A wastewater management system 10 includes a black water tank 12 for holding black wastewater and a grey water tank 14 for holding grey wastewater. The system 10 may additionally include a filter 62 for filtering suspended solids from the grey water; a first conduit 64 between the grey water tank 14 and the filter 62; a second conduit 66 between the filter 62 and a toilet 22, and a third conduit 68 between the filter 68 and the black water tank 12, the third conduit 68 associated with a valve 26; and a fourth conduit 69 between the filter 62 and the grey water tank 14, the fourth conduit 69 associated with the valve 26. The system 10 further includes a control sub-system 38 in communication with the valves 26 for controlling valves 26 to deliver filtered grey water to the toilet 22 for flush and to periodically clean the filter 62 of captured solids and deliver the captured solids to the black water tank 12. A related method for managing wastewater within a recreational vehicles with the wastewater management system 10, an apparatus for delivering wastewater from a recreational vehicles to a drain and an additive sub-system 54 for wastewater management system of a vehicle are also provided. Further, the present teachings relate to a system 10 including a housing associated with a toilet 22, the housing including a valve and a macerator pumping arrangement 34 including a macerator 34a and a pump 34b that work independently from one another, the macerator 34a including a plurality of macerating knives 37 driven by a first motor 35a, the pump 34b providing positive pressure, the macerator pumping arrangement 34 is operative in a macerating mode and a pumping mode, such that the first motor 35a first drives the macerating knives 37 to macerate the waste and subsequently, the pump 34b pumps the waste out of the housing 34a.

A water turbine and electric motor hybrid power suction type water-saving toilet, with toilet main body comprising a hollow frame, a hollow frame water inlet, a basin bottom water injection hole and an S-shaped bend, wherein the hollow frame is located on upper part of the toilet with water injection holes distributed along the periphery towards inner side of the toilet; the hollow frame water inlet is formed in rear part of the toilet; the basin bottom water injection hole is formed in lower part of the toilet and communicates with the hollow frame water inlet through a pipe cavity attached to outer wall of the toilet; and a basin bottom water injection valve is arranged at the opening of the basin bottom water injection hole leading to the S-shaped bend and controls connection/disconnection of basin bottom water injection hole and S-shaped bend inlet section with water pumping process synchronously.

An improvement kit for heavy duty grinders to process thick wastes in commercial and residential applications made of a two directional cutter having a two-blade cutter edge, a multi aperture die cup, a shaft for pump with an anti-rotational feature, a mimicking component for mimicking three phase drive to a motor stator on the pump, a control board/panel and circuitry and wiring to interconnect the components and a stator winding that allows the kit to provide a grinding solution for contamination including common household trash, a contraband material used in methamphetamine and opioid addictions, a fibrous product including wet wipes with nylon products, and heavy materials that can cause a typical grinding system to be “jetted” which requires continual maintenance and costly repairs.

A waste collection and disposal unit including a tank, a float-switch sensing system, and a grinder pump. The tank contains a contoured and sloping floor, a front section, a back section, two side sections and a one-piece lid, which is securable onto the other sections of the tank. The floor slopes downwardly from below the float-switch sensing system to below the grinder pump at an angle of at least about 5 degrees and is contoured in a downward curved arc between the front and back sections of the tank.

A waterless urinal cartridge, for waterless urinals, includes a housing and a cover. The housing includes a waste reservoir configured to hold a predetermined volume of wastewater, and a drainage aperture configured so that an amount of wastewater exceeding the predetermined volume of wastewater flows through the drainage aperture to exit the housing. The cover is coupled to the housing and includes a sealing fluid reservoir having walls that define the waste reservoir and the drainage aperture, the walls of the sealing fluid reservoir form a containment perimeter with an open bottom so as to contain a sealing fluid floating on top of the predetermined volume of wastewater, and a plurality of fluid passages direct wastewater from the fluid bowl to the sealing fluid reservoir. The waste reservoir includes a fluid flow control feature that restrains wastewater movement within the waste reservoir in response to a change in vehicle dynamics.

The invention relates to a device for the on-site analysis of excrements, comprising a housing, a removal device, by means of which a sample of excrement can be removed, in which the removal device comprises an arm element for a sample carrier, which is movable relative to the housing in the axial movement direction, said arm element being guided at least partially in a guide part in such a way that it can be retracted and extended, a feeding device which supports a new sample carrier for the removal device, and an analysis device which at least partially analyzes the sample, wherein the device is characterized in that the guide part comprises a contamination region with a guide path for guiding the moveable arm element, and also a clean region, in which a new sample carrier can be arranged at least partially next to the guide path.
