How does it work?
Air head toilets separate urine from faeces. On the front, a tank collects liquids. Solids are then transferred to the bottom of the toilet on a bed of coconut fibres. This tank is continuously aerated by a fan, creating an airflow that draws out excess moisture while supplying oxygen.
Turn the crank
This process is enhanced by the use of an agitator handle. In this way, the contents are not piled up, but remain reasonably dry and aerated. Thanks to the agitation, the faeces are broken down into smaller parts, giving the microbes a larger working surface, for an effective absence of odours and active decomposition of organic matter. No more unpleasant odours!
Low power consumption
The fan, which must not be switched off, consumes 0.06 Ah. A small 10 W solar panel, a regulator and a small battery are enough to power it. But it can also be connected to the 12 V on board.
Once full, i.e. approximately every day for urine and every month for dry matter for a couple, the waste is emptied into the open sea or into an onshore composting system.
For the rest, these rotomolded toilets seem indestructible. They are made up of different parts which can be assembled together to form up to 32 combinations. As a result, these toilets fit into any boat.
