Now imagine eight people using that toilet every day all year long. Imagine that household is in a city of 200,000. All that poo is never going to compost fast enough. This new type of toilet is for high usage and high adoption rates. It could turn a total cesspool of a city into something clean. A composting toilet in every home in the same scenario would just result in mountains of barely degraded poo at the end of every street.
