Abstract (en)

[origin: US2007199140A1] The present invention relates generally to a device for manufacturing organic compost from human excrements in a toilet to automatically transform human excrements into organic compost. More particularly, the present invention comprises a transport belt installed under a seat disposed on a main body of a toilet, capable of transporting excrements; a stirring room mixing with a stirring blade the excrements transported by the transport belt; a microorganism hopper installed on the upper side of the stirring room, feeding microorganisms into the excrements stirred in the stirring room; a muck collector receiving and storing the excrements crushed in the stirring room; a liquid collector receiving and evaporating urine fallen from the transport belt; an air purifying room drying excrements and urine in the main body, purifying and discharging air through an exhaust pipe; and a controller installed at a side of the main body, controlling electrical operation of the above components. The device for manufacturing organic compost from human excrements in a toilet according to the present invention has advantages that water consumption in the toilet is reduced, contamination of water and environment is reduced since excrement treatment/purifying facility is not required, and organic compost for planting crops is also supplied.
