Abstract: A solid-liquid separator including a hollow structure. The hollow structure may include a separator portion having a solid-liquid-mixture inlet and a curved-funnel-shaped inner separator surface. The hollow structure may further include a collector portion having a frustoconically-shaped inner liquid guide surface. The separator portion and the collector portion may be disposed such that a spout of the curved-funnel-shaped inner separator surface and a narrower end of the frustoconically-shaped inner liquid guide surface may be directed towards each other.

Abstract: A waste treatment device may include a solid-liquid separator which is configured to receive and separate waste into solids and liquid. The waste treatment device may further include a solids treatment arrangement which is configured to receive the solids from the solid-liquid separator, wherein the solids treatment arrangement comprises a disinfection unit having a heating mechanism configured to heat, without burning, the solids so as to disinfect the solids to convert the solids into pathogen-free-treated-solids. The waste treatment device may further include a liquid treatment arrangement which is configured to receive the liquid from the solid-liquid separator and to treat the liquid so as to convert the liquid into pathogen-free-effluent. The solid-liquid separator may include a curved-funnel-shaped inner separator surface and a frustoconically-shaped inner liquid guide surface whereby the respective narrower ends are directed towards each other.
