The Solaris Toilet utilizes dry flush technology. A piston transports move contents of the toilet into a sealed, external, waste tank. This also means there is no manual waste removal involved as a standard black water hose is used to empty the contents of the external waste tank.
The Solaris Toilet has only one moving part, the piston, ensuring a high degree of reliability.
No plumbing connections are required, as the Solaris Toilet has been designed to transport waste directly into the 250 gallon external waste tank. A septic tank or sewer connection is not used.
Low power usage, at 20W, makes the Solaris Toilet off-grid capable with a simple solar panel connection to a 12V battery.
A foot pedal is used to trigger the "dry flush" cycle instead of a handle or button that is touched by the hands of multiple people.
The Solaris Toilet can work in below freezing temperatures without concern for freeze damage.
The waste tank can be emptied, and disconnected from the toilet for movement to a new location. The toilet can be separated into three parts by undoing a few bolts and can also be packed up for shipment to a new location where it will be re-connected to its external waste tank. This is a useful feature for disaster relief organizations, refugee camps, and military bases.
The mechanical operation of the Solaris Toilet is virtually silent. The small “whirring” noise that it makes averages 40 decibels less than that of a typical water flush toilet.
The main parts of the toilet and waste pipe are made from high quality aluminum. Other parts are made from stainless steel. The piston is made from High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) plastic. As a result, the toilet, waste pipe, and tank are extremely durable and long lasting.
