Abstract: A raw sewage disposal apparatus capable of evaporating the liquid component of raw sewage contained in an airtight vessel and capable of cleaning the vessel after and evaporating the liquid component of the raw sewage and heating the vessel so that dust which is not evaporated can be collected with assurance, hence the apparatus can be used for a long time. The apparatus comprises a vessel for containing the raw sewage therein, a heater for heating the lower portion of the vessel, an air supply pipe for supplying air into the vessel, a discharge pipe communicating with the vessel for discharging vapor formed by the evaporation of the liquid component for the raw sewage, a catalyst box connected to the discharge pipe by way of a closing valve, a dust collection box connected to the discharge pipe by way of a closing valve and a collection bag housed in the dust collection box for separating the dust from the air and collecting the dust.

Abstract: A raw sewage disposal apparatus, such as a portable toilet. The apparatus has a vessel with a first introduction pipe for feeding raw sewage into the vessel. The vessel is externally heated and contains heat-holding bodies and an agitator so that the sewage can be heated to evaporate liquid therefrom while being agitated to break down nonevaporable substances into powder. Air is circulated through the vessel to remove the vapor and later the powder therefrom. A deodorizing means including a catalyst, and a preheater for preheating the catalyst, are provided to treat the vapor to make it substantially odorless. A dust collector is provided to collect the powder. The dust collector can be heated, if necessary, to evaporate liquid present therein.
