a latrine, shared kitchen with water outlet, a mobile phone charging station and a communal space that can be used for teaching children of the village, dining and other activities.
ANNUAL GOALS

TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS 1 // DRINKING WATER FILTER First layer of gravel filters out larger sediments. The sand layer filters fine impurities such as bacteria, viruses and parasites. The last filter removes contaminants utilizing chemical adsorption. VOLUME FOR 1.000 LITER TANKS The process time for the water to filter is approx. 1-1,2 hour WATER INPUT The water runs from the creek through a electrical water pump – with a 110 volt/370 Watt/6o Hz/ 2.5 amp motor MAINTENANCE When outlet flow decreases gravel and sand layer is replaced with new layers approximately once a year.
2 // SAFE COOKING BIOGAS DIGESTER The digester will produce approx. 3,6 m3 gas from 150 kg cow manure. Which equals 12 hours of cooking gas per stove per day..
3 // SOLAR CELL’S & WIND TURBINES FOR ELECTRICITY SOLAR CELLS
Two solar panels will be installed with a 25 years warranty. They will produce an average of 100 Watts per unit. WIND TURBINE One wind turbine is is installed with a 2 year warranty and a generator that can produce 1000 Watt at wind speeds on 8 m/s CONNECTION Each solution is wired to a 12 V battery and connected to a 1500 Watt inverter that converts 12 to 220 V for lights, cell phone charging, TV and a water pump
4 // TELEVISION FOR EDUCATION DIGITAL CLASSROOM Shule Direct is a site that contains digital step-by-step learning that gives the children of the village access to a online teaching UPLOADS Every 1-2 month their will be a partner visiting the Center to upload new content to the TV through a external hard drive. TELEVISION A 50 inch flat screen TV with a electricity use of under 110 Watts will be installed in the classroom and placed in a aluminium frame for security
5 // MALARIA REDUCTION LIGHT FACADE CLADDING By allowing air-flow through the building using light facade cladding and mesh material the number of mosquitos inside is reduced significantly.

WATER FILTER Water is filtered through one 500 l tank with gravel, sand and charcoal. The processed water is contained in another 500l tank. Processed water is tapped from both an outside and an indoor water outtake. Water is pumped from creek or well to the filtertank. Also rainwater is collected at the roof and led to the filter tank. The two tanks are easily accesable on order to easy maintenance and service.

BIOGAS DIGESTER In an undergrund tank excrements from humans and animals are fermentating in order to create biogas which can be used at the kitchen gas stove. Unsing biogas for cooking in stead of wood-fire is both preferable when it comes to energy efficiency and a more better indoor environment.
