Blue in the loo?

Still hoping a lady or two might have a device they could recommend as in this department blokes are clueless, some of us can't even use the tackle we have already.
 
No good trev, it doesn't store the wee, she could use it to wee into a bottle but we want an all-in-one solution.

The Bigger / Adult Whizzer (500ml)

It's finally here... well nearly! The bigger Whizzer is the top request I get - mainly from Mum's who discover the kids one doesn't quite hold the capacity they also need in a hurry. So everyone from keen campers and fun festival goers to truck drivers and the older generation have been excited...

Not into the shops yet, but looks promising.

Found one on Amazon, so I ordered, she can look at it and it can go back if she's not keen.
 
Don't be so course Trev.

We use Formyl Bio. Keeps everything clean and smelling sweet and cheap enough to discard every couple of days or so.
However, if I were building a van, and starting from scratch, I would definitely think seriously about a composting toilet.
Plenty of videos about the subject on Youtube, and just the fact that you only empty every two or three months has to be totally workable, especially for those of us that like to disappear for months at a time.

In organic chemistry A formyl joined with a hydrocarbon side chain I believes gives formaldehyde (embalming fluid!)
The presence of this chemical in some of the ’blue’ liquids is why many campsites ask for green only as this is not septic friendly.
 
Annies suggestion arrived just now.

it claims 1.2l capacity, I have an accurate just and that would be pushing it, design flaw is it won't stand upright, and there isn't a rubber seal just the type you get on a jar, it didn't leak when half full and shaken vigorously so it might just be the very thing, we may become cassetteless if Liz takes to it.

After reading notes on a few sites that are registered with CAMPRA (Campaign for real Aires) there are getting more Aire types sites throughout the UK which is a good thing. I notice that a good few of them state they are on septic tanks and request no use of blue chemicals in the black waste system.
I have been told by a pal that the use of clothes washing products instead of the blue additive is ok, if this is ok does any one know which one is best to use eg, Bio , non Bio, powder or tablets and how much to use. I know there are eco friendly green liquids on the market that are acceptable to use in sceptic tanks but being a tight Yorkshire man in this economic disastrous era we find ourselves in every penny saved helps.

Going back to the OP question, I can fully understand sites requesting people use the correct additives for the septic tanks fitted at their sites.

When we lived in France running our 2 camping a la ferme sites, just like the very vast majority of sites in France, we were on septic tanks.

Now the interesting and vitally important point to bear in mind, it is that any toilet additive which contains even the slightest traces of formaldehyde are unsuitable for septic tanks as this dire liquid, immediately stops the natural chemical actions inside the tank! The interesting point to bear in mind is that the vast majority of additives sold in the EU are devoid of this damnable stuff!

I can assure you that it is not funny to have to pump out 15,000 litres of foul smelling sludgy sh*t as well as the soak away area the size of a tennis court just because some inconsiderate ass doesn't believe our requests apply to them!
 
We wanted to empty up in Scotland last year in a public loo, we were at a cafe opposite it having a coffee and I asked the owner if it'd be a problem and he said that the whole village was on a septic tank and they had to stop people emptying cassettes, it wasn't MoHo owners who were the problem but the hire van renters who were totally clueless as to what they had.

Some people have mentioned composting toilets, I was wondering what, where, when and how they were emptied

Check out Natures Head on YouTube.
You will see that urine and poo are divided up in the bowl and kept separately. The urine is stored in a container, which can be emptied whenever and wherever convenient. This may be a disposal point or a hedgerow.
Poo is left to break down over weeks or months and any smell is dealt with by the system.
Other systems are shown on YouTube, and there are some very pleasing designs out there.
 
"This may be a disposal point or a hedgerow."

Is that legal? is it harmful?
