Abstract

Free primary education in Kenya has led to an increase in student enrolment and the number of education institutions. This was expected to increase the generation of human waste and energy needs. This study sought to determine the quantity of sewage generated in secondary schools of Kakamega County, Kenya for potential bioenergy generation. Multistage/cluster sampling was used to select both public and private schools. A cross-sectional survey research design was employed and data collected through key informants, interviews, digital cameras and observation checklist. It was established that the quantity of Sewage generated was 17, 662.3 tons per school academic year
