Abstract: A waste disposal apparatus for servicing a lavatory of an aircraft. The waste disposal apparatus includes an open-top waste receptacle for accidental fallout of a waste debris or a chemical solution from the aircraft. The waste receptacle includes a plurality of sidewalls that are joined to and extend upwardly from a floor. The floor and the plurality of sidewalls together form a bounds of a workspace within an interior of the waste disposal apparatus. The waste disposal apparatus also includes a plurality of hose ports disposed within the plurality of sidewalls of the waste receptacle. The hose ports include a waste hose port configured to facilitate a transport of waste from the aircraft and a rinse/refill hose port configured to facilitate a transport of a chemical solution to the aircraft. A waste disposal system and a method of servicing an aircraft are also provided.

Abstract: The present invention provides a waste disposal apparatus for assisting in the disposal of waste from an aircraft and replenishment of sanitary chemical solutions to the aircraft during servicing of a variety of aircraft lavatories. The waste disposal apparatus features, among other parts, a waste receptacle, a face shield, multiple interface inserts, a waste hose port, a rinse/refill hose port, an electric wire port, a drain port, and, optionally, one or more add-on tanks. Further, the waste disposal apparatus can be used in conjunction with various types of stands which can be adapted to existing aircraft service vehicles. Through the use of the waste disposal apparatus, the ramp attendant, the aircraft ramp, the tarmac, customer baggage, and other property on the ramp are protected from contamination with human waste and chemical solutions used to deodorize and sanitize aircraft lavatories.
