Composting toilets

[Will Firstbrook WCB of BC]

Hi Tim, 

You could try Earthship Volume 2 by Michael Renolds. They have designs
you can re-produce, basicly solar burning and/or composting toilet. Both
have a bench seat when opened the fan comes on to make the toilet
odorless. Both I believe have a tumbler to stir the waste the solar one
is built next to the south wall of the structure. The sun heats/burns
the waste. If there is a lack of sun the solar toilet acts like the
composting toilet. For both toilets you need to use an outside wall for
for easy cleanout access.

Good luck in your quest.

Regards, 
Will
