chemical toilet
Self-contained waste receptacle
A chemical toilet is a portable toilet that uses chemicals rather than water to break down waste and control odors.
Common at construction sites, outdoor events, and campgrounds where plumbing isn't available.
The chemicals typically include deodorizers and biocides that help sanitize the holding tank between servicing.
