Mobile Special Toilet
A mobile special toilet is a facility that can be moved as a whole and provides toilet services to the public. It is suitable for various places and comes in multiple types with distinct features.
Suitable Locations
Mobile special toilets are suitable for stations, docks, tourist attractions, villa areas, newly-built residential communities, large construction sites, squares, densely populated public places, and bustling commercial streets. These locations often face challenges such as difficulties in constructing fixed public toilets, high foot traffic, and concentrated toilet demands. Mobile special toilets can be flexibly deployed to effectively meet people's toilet needs. For example, in 2023, mobile toilets were gradually installed and put into use in the scenic area along the Yellow River in Lanzhou, making up for the insufficient number and unreasonable layout of local public toilets.
Composition Structure
Generally, they consist of a fecal sewage storage tank (or fecal sewage treatment device), floor slabs, sanitary ware, walls, washing equipment, water tanks, roofs, and mobile devices. These components work together to ensure that the mobile toilet can function normally and provide users with a relatively comfortable and hygienic toilet environment.
Development History and Materials
Initially, mobile toilets were made of materials like wood, with simple structures and functions, and were prone to absorbing odors. Later, they gradually evolved to use materials such as fiberglass-reinforced plastic and polyethylene, which offer better durability, water resistance, and odor resistance, enhancing the user experience and service life of mobile toilets.
Classification Methods
- By structural form: They can be divided into single-structure mobile toilets and composite-structure mobile toilets.
- By mobility method: They can be classified as lifting and handling mobile toilets, and powered and towed mobile toilets.
- By sewage treatment method: They are categorized into flush and non-flush suction-type mobile toilets, circulating flush mobile toilets, and dry-packing mobile toilets.
Features and Advantages
They can be conveniently transported to any location where a toilet needs to be set up and can be used repeatedly. They offer advantages such as mobility, modularity, and ease of transportation. Additionally, there are some unique mobile toilets, such as Apple Pod mobile toilets, which can be divided into male and female sections and can be customized according to customer needs. For example, a customer in Anhui customized an Apple Pod mobile toilet for his scenic area, with twenty male stalls. The front wall was made of Great Wall panels, and one side was made of sheet metal sprayed with real stone paint, giving it a high-quality feel.
