Engineers in Canada have developed the prototype of a toilet system that can operate without running water, sewage connection or grid power, and is targeted at places such as India where safe sanitation is scarce.

In all seriousness, I see this having additional potential use in Africa.

There's been toilets that just connect to a composter for a decade now, if not more. What rock have these people been living under?

 

[Some JERK]

They still won't use it.

They still won't use it.

I keep saying it, the real solution here is to just line all of India with news papers.

These subhumans just have to have their designated public spaces to shit everywhere. Goddamn shitting Indians!

@DuskEngine, why are your people impossible to housetrain? We can train dogs to do this!

Could we use similar tech to take care of the shitposts tho?

I designed my own Indian toilet that runs without water or conventional sewage system

Spoiler: do not steal

Jokes aside, this is a pretty interesting invention.

If I'm not mistaken, those decompose organic matter over time, like a septic tank. This one straight up incinerates it leaving no sludge behind.

The concept behind the toilet is a household system that can operate without running water or a connection to plumbing, or even without reliable grid power, using a combination of a hand-cranked mechanism, solar power and steam. The excreta is separated into liquid and solid waste.

The solid waste goes into a smoulder chamber that incinerates waste and leaves only ashes, thereby destroying any germs and contaminants. The liquid passes through a sand filter and is pasteurised using the heat from the process for treating solid waste, and what remains can then be either safely discharged or even used for agricultural purposes.

If you're India, you just designate some shitting streets.
