chemical toilets
Portable waste receptacles
Chemical toilets are portable toilets that use chemicals rather than water and plumbing to manage waste.
The chemicals break down solids and control odor.
They appear at construction sites, outdoor events, campgrounds, and anywhere permanent facilities aren't available: A row of chemical toilets lined the edge of the festival grounds.
