| 词条 | Incinerating toilet |
| 释义 |
An incinerating toilet is a type of dry toilet that burns human feces instead of flushing them away with water, like a flush toilet does.[1] Incinerating toilets are used only for niche applications. DescriptionIncinerating toilets may be powered by electric, gas, dried feces or other energy sources.[2][3] They are used in environments where human waste cannot be otherwise dumped, or where normal toilets are too expensive or cumbersome to install. Such toilets gather excrement in a holding tank and then incinerate it, reducing it to pathogen-free ash. Some will also incinerate grey and black water created from showers and sinks. ExamplesIn 2011 the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation launched the "Reinvent the Toilet Challenge" to promote safer, more effective ways to treat human excreta. Several research teams have received funding to work on developing toilets based on solid waste combustion.[4] For example, a toilet under development by RTI International is based on electrochemical disinfection and solid waste combustion.[5] This technology converts feces into burnable pieces and then uses thermoelectric devices to convert the thermal energy into electrical energy.{{citation needed|date=September 2017}} References1. ^ "Water Efficiency Technology Fact Sheet - Incinerating Toilets", EPA 832-F-99-072 (1999) 2. ^{{Cite web|url=http://envirocompostingtoilets.co.nz/|title=Enviro Composting Toilet Systems NZ|website=Enviro Composting Toilet Systems NZ|language=en-US|access-date=2016-11-28}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.cinderellaeco.no/|title=Cinderella Forbrenningstoalett - Forsiden|website=www.cinderellaeco.no|access-date=2016-11-28}} 4. ^Elisabeth von Muench, Dorothee Spuhler, Trevor Surridge, Nelson Ekane, Kim Andersson, Emine Goekce Fidan, Arno Rosemarin (2013) Sustainable Sanitation Alliance members take a closer look at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation’s sanitation grants, Sustainable Sanitation Practice Journal, Issue 17, p. 4-10 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://abettertoilet.org/toilet-technologies/ |title=Archived copy |accessdate=March 17, 2014 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140317082223/http://abettertoilet.org/toilet-technologies/ |archivedate=March 17, 2014 }} RTI Reinvent the Toilet Project Team - Technology Overview External links{{commonscat}}
