Two-chamber Composting

  • Relatively large footprint (32"high x 23" wide).

  • Does not use urine diversion. After urine comes in contact with feces, it drains into a chamber with a 2.4 amp heating element to dehydrate pathogenic leachate discharge.

  • Uses a two-chamber system (rotating drum and finishing drawer)

  • Uses a rotating drum technology to accelerate aerobic composting.

  • Relatively large rotating drum with a gear system for turning.

  • Relatively small (4-gallon) finishing chamber.

  • To repair would require specialized parts from the manufacturer.

  • $1500+

single-chamber Composting

  • Relatively small footprint (20" high x 19" wide).
  • Uses urine diversion with collection into a 2.2-gallon container which is removed by opening the top of the unit (which exposes the solid waste chamber).
  • Uses a spinning auger technology to accelerate aerobic composting.
  • Uses a single-chamber with 7-gallon total solid waste capacity. When emptying, both fresh waste and composted material are mixed together.
  • Custom seat molded into the system - no option to use an off-the-shelf toilet seat. 
  • To repair would require specialized parts from the manufacturer.
  • $900+
