ABSTRACT:
A toilet has a soil holding tank which does not require connection to external soil disposal facilities. The toilet may be of a fresh water flush type, in which case the soil is contained within a flexible bag inside the tank, and the fresh water surrounds the bag. As the volume of soil in the flexible bag within the holding tank increases, so the volume of flushing water surrounding the bag decreases. Alternatively, the toilet may be of a recirculating type in which case the drum contains a filter through which flushing water is drawn from the tank. When the flushing water is used up and/or the tank is full of soil, the holding tank is sealed and removed from the toilet to be replaced by a recharged holding tank. In another alternative the toilet has no flushing facilities, and when the tank is full of soil, it is sealed, removed from the toilet and replaced by an empty tank.
