The Campinggaz portable toilet is aimed towards the latter half of that trade-off and gives real toilet comfort for an excellent (in our opinion) price. The downside is the size of the thing for transportation. The robust Blue Diamond Nature Calls Composting Toilet takes loads up to 200kg. It has an integrated composter under the seat, which collects solids and allows them to decompose and slide downwards, to be removed via a flap as compost. Dyes: The blue colour serves two purposes – it masks the appearance of waste and helps users identify a functioning toilet. The pink chemicals are for the clean water tank and flush. It has multiple functions, including removing grime, ensuring a smoother flush, cleaning the toilet and eliminating odour. Sometimes you need a guarantee to be sure your investment is worthwhile.

Some designs combine a piston pump (to get pressure into the tank) with a push button to release the water. At the top end of the market, you get battery operated, or ‘electric’ toilets. Why do portable toilets need chemicals? If the toilet is just to be used in moments of desperation then there is no reason why you can’t find a temporary spot inside your tent or campervan to work your magic – we’ve tried this approach and found that it’s a good idea to tell anyone you’re travelling with to keep away in moments like these – danger zone! You can get to know your own family a bit too well under such circumstances! The 7.5l urine container should be emptied daily where possible – not in inland waterways where the nitrogen acts as food for algae. The time taken to fill the solids tank will vary with use. On weekend boats, the solids tank might last a season. On liveaboard boats it might need to be emptied every three to four weeks. Portable flush toilets need chemicals. You need pink chemicals for the flush-water tank to remove grime and eliminate odour, and blue and green chemicals in the waste tank to break down waste and remove gas build-up.It probably goes without saying you should only put human waste down your toilet. Disposable nappies, wipes or any other similar items should never enter the system.

The company will also wipe down the surfaces inside the toilet with bacteria removing agents and replace the toilet roll and hand washing soap and towels. Upon use, the blue chemical sets off a series of chemical reactions. The surfactants break down waste and tissue, rendering them easier to dispose of. Odour-neutralising agents counteract foul smells, creating a more pleasant environment. Additionally, the blue dye serves as a visual indicator of chemical presence and toilet functionality. The Significance of Proper Chemical Usage for Hygiene and Health: The Thetford 565E feels like a proper loo. You sit up high and can occasionally start imagining you’re a king or queen sat on the throne. In fact I did start humming a few Elvis numbers until I remembered what happened to him on his final day. The 565E has a cool little hatch too which opens to reveal your toilet roll, ready for action. Waterless options: These are environmentally friendly and require no chemicals, but they have limitations. The first rule of chemical toilets is that you must only empty them in a specifically designated place. Apart from the obvious hygiene issues, the chemicals should not go straight into the sewerage system.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) states that all portable toilet maintenance should be conducted at least once per week to meet the required standards. Blue and green chemicals are used for the waste tank and break down waste in the holding tank for easy removal. They also remove any bad smells and gas build-up.
