Your Toilet set up and survival | |
Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 75387959 United States 09/23/2017 01:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You may have to flush only occasionally with water from your hot tub or other source. But you need to flush. You need one of them older toilets with wide openings that doesn't plug as readily. ========== BTW. I'm going to get a sewer snake. For when you can't get a plumber. (I've needed one in 36 years but that's enough to warrant this purchase.) =========== The option is a 5 gallon home depot buckets with lids.

Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 75387959 United States 09/23/2017 01:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | They sell plastic tanks that fit in a bathtub and it hold 125 gal. newer potty only take 3 gal.to flush. Quoting: Amazng1 I would suggest that the newer potties are not a good idea. I believe we will be doing multiple deposits then flushing and a stronger flush will be desirable. Three gallons is a lot of water to come up with for each time. For a couple you might have to limit to 3 flushes every two days. |

Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 75387959 United States 09/23/2017 05:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | THIS issue has been worked probably a quintillion times in the history of man. France invented the Latrine. Quoting: anonymous coward 60819577 In Marlboro England near Stonehenge I was in a pub. One room was solid stone small blocks floor, walls and ceiling. A gutter had been added around the edge and tile up the wall to about 4 feet above the gutter drain. One just went in and pee'd anywhere as long as you were against the wall. There was no flush, other than an occasional bucket of dish water. ====== In this case pee'ing out your little brothers bedroom window has worked before, why not now? One may find themselves dumping crap in the same spot. Would cut back on break-ins, too. |

DO YOU HAVE THE CHEMICALS TO PROMOTE DECOMP AND REDUCE ODOR? The trouble with the world is we've lost touch with nature. First off OP - if you add water to your shit, that creates a shitty watery mess which is called 'leachate' - which is highly toxic and STINKS! So to reduce smell - dont add water. Have a dry toilet for feces. Wood ash/ leaf litter / sawdust can be used to cover the feces which puts off flies and other airborne stuff from laying eggs on it. The wood ash etc also helps to stop the smell. If you have a box chamber with a toilet seat on top you can shit into that chamber for years, it will not smell, it will be breaking down and composting constantly. JUST DONT ADD WATER OTHERWISE IT'LL STINK!! A family of 4 can poop into that chamber for years - it's amazing how shit breaks down to almost nothing. Same with food scraps - i compost around 4 tonnes of scraps and probably get around 8 wheelbarrows of nutritious soil when it's all broken down. For pee - well there's lots of options. But in your scenario of being contained inside due to radiation?...(lets hope not eh!) .... i would have a pipe installed in the building that goes out buried (enough) underground and use it like a septic tank soak-away. You would need to be in a place with decent percolation - which is most places except very boggy peat land. It's amazing how soil will soak up urine and there will be no smell either as the microbes in the soil digest the uric acid. Also being starved of oxygen helps it not to smell. Pee is useful to keep on hand for emergencies (wink wink!) These methods work as i already use them. It saves on water, cost of water and sewerage bills (which i dont personally have now but used to). When the radiation zone becomes safe again, you'll have plenty of nutritious soil to start innoculating the soil with bacterial life after radiation death! |

Too much work being confined and then going crazy in the house.. I'm not going to live my life worrying about my poop... I would just die. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 8671120 Yeah, me too in all honesty. There are means and ways to try to survive , but some things, like radiation, which can be years of toxicity to deal with (which would kill us slowly anyway) would just destroy too much on this planet - i'd certainly check out, without a doubt. |
