OK, here's the issue... I've been asked to do a little research to find out if there is a system that can deal with people flushing foreign objects (clothing, towels, sheets, etc.) down public toilets.
So far I've found up-flushing systems like Saniflo's macerating toilets, but they're just designed to liquify stuff that you'd expect to be in a toilet. I've also looked into incinerating toilets, but they have the same issue, plus I think that if you stuffed some big foreign object into them they'd just burn the building down.
Any thoughts? Has anyone worked on prisons that might have specified something that would work.
hmmm...
i wonder if you can devise your own system, where you have a standard toilet fixture and then, burried in the wall with an access panel, or in a jan. cl. behind the toilets you install an industrial grade garbage disposal on the waste pipe?
Figure out a way to keep people from putting said foreign objects into the toilet in the first place. What the hell kind of person tries to flush a sheet?
it's a public restroom in a park which is frequented by homeless people... apparently they have gotten better and better at forcing foreign objects through the toilet itself and into the waste stack... and then of course people keep using the toilets even though they are backed up... lovely picture huh... the last time it happened it took a plumber over 4 hours to get whatever was in the pipe out...
I've always wanted to try to flush a glass bottle down a commercial strength toilet to see if the immense forces would shatter it. I swear the ones we have here would cause a beer bottle to implode.
I used one of the toyo toilets with the seat which does just about everything for you.....Funny thing is it comes with a remote...and my client ask if he could get a second remote for when his father inlaw came to visit. Think he was thinking about messing with his mind
while using the toilet.
grinding or incinerating toilets

how about:
nonflushing with a very, very deep hole in the ground that has cotton eating bacteria in the black water
coin-op crappers that discriminate against the coinless
make it practically unenclosed, save money on the enclosure, dont heat it, dont spend money on advanced toilet technology and pay for an attendant
keep babies out of toliets!!!
Maybe a flow diverter to a gas-fired ignition system?
This is sounding a bit like the architect sketch.
Sorry,
I have no legitimate answers.
That applies to my life in general, by the way.
