Traditional Mobile Toilet

Traditional mobile toilets are composed of fecal sewage storage tanks, floor slabs, sanitary ware, walls, washing equipment, water tanks, roofs, mobile devices, etc. They come in various structural forms, mobility methods, and sewage treatment methods, and have certain issues in operation and maintenance as well as user experience.

In terms of constituent materials, traditional 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 improved the performance of the toilets to some extent.

Regarding structural forms, they can be divided into single-structure mobile toilets and composite-structure mobile toilets. Single-structure toilets are relatively independent and suitable for places with limited space or high flexibility requirements; composite-structure toilets may combine multiple functions or designs to meet more complex usage needs.

In terms of mobility methods, there are lifting and handling mobile toilets, which usually require external equipment for movement and are suitable for scenarios that require frequent relocation; powered and towed mobile toilets have their own power or can be towed for movement, making them more convenient to move.

From the perspective of sewage treatment methods, they are classified into flush and non-flush suction-type mobile toilets, circulating flush-type mobile toilets, and dry-packing mobile toilets. Flush-type toilets can clean the toilets well but require a sufficient water supply; non-flush suction-type toilets treat fecal sewage through suction; circulating flush-type toilets can achieve water resource recycling; dry-packing toilets pack the feces for treatment without the need for water.

However, traditional mobile toilets have high operation and maintenance costs. Some old mobile toilets require dedicated personnel for daily flushing and septic tank cleaning, and odor control relies on manual spraying, which is inefficient and leads to many complaints. In terms of user experience, traditional dry toilets have a pungent odor and poor sanitary conditions; although ordinary mobile toilets have seen some improvements, the odor in summer is still difficult to avoid, which gives users a bad experience.
