The waterless contemporary toilet basins

The waterless toilets are a great invention for those that care about the environment and adopted a socially responsible life style. The principle behind them is that waste and the microorganism it contains are not flushed, but transformed into compost, which can be safely used as a fertilizer. These toilets are currently available in remote and self-contained systems. Therefore, choosing the right size of basin will depend on the available space, the number of people using it, and what you intend to do with the compost it produces.

The major alternative to the compositing toilets are the incinerating lavatories. The main difference between them is that whilst the compositing toilets transform the waste into a special bin, the incineration models will use an auger that pushes the waste into a small incinerator. Even though homeowners will need to install an exhaust pipe, the advantage of these toilets is that it requires little maintenance, as the ashes need to be cleared out every three to six months.
