  • Incinerating commode
    Patent number: 8533873
    Abstract: An improved incinerating commode for the disposal of human waste through injection of a combustible or cleaning fluid into the chamber where the waste is incinerated, separation of the urine component from the fecal component of human waste, the use of one or more burners, the use of a baffle to increase heat and create turbulent flow, and use of the urine component mixed with a cleaning fluid to steam clean and cool the chamber that incinerates the waste. Cyclic rate is improved by the introduction of a water cooling jacket around the combustion chamber to decrease both cooling and pre-heating times for the combustion chamber. Waste is directed into the combustion chamber using a splash plate.
