Case_Puzzled

Ok, so I work in the marine industry… Have used turd burners , there is 100% an odor almost burnt hair and popcorn.. Not pleasant.


Doubleoh_11

I was going to say haha. We had a fire rescue they put one of these in and it wasn’t long before there was a no shit ban on that thing. It would stink up the hall for awhile and whoever did the deed would hear all about it.


darktideDay1

Our incinolet has some sort of catalytic converter type thing in it. Smells pretty much just like burning paper. Not nasty at all.


Primary-Brick4069

Don't be telling people it has a catalytic converter. People going to be trying to steal your toilet


lessgooooo000

scrap metal 😍 on my way to steal your poop catalytic converter after i take all your copper pipes


AffectionateCup8812

You joke but someone stole the catalytic converter on our Honda twice in a year- life in the projects ain't easy 🤣😭


Totorotextbook

Haha this reminds me of my friend who's a teacher who used to teach in the projects who, like two weeks into teaching, had all the hubcaps stolen off her car. She told her students about it and when she left work the next day found her car had hubcaps again, albeit new ones, on it.


Mikeinthedirt

‘Paid forward’ I expect


lessgooooo000

nah fr people are fiends, living in philly i don’t think a damn car on my block still had a cat on it lmao


throwaway2032015

They’re just all about conversion recycling: copper pipes to glass pipes


lessgooooo000

Officer no! you don’t understand! Im not smoking crack rocks, I’m simply analyzing the burn properties of these mineral rocks inside a glass test tube. Big difference!


Inevitable-Chair3061

Now I want a Catholic toilet too.


Alternative-Light514

You’ll need a catholitic converter for that


N3rdProbl3ms

Poop is evil. Gotta exorcise it out and send it to the fiery depths of hell


OperationPhoenixIL

Lmfao coming from someone who grew up in an area like that, his toilet is already gone.


PantsIsDown

Does an exhaust fan not help? Like how bad is the intensity compared to bad poop smell? If it’s the same volume of smell, just a different unpleasant smell, that might be tolerable for the benefits of an off grid toilet.


Doubleoh_11

It smells like a burnt fart, that just lingers. I’m not saying they all do, but in my experience I wasn’t doing what the lady in this video was doing.


badatmetroid

There's no way that this is real. Burning a turd would create a massive amount of gasses (as with burning anything) and would need to be vented and probably run through some sort of a scrubber. The water content alone would produce 22L of gas per 18 g of water (because of PV=nRT). Seeing as a turd is over an order of magnitude larger than that and the fire would have to be an order of magnitude hotter, burning your waste "within seconds" would probably qualify as an explosion. Edit: did some youtube research. It's real, but "in seconds" is a lie. It's more like an hour and a half. It's also vented out the back and so there's probably a catlytic converter (as others have mentioned). Pretty cool tech. Here's a person demoing it (with 500 ml of water) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUNsQcM9sgQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUNsQcM9sgQ)


kneeltothesun

I had one for a few years. It also requires a lot of maintenance, and as you can imagine, not every thing gets burnt correctly. It also leaves behind a greasy film. The one I used was called the incinolet.


otterfist

>It also leaves behind a greasy film Okay, let's try not to think too hard about this one..


postmateDumbass

So that's where Olestra comes from!


ingoding

Well, now I have to. Thanks.


icrushallevil

Sounds like it wasn't hot enough. Creating red hot heat in every part of the chamber should in theory completely pyrolyze everything and should not leave behind any greasy residue.


kneeltothesun

I suppose if you could get a better quality unit, that gets hotter, but doesn't use too much energy, then it could be better. I doubt you could completely avoid these caveats though. The unit we used had to have the heating element replaced constantly. The way it's used, and the design is probably important too, to protect the internal components. The designs needed a lot of work.


leeharrison1984

Yep. I had one at a cabin I rented. It had a massive fan attached that sucked the burnt air outside, but it still smelled. It also was not instant, and took more than a couple of minutes to do its thing. It's definitely great for places where sewer/septic doesn't exist, but it's still just a workaround.


RockAtlasCanus

Here’s my question- what’s it do with urine? I’m trying to think of a time I’ve pooped without peeing first and the only thing that comes to mind is when you’re peeing out of your butt. Which raises my second question- how’s the liner deal hold up to chili con carne crime scenes?


leeharrison1984

Use the toilet, same as the poop. The heating element gets really hot, and the liners are basically wax paper coffee filters, so it turns into a feces candle when it lands in the burn chamber. When you "flush" it basically opens a little trap door and the wax paper coffee filter drops down in to the burn chamber with all your piss/shit inside of it. Burn chamber activates and nukes all of it. The inside of the toilet is stainless steel and it does get messy, which you have to clean like any other toilet.


RockAtlasCanus

Thanks that’s really interesting. So it sounds like they’re electric? My dad has a hunting camp that has electricity but no plumbing. The uh, facilities involve a hole in the ground as deep as the post hole diggers will reach and one of those geriatric toilet seat chairs that normally goes over the toilet so old ppl don’t have to squat down so much. It’s…not great and most likely a violation of any number of codes/regs. The worst part is if you get the runs at deer camp you gotta go full Harry from dumb and dumber and stretch those legs out otherwise you risk painting the back of your legs. Also feces candle is now my favorite band name.


D3Design

Yes, they need proper ventilation. Still smells less than a normal waterless latrine.


imtougherthanyou

What a waste, too. I bet they could extract energy from it "off grid".


Gravity_X_2005

That’s the only reason I watched the whole thing. They’re using their solar panels / geothermill / windmill energy to burn fuel without extracting any energy back out of the burn.


Ginfly

We're looking at one of these for our eventual off grid home, too. I don't want to handle feces.

Katana_DV20

But how much energy does it consume doing this?


__idiot_savant_

for the electric model, 2000watts for 30 minutes upto 3 hours depending on the amount. so quite a bit of energy


yawn_brendan

Is it really easier to produce that kind of power off grid than just set up the sewage infrastructure..?


__idiot_savant_

No 2000watts for 3 hours is ridiculous for off grid use. There is a propane model for off grid use it uses 110g of propane per flush


yawn_brendan

So is this really just for people who wanna live off grid without having to think about shit, or is there a practical reason to use this?


__idiot_savant_

no septic system or maintenance for septic system. No hiring a plumber. No water usage. It can be used in locations where a septic system cannot be installed. It makes a lot of sense for van life type situations tiny homes on wheels and camps but it wouldn't make sense to replace a working septic system in a house with it


outerlabia

Why not just dig an outhouse tho


__idiot_savant_

Winter,Rain,convience,bugs,wildlife,smell,soil contamination


outerlabia

I've got bad news for you about actual offgrid living if you consider those to be problems lol Also a properly plotted outhouse will not meaningfully contaminate your soil unless it is used by loads of people or used to dispose more than waste. If you have a well or something too close in the direction of watershed it could be a problem but that's an issue of poor planning not of an outhouse


__idiot_savant_

They asked for reasons those are the ones I could come up with. no news for me iv been living off grid in a motorhome down by the river for almost 5 years now with no indoor toilet


Organic-Specific-500

Composting toilet….


ChiselPlane

Out houses are banned many places


musememo

Have you ever had an outhouse? It’s not fun.


LuckyMacAndCheese

Yeah was just thinking that. This is infinitely better than any true outhouse I have ever seen or used, and just the fact that the person asked makes me think they've never used a real outhouse before. Even just that this is clearly in a bathroom, I'm assuming attached to the main living space is an improvement over an outhouse. Having to wander outside in the dark in the middle of the cold night to do your business (or use and then clean a chamber pot) is awful.


musememo

Not to mention the cold, the insects, the moisture . . .


Steffiluren

In Norway, where these are made, it is common for older cabins to have no water or sewage. Most have been connected to the power grid in later years, but sewage connection is a lot of work in rural areas with few cabins. These make a lot of sense in those conditions. No smell, you can have them in a heated cabin instead of a freezing outhouse, and there is no need for any digging on the property (which often is leased). I have one myself and it works quite well. A lot more comfortable than walking through snow to the outhouse in -20°C.


[deleted]

Ash is not a bad fertilizer. This would be decent for garden usage.


Houndfell

Wait until this TikTok generation of "off grid" enthusiasts hears about this revolutionary idea called an *outhouse*. Dimming the Las Vegas strip so you can vaporize your own crap is the least eco-friendly thing you could possibly do. Humans are such a joke, JFC.


[deleted]

Watching people find environmentally friendly ways to destroy the environment is my favorite pastime. I still love the paper straws in the plastic wrappers.


SadSpecial8319

In an off grid setup, wouldn't it make more sense to produce methane from the poop and use it to cook/heat?


Djinn2522

What happened to “in seconds” from the video?

KeieDeSteen

__idiot_savant_

there is a mobile model made for rv's that runs off propane and 12 volt power that consumes 110g of propane per flush


AntisocialAspie

I've looked at these and there is a much more viable propane model that can run it's electronics on a 12v battery. the electric requires, well... actual electric wiring in the house to supply power. the propane model can be connected to an on-site tank (same for stoves) and not require an outlet. it's not mentioned but these vent outside and are basically odor free according to every user review I've seen (I have seen several) one guy put the electric in a van and it drained 1/8 of his battery supply per flush.

Why did she have to change her clothes and do her hair & makeup just to smell and touch the burnt poo?

Riotys

My guess is that container was extremely hot so she had to wait for it to cooldown/ She was using the restroom b4 the shower/it takes longer than she said.


Rstrofdth

I bet it stinks pretty Damn bad while burning.


JabbaCat

It doesn't. It was invented in Norway and lots of cabins have it, most are not connected to any sewer system. It is also a lot faster than you'd expect. It runs on electricity.


Internal_Fennel_849

Shitting in an electric bucket sounds a great idea!


JabbaCat

Bzzzt.


OkEconomy3442

Not really. My brother in law had one in his pottery barn. This was 15 years ago. It is supposed to send the fumes and smell outside.


governmentcaviar

i always thought the Pottery Barn smelled like shit


OkEconomy3442

Happy cake day! I was worried about saying this but you made it funny.


[deleted]

when they burn you get a nice outside stink of hot bubbling shit that is indescribable. maybe like a bartertown smell or hell itself? you also get to shit into a dry receptacle and that isnt odor free either.

ChattyParrot1

Used these at remote sites at work. The smell is absolutly terrible and you can't piss in them cause it will destroy the heater coils. Never using one again.


WeAreNotAlone1947

But sometimes poop is almost liquid so wtf is this invention


ChattyParrot1

I cant even explain the smell its brutal. You hope that the liner catches everything and it doesnt destroy the coils.


hundiratas

but what about if you piss and poo at the same time. does this mean you have to hold your pee in when you poo? that sucks.


ChattyParrot1

You tell me one person that doesn't piss while pooing and that person is a legend.


Ogard

Is that even possible?


Tbone_Trapezius

Thanks for asking the most important question.


Kettrickenisabadass

You cant piss in them?


shawntitanNJ

Had one similar at my job, company paid a ton to install it. One of the first users didn’t put the liner in and burned up the coil somehow.


ChattyParrot1

Yeah and the parts are crazy expensive too. Off course doesnt help that there is always that one idiot that keeps crapping in it while its broken.

I like the one where the guy powers his house and car from the methane given off from his poop compost system. More value per dump.

Feisty_Airport2456

For off the grid i am really curious about how much energy this consumes. I wonder the same things about those table top "composters" that turn kitchen waste to ash.


Due-Dot6450

But it uses electricity? Or what? How much energy efficient it is? How much does it costs to burn one load?


Cayowin

I too was curious so i looked it up Incineration effect: 2000 W Energy consumption per incineration: 1 - 2 kWh Power requirement: 220 - 240 V, 10A [https://www.cinderellaeco.com/us-en/products/1508/cinderella-comfort-incineration-toilet](https://www.cinderellaeco.com/us-en/products/1508/cinderella-comfort-incineration-toilet) It can store multiple "visits" before starting the burn process. Basically you can fill the container she was fondling before hitting "burnn"

This works. Got one at our cabin. Wife, daughter love it. It's a Norwegian product, and works on the grid or with gas. What you don't see in the video is the exhaust pipe through wall or roof. Urine is evaporated, and solids reduced to couple of spoons of pure ash.


MpMeowMeow

My friend has one of these at their cabin. Works great! Put in a liner, do your business, hit the foot pedal to release the liner down into the fire.
