Rural Mobile Toilet Septic Tank
The installation, product types, and policy highlights of rural mobile toilet septic tanks are as follows:

Installation: The installation of an integrated three-compartment plastic septic tank must strictly follow standardized procedures. First, measure and mark the selected location. The excavation dimensions should meet the requirements of 1.5 meters in width, 2.4 meters in length, and a minimum depth of 1.2 meters, with the depth not being less than 1.2 meters. The excavation size and depth should be slightly larger than the external dimensions of the septic tank body. The pit bottom should be leveled and compacted, and a 10-centimeter-thick cement cushion should be laid for leveling, or hardened by laying a gravel layer or pouring a concrete foundation. The location should avoid drinking water sources, underground pipelines, parking spaces, and driving areas, not be too far from the toilet building, and preferably be downwind of the kitchen. After placing the septic tank in the excavation, ensure it is level. When connecting the inlet and outlet pipes and the over-flow pipes, install sealing gaskets to prevent leakage, and also seal the external and internal connections. During backfilling, compact the soil in layers. After restoring the ground to a level state, install the配套 (matching) exhaust facilities and inspection wells. Finally, conduct an initial leakage test by filling with water. Only after confirming no leakage can it be officially put into use. The cleaning cycle is generally about one year.
Product types and prices: Common products on the market include:
- Large three-compartment ox tendon household finished septic tank: Suitable for decentralized treatment of toilets in new rural areas, priced at 4.75 yuan (with 20 units sold per month). However, note that its capacity may be relatively small, and selection should be based on actual needs.
- 1/2/3 cubic three-compartment PE plastic finished septic tank: Priced at 3316.0 yuan (with 13 units sold per month), with flexible capacity options, suitable for household or small public toilet use.
- Buried double-urn/triple-urn septic buckets: Priced at 156.75 yuan, with a simple structure, suitable for dry toilet renovation or areas with limited resources. When purchasing, comprehensively evaluate the capacity and material durability based on the number of family members, usage frequency, and budget.
Policy aspects: The toilet renovation project in the rural "two renovations and three connections" project clearly requires the transformation of old dry toilets into water-flush sanitary toilets with three-compartment septic tanks to address issues such as mosquito and fly breeding and groundwater pollution. Renovation should follow the principle of voluntariness. Farmers need to apply to the village committee first. After passing the inspection, financial subsidies will be directly paid to households through the "one-card pass" system. Disadvantaged groups can enjoy full coverage policies. Unauthorized renovation may not be eligible for subsidies, and the process must be strictly followed.
