The whole civilized world uses biotoilets. This design is fully consistent with the generally accepted sanitary and hygienic standards. Toilets appeared on the domestic market relatively recently. At the moment, in specialized points of sale are realized biotoilets and toilet booths. At one time, the acute shortage of ordinary toilets in public places, as well as places of active work and recreation led to the invention of biological toilets. As practice has shown, biotoilets are an excellent alternative to conventional toilets under the same conditions.

How the biotoilet works
Most lyudy mistakenly believe that any stand-alone plastic cubicle is a dry closet. This is not true. It is accepted to divide all cabins (toilets, to which the sewerage and water supply are not provided) into two separate types.
The first one is a toilet in which feces are split in the usual, natural way, the so-called peat bio-toilet.
The name is due to the fact that the process of decomposition of fecal masses is stimulated with the help of natural biological components, in most cases peat is used. With the help of electrical appliances in peat bio-toilet, ventilation, heating and drying are carried out. Most often peat biotours are stationary, they are used, as a rule, at home. It is designed for a family of 2-4 people.
The second type is a bio-toilet, in which fecal fission occurs with the help of special chemical compounds. This includes mobile street cabins, toilets intended for campsites and separate rooms, as well as block toilet cabins.
The principle of this type of dry closet implies a completely independent process of collection of faeces in special tanks, which does not require any third-party control. A characteristic heavy and unpleasant odor is neutralized with the help of a special chemical compound, which is also called a liquid for biotoilets. The liquid also prevents the proliferation of harmful microorganisms and fungi in the process of active cleavage of stool. By this principle, most popular brands of toilets work, for example, the thetford bio-toilet.
The kind of toilets in which feces are decomposed by chemicals is used most often. Cabs of this type of biotoilets can have removable or stationary tanks for collection of faeces. The principle of operation of such a dry closet is almost the same as an apartment toilet. The only difference is that the cabin is notable for its compactness, mobility and no need to connect to the sewage and water supply.
It can be either a mobile toilet for personal use on a personal or country plot, or a mobile cubicle for installation in public places. Booths of dry closets and portable toilets are very light, they are easy to deliver and install in any necessary place.
Construction of a chemical dry closet, the working principle
The chemical portable dry closet works on a simple principle. A liquid without impurities from the tank, which is intended for draining, flushes the feces into the lower tank, which serves as a storage tank. Here, in fact, the chemical treatment of fecal matter and neutralization of an unpleasant odor occurs. When the storage tank fills up completely, it can be easily disconnected from the booth and transported to a municipal waste disposal site.
The storage tank is equipped with a lever, by means of which the process of removal of the full tank is carried out. In the lower part of the tank there is a nozzle for drainage and buttons for resetting debris. The entire construction ensures a thorough and rapid emptying of the tank from the feces. Empty the tank thoroughly washed and filled with a solution of biological products.
These designs of biotoilets I produce with tanks that have the most "running" volumes - 12 and 21 liters. The tank, with a capacity of 12 liters, is designed for about one week of use, and a 21 liter tank for two weeks.
In addition, manufacturers have developed and implemented models with installed electric pumps, pumps, as well as indicators that give a signal, if the bottom capacity is completely filled. The complete absence of a characteristic heavy odor, compliance with sanitary and hygienic standards allow using this type of biotoilets practically anywhere, and, if necessary, even in a dwelling.
Dry closet for summer residence
Not all household plots and suburban areas, which are located far from the city limits, are connected to the water supply and sewage system. In the overwhelming majority of cases, summer residents and owners of private housing solve the problem of water supply independently, arranging wells and wells at their sites. However, the question of how to use the toilet remains open.
If you do not have enough time and money to allocate a place for a stationary toilet, make necessary documents and conduct expensive construction works, installing a portable or a cassette bio-toilet will completely eliminate this problem.
These structures, equipped with a water flush, will provide comfort and maximum convenience for using the toilet in places where habitual housing conditions are not available. Very often such designs are used in houses on wheels, yachts, in markets, shopping pavilions, etc.
A very good option for the suburban area - a biotulet potti. Its cost is quite low, but at the same time it is a very practical design. Toilet potti will be useful not only for summer residents and owners of suburban areas, but for older people and people with disabilities.
Electrical bio-toilet
One of the varieties of such toilets is an electric bio toilet. Here it is necessary to clarify the temptation that representatives of this species are very expensive models. Externally, the electric bio-toilet looks the same as usual. Today electric toilets produce more than a dozen countries.
The electric bio-toilet is very comfortable and practical in operation and maintenance, it can be used as a biotoilet for the home. This type of biotoilets is also equipped with two tanks designed for liquid and solid waste. If you install an electric bio toilet toilet yourself, you must take care of the ventilation device in advance. The ventilation pipe can be withdrawn through the wall or through the roof. Before you start using the toilet, it must be connected to a household electrical outlet of 220 volts.
Peat toilets
This model, although it is much cheaper than electric, is not much inferior to it in convenience and practicality. The peat toilet is also equipped with two tanks. An unpleasant odor is neutralized with the ventilation system, which is equipped with this model. The peat toilet, like the above models, is equipped with a tank with two compartments. Unpleasant odor and increased humidity are neutralized with the ventilation system, which is equipped with this model. As we mentioned above, in the process of decomposition of feces in this bio-toilet, peat is used. It must be poured every time you visit the toilet.
However, this does not cause much discomfort - to pour peat it is only necessary to turn a special lever.
When the peat toilet is used by several people at the same time, it is necessary to take care of installing a hose that will remove excess liquid from the tank. After peat processing waste from the toilet can be stacked on a separate pile for complete decomposition, then used as a fertilizer for beds and garden.
The bottom tank of peat bio-toilet is designed for about 120 kilograms.
Do not wait until the tank is full, it needs to be cleaned about once every two to three weeks. This is quite enough for a peat toilet to function without problems. On the collection tank for feces, wheels are installed, which makes it very easy to transport the filled tank. The manufacturer strongly recommends buying granules of the company, which is specified in the attached documentation.
How to choose and install a bio-toilet yourself - several recommendations
When buying a bio-toilet, be sure to pay attention:
- What size does the waste container have?
- Is the toilet equipped with an indicator that indicates the filling of the lower container.
- The dimensions of the cab, in particular the height - it should be standard, as for the cabins used in the apartments.
- Is there a maximum load limiter.
- Is there a two-side flush that ensures maximum cleanliness in the booth.
- In addition, ask the seller if the pressure valve is convenient, whether it allows the device to be evenly emptied without unnecessary splashing.
Speaking of installation, it's easiest to install portable devices - almost any place is suitable for them. For an electric bio-toilet it is necessary to have a power supply of 220 volts. To make ventilation for the toilet, use a corrugated pipe.
The pipe is installed in a special hole in the tank lid. Outside the pipe is led out through the wall or roof of the cabin. The pipe must have a height of at least one meter. When the lower tank is cleaned, the pipe must be disconnected.
For many models of biotoilets, ventilation is a prerequisite.
