Gansu Yuquan Mobile Toilet
The application of mobile toilets in the Yuquan area of Gansu focuses on alleviating public toilet pressure, relying on provincial industrial resources for efficient management, and showing trends of intelligence and environmental protection.
I. Typical Application Scenarios of Mobile Toilets in Yuquan District
As a core tourist area in Lanzhou City, Yuquan District has added two mobile toilets around Dazhao Square, mainly serving the increased toilet needs of tourists during holidays. These toilets are cleaned regularly by full-time cleaning staff and are linked with the scenic spot service center to monitor tourist flow. Services are optimized through measures such as dynamically adjusting opening hours and adding temporary signs. For example, during the peak tourist season, the opening hours of the toilets are extended to nighttime, and emergency lighting and guidance systems are equipped to ensure convenience for tourists.
II. Technological Support and Resource Distribution of the Mobile Toilet Industry in Gansu
The mobile toilet industry in Gansu has achieved large-scale development, with dozens of related enterprises across the province. Their products cover environmentally friendly and intelligent types, and are concentrated in tourist cities and key scenic spots such as Lanzhou, Tianshui, and Dunhuang. Technologically, some products adopt solar power supply systems, water-saving flushing designs (reducing water consumption per flush by more than 60% compared to traditional toilets), microbial degradation technology (no need for water flushing, with excretion decomposed by bacterial colonies), and intelligent sensing functions (automatic door opening/closing, flushing, and deodorization), meeting low-carbon and environmental protection requirements. For example, the intelligent mobile toilets used in the Mogao Grottoes scenic spot in Dunhuang monitor usage frequency in real-time through IoT technology and automatically trigger cleaning procedures.
III. Collaborative Model between Yuquan District and the Provincial Industry
Although Yuquan District has not independently established mobile toilet production enterprises, it meets its needs by sharing provincial industrial resources. For example, the mobile toilets it purchases may come from enterprises in Lanzhou or Dunhuang, which have the ability to customize production and can adjust designs according to the terrain and tourist flow characteristics of scenic spots in Yuquan District (such as adding anti-slip floors and barrier-free access). In addition, the Gansu Mobile Toilet Wholesale Market (such as the Baidu Aicai Platform) provides a list of suppliers, and the environmental sanitation department of Yuquan District can select cooperative enterprises through online price comparison and on-site inspections.
IV. Expansion of Diversified Application Scenarios for Mobile Toilets
In addition to scenic spots, mobile toilets in Gansu are also widely used in large-scale outdoor activities (such as marathons), construction sites, temporary exhibitions, and the renovation of old urban residential areas. For example, during the renovation of an old residential area in Lanzhou, mobile toilets were deployed to solve the temporary toilet needs of residents, avoiding the problems of long construction periods and high costs associated with traditional toilets.
