38 Sanitation and Cleanliness for a Healthy Environment
All 3 have a base made of concrete,
brick, or any other waterproof
material with these parts:
3 ways to build a dry toilet
2 small doors
2 chambers
a vent pipe
hole for vent pipe
a hole on each side
or in the front for the
urine‑diverting hose to
run out of the chamber
Types of toilets
For squatting
Building the base
How the urine is separated
For sitting,
with a bench
Leave a space in the dividing
wall for a urine-separating
container to serve both
chambers.
Cut the bottom off a 20 liter jug. Attach
it, upside-down, to the space in the wall
dividing both chambers. Attach a tube
to the spout to divert urine, making
sure there are no leaks between the jug
and the tube. Put a fine mesh screen in
the jug to keep feces and other things
from falling in.
Build the back of the
base up to make a bench
across both chambers.
Cut the bottom and side from a plastic jug.
Attach a tube to the spout to divert urine. Put
a fine mesh screen in the jug to keep feces
and other things from falling in.
For sitting, with
a toilet bowl
Cover the base with a level
platform of wood or concrete with
a hole over each chamber.
Urine-diverting toilet bowls can be built
or bought in some places. If they are
available, they are very easy to install
and use.
