Mobile Toilet with Facilities
A mobile toilet is a facility that can be moved as a whole and placed at fixed or temporary locations to provide toilet services for the public and customers.
Composition and Classification
Mobile toilets generally consist of fecal sewage storage tanks (or fecal sewage treatment devices), floor slabs, sanitary ware, walls, washing equipment, water tanks, roofs, and mobile devices. According to their structural forms, they can be divided into single-structure mobile toilets and composite-structure mobile toilets. Based on their mobility methods, they can be classified as hoisting and handling mobile toilets, and powered and towed mobile toilets. In terms of sewage treatment methods, they can be categorized as water-flushing and waterless suction mobile toilets, circulating water-flushing mobile toilets, and dry-packing mobile toilets.
Development History
Mobile toilets were initially made of materials such as wood, with simple structures and functions, and were prone to absorbing odors. Later, they gradually evolved to use materials such as fiberglass and polyethylene, which significantly improved their durability and odor resistance.
Advantages
They have the advantages of being movable, combinable, and easy to transport. They can be conveniently transported to any location where toilets are needed and can be used repeatedly, greatly enhancing their flexibility and cost-effectiveness.
Applicable Locations
They are suitable for stations, docks, tourist attractions, villa areas, newly built residential areas, large construction sites, squares, densely populated public places, and bustling commercial streets. For example, in 2023, mobile toilets were gradually installed and put into use in the scenic area along the Yellow River in Lanzhou.
Rental Services
Some companies offer mobile toilet rental services, such as Shanghai Xuhu Industrial Co., Ltd., which has a stock of over 500 mobile toilets. It has undertaken toilet services for major projects such as the 10th Miss Tourism World Competition and the China Athletics Association Golden Grand Prix, and is suitable for various temporary locations such as exhibitions, sports fields, construction sites, and docks.
Mobile Environmental Protection Public Toilets
These are public sanitation facilities designed based on new materials and water-saving technologies. By automatically collecting hand-washing water and adding special agents, they achieve a flushing effect with only 0.46 liters of water per person. Their frames are welded from national standard steel, and their surfaces are covered with anti-corrosion and fire-resistant materials such as color-coated steel plates or carved panels, with a service life of over 20 years. Internally, they are equipped with independent toilet pit partition treatment systems. The urine channels use gravity flow, while the fecal channels are cleaned by piston-type scraper mechanical devices. They are also equipped with non-slip floors, automatic flushing toilet bowls, and ventilation and lighting systems, complying with the GBLT18091-92 standard.
