Passive-solar composting-toilet project. Final technical report

Technical Report ·

OSTI ID:5753103

The Long Branch Environmental Education Center, Inc. has designed, constructed, put into operation and is continuing to monitor two passive solar composting toilets, one at the Western NC Nature Center, and one at the Long Branch E.E. Center. The WNC Nature Center is a public educational and recreational facility, and the unit installed at the Long Branch Center is located in a passive solar greenhouse attached to one of the Center's staff residences, and as such, can be considered a residential installation. Each of the units was constructed in a workshop format, thus providing an educational experience for all those attending and participating. Since their construction, several thousand people have had the opportunity to examine the units, including the interpretive exhibits located in each facility. Detailed plans and blueprints have been produced of the design, black and white photos, and color photos and slides of the construction process have also been produced. A brief pamphlet has also been created and printed and is made available to the public at both installations.
