Household Water Treatment & Safe Storage in Sub-Saharan Africa

Abstract

Synthetic dataset modelling household water treatment (HWTS) adoption, water quality, and waterborne disease outcomes across three settings in SSA. HWTS methods (boiling, chlorination, SODIS, filtration) are critical for households using unimproved or unreliable water sources. PLOS Medicine (2014) found 38% of "improved" sources still had E. coli. SODIS meta-analysis (BMJ Open 2020) showed 26% diarrhoea reduction.

Scenarios

Rural Unimproved: Remote communities relying on unprotected wells/surface water; 65% E. coli contamination, 20% HWTS adoption.
Peri-Urban Mixed: Unreliable piped + alternative sources; 45% contamination, 30% HWTS adoption.
Urban Improving: Cities with expanding piped networks; 25% contamination, 40% HWTS adoption.

Validation

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("electricsheepafrica/household-water-treatment", "rural_unimproved")

Limitations

Synthetic data; not for clinical decision-making.
HWTS efficacy simplified from heterogeneous field studies.
Does not capture seasonal variation in water quality or supply interruptions.
