Gansu Biodegradable Mobile Toilet
The Gansu biodegradable mobile toilet is a mobile sanitation facility that takes microbial degradation technology as its core, combines modular design with environmentally friendly energy supply, and enables on-site treatment and resource utilization of excreta.

Technical Principles and Treatment Efficiency
The core technology of biodegradable mobile toilets in Gansu is microbial degradation. By adding specific strains to the treatment unit, the decomposition of organic matter is accelerated. Its 24-hour treatment capacity and reduction rate can reach over 90%. The final products comply with the GB/T 18092-2008 'Waterless Flush Sanitary Toilets' standard and can be directly used for soil improvement or safe discharge. The treatment systems are divided into three types:
- Waterless Packaging Type: It uses biodegradable films to seal excreta, preventing odor diffusion. It requires no water resources and is suitable for water-scarce areas.
- Microbial Degradation Type: It relies on the activity of strains to decompose organic matter. Regular supplementation of microbial agents is required to maintain efficiency, and the treatment process is pollution-free.
- Physical Separation Type: It reduces the volume of waste through solid-liquid separation technology and combines sealed packaging to prevent secondary pollution.
Modular Design and Environmental Adaptability
The toilet adopts a modular assembly structure with an independent box as the main body, integrating water supply and drainage, ventilation, and other modules. It supports horizontal installation on complex terrains such as slopes. The material selection focuses on weather resistance: the exterior walls use metal carved panels or fiberglass-reinforced plastic panels, which are corrosion-resistant and UV-resistant; the interior partitions use antibacterial composite materials to inhibit microbial growth. In response to the climatic characteristics of different regions in Gansu, the design is further optimized:
- Along the Hexi Corridor: The ventilation modules are equipped with filtration devices to reduce sand and dust intrusion.
- In the Longnan Mountainous Area: The material formulations and sealing processes are adjusted to improve mold resistance and adapt to high-humidity environments.
Energy Supply and Additional Functions
The energy system mainly uses solar photovoltaic panels, and some facilities combine small wind turbines to form a wind-solar hybrid system. The energy storage units mostly use lithium battery packs to ensure continuous operation under conditions without sunlight. Some facilities in tourist areas also integrate additional modules such as simple shower compartments and emergency call buttons, adopting a plug-in design that does not affect the stability of the main structure.
Market Application and Development
Due to the demand for tourism development in the northwest region, the market growth rate of microbial degradation mobile toilets is higher than the national average. Local enterprises such as Lanzhou Jintongchuang Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd., with a complete production line and design team, have advantages in customized installation and after-sales maintenance, promoting the popularization of technology and regional adaptability improvements.
