VAULTS
Toilet Tech's waste management systems do an amazing job of minimizing the volume of waste that is collected. There are two types of solid waste storage vaults - the Decompose Vault (DCV) and the Waste Away Vault/Enclosure. Each is designed for its respective waste management system and both are lightweight, cost-effective, concrete-free, and made of durable materials.
DECOMPOSE VAULT (DCV)
The Decompose Vault (DCV) is used with the Decompose Toilet system. It is an open-bottom vault made of prefab fiberglass (FRP) materials. FRP is an extremely cost-effective solution for remote locations where concrete ingredients, mixing and pouring are challenging and laborious.
Solid waste in the DCV is consumed by native soil invertebrates and bacteria. The open-bottom soil contact surface performs similarly to a conventional septic field where infiltrators or pipe places waste in contact with active and aerobic soil for treatment. An important distinction and advantage of the TTS toilet is that it is waterless, and there is virtually no effluent leaving the vault, whereas conventional septic systems discharge hundreds of liters of waste water per day to the soil.
