Indeed, a gas fired toilet is an incinerator. There is a small family owned winery near me that opened a tasting and sales room a couple of years ago. It's a small beautifully crafted wooden building with a stone fireplace and a place to enjoy your wine and crackers. Since it is a commercial business serving the public it needs rest rooms. The problem was the cost of putting in a commercial sized septic system. The county zoning and permitting officials worked with the owners and allowed a incinerator type toilet. It's European import that uses propane. After each use it fires and vaporizes the fluids. The solids turn to ash and are deposed of in the landfill trash. It was a costly installation but much, much less expensive than a complete septic system.

That's interesting Yanche!

Here's a model made by a Canadian company: http://www.propaneproducts.com/catalog/propane-to ... t-377.html

$ 4,000.00 is a little steep for a toilet but it could make sense for many different applications.

I know corn kernels don't digest in the intestines, once they hit the incenerator, do you add salt , butter and watch a movie toothy :flush:

HAHAHAHAHAH

I understand, I got the melting tools at a garage sale once. There was a burner fixture that mounted on the old style propane 30lb. tank. It had a place to rest a small iron ladle with a long handle. It holds about a cup. I have melted lead for chess piece molds with it. It came with some spoon-like tools to jam the oakum into the joint. They have clamp devices to hold in the lead if you're doing horizontal joints too. I guess you layer lead, oakum,lead, oakum, lead. I'm sure a plumber here would know. I worked at a house very close to the ocean, and the pvc closet flange steel part would rust out! The salt air penetrated everything down there.
Also cast iron dampens sound very well.

Ya wanta feel confident when ya drop friends off at the pool :lol:

There was an episode of Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe, he was up in Alaska, they had a poop incinerator made out of an oil burner and a 55 gallon drum. :shock:

Yeah those are a big hit with the yuppie liberals that infect this state. :lol:

They also use those *censored* burners on commercial fishing boats. Suppose it's better than letting it go raw into Boston Harbor, like everyone has done for 400+ years. :funny:
