Sewage gases from toilets post shtf

RE: Sewage gases from toilets post shtf
This one didnt take a lot of space at all,...in more detail......

The toilet was an oil drum with the seat fitted, with a hole in the bottom,... from the bottom hole [ excuse the pun ] he ran a largish pipe about 3-4 inches, he ran it slightly down hill to another container, this consisted of two containers, one inside the other.

The lower container might take a little to describe,... bear with me.

Think of a mug without a handle sitting on your table,.. then get a slightly larger mug without a handle and put the bigger one over the smaller one,... thats the lower container

When you `flushed` just enough to get the solids to move, the waste ran down the pipe into the lower container, the solids remained in the lower half, [ the smaller mug ],.. as the methane was created it rose up into the top part [ the slightly larger mug ],... this part of the container rose up a little with the gas, showing you how much gas you had collected

The tap was on this top half,... you need to go to your local farm to get a bit of muck to start it off,.. but once its going, then normal use is enough to produce enough gas to cook with,....its a great idea, and so simple
