Why do people get queasy when the subjects of toilets come up? Its a natural body function and water - based toilet systems pollute huge volumes of water unnecessarily. Imagine that with a world population of 7 billion!
We, personally successfully used a compost toilet system for 2 years on our small farm. It was virtually oudorless too. We used sawdust as a sprinkling on top each time.
There are a variety of water-less toilet systems. I have seen some that seperate solid and liquid waste and use the liquid waste for ammonia/urea.
