Summary

Description
English: A hand-drawn picture of a clivus multrum composting toilet, based on a drawing from the book "Duurzaam en Gezond Bouwen en Wonen" by Hugo Vanderstadt. Note that sawdust needs to be added in the appropriate C/N (carbon-nitrogen) ratio to the feaces to obtain compost. The sawdust is usually introduced via the defecation hole. Note that crops are best planted nearby that can be used as toilet paper (to retain a good quality humus). Examples are Brachyglottis repanda, Platanus occidentalis, Arctium minus, Abutilon theophrasti, ... (see http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/load/natives/msg0921305230090.html )
