[Greenbuilding] [BULK] Composting toilets

[Kat]

So, if I'm understanding this correctly, this system really *won't* work in a city (on a lot with a yard) because I think the 
city would get a bit PEEved (please excuse that one)  if everyone peed outside all the time (especially if it always went to 
one spot - pew).  Not to mention I don't want the neighbors staring at my bare bottom.

We separate some of our urine, but we don't save the urine--it goes out
through a floor drain with our graywater or just out into the forest.  I
have another home-devised system for that.  I bought another seat from
Cabela's (shipping is the same for 3 seats as it is for 1) and took
another 5-gallon bucket and cut the bottom out of it.  I set it over the
floor drain and use it to urinate, putting the toilet paper into the
bucket composter.  However, I'm the only person in our 4-person
household who does this....my husband urinates outdoors. My 2 daughters
both use the compost bucket for both urine and feces.  Excessive urine
does seem to make the bucket smell more than a dryer compost would,
which is why I use the graywater drain.
