In a Bio Toilet the Night Soil (Human Waste) is let off into a Tank called Bio Digester. Bio Digester tank contains a combination of anaerobic bacteria. A formation developed by DRDO (Defense Research Development Organization). Night Soil Degradation occurs through microbial reaction which converts it into Bio Gas. The smell of night soil, the disease causing organisms in the night soil and the solid matter are eliminated totally. On dry weight basis 90% of the solid waste is reduced. The anaerobic process in- activates the pathogens responsible for water borne diseases. Bio digester serves as reaction vessel for bio methanation and provides the anaerobic conditions and required temp for the bacteria. The optimum temp is maintained by microbial heat, insulation of the reactor. Disposes human waste in a 100 % ECO friendly manner. Generates color less, odor less inflammable bio gas (can be used for cooking heating) and absolutely clear odor less water. Water is full of nutrients and minerals and is good for irrigation purpose of nearby gardens, lawns etc. does not require any septic Tank, Sewage Tank connectivity. Inoculums (combination of Anaerobic bacteria) charging is only once during the entire life of Bio Toilet. No need of connectivity to the sewage line, septic tank. No disposal of sludge is required. Routine cleaning chemicals like phenyl, soap, Kerosene etc. do not harm Bio Toilet or the inoculums.
