An incinerating toilet is a type of dry toilet that burns human feces instead of flushing them away with water, as does a flush toilet. [1] The thermal energy used to incinerate the waste can be derived from electricity, fuel, oil, or liquified petroleum gas.
A dry toilet (or non-flush toilet, no flush toilet or toilet without a flush) is a toilet which, unlike a flush toilet, does not use flush water. [1] Dry toilets do not use water to move excreta along or block odors. [2] They do not produce sewage, and are not connected to a sewer system or septic tank. Instead, excreta falls through a drop ...
A functional block diagram, in systems engineering and software engineering, is a block diagram that describes the functions and interrelationships of a system. The functional block diagram can picture: [1] functions of a system pictured by blocks; input and output elements of a block pictured with lines; the relationships between the functions ...
A vault toilet is a non-flush toilet with a sealed container (or vault) buried in the ground to receive the excreta, all of which is contained underground until it is removed by pumping.

Example of a system context diagram. [1] A system context diagram in engineering is a diagram that defines the boundary between the system, or part of a system, and its environment, showing the entities that interact with it. [2] This diagram is a high level view of a system. It is similar to a block diagram.
A urine-diverting dry toilet (UDDT) is a type of dry toilet with urine diversion that can be used to provide safe, affordable sanitation in a variety of contexts worldwide. . The separate collection of feces and urine without any flush water has many advantages, such as odor-free operation and pathogen reduction by dry
The bucket toilet system, with collection organised by the municipality, used to be widespread in wealthy countries; in Australia it persisted into the second half of the 20th century. Once the basic bucket toilet has been "improved", it evolves into a number of different systems, which are more correctly referred to as either container-based ...
