Explore our Bio-Toilet kits below and find the best match for you:
“Business” is conducted and then flushed down the toilet
Human waste is converted via an anaerobic digestion process
Biogas is created and accumulates inside the system
Effluent can either run back into an underground drain field or into a mulch basin to grow a beautiful and thriving garden
The HomeBiogas Bio-Toilet Kit is a superior alternative to regular compost toilets. It frees you to live in a self-sustainable manner by turning your Your waste into cooking gas.
It’s very simple: all you need to do is to flush the waste down the Bio-toilet. The waste then goes through the waste pipes into the system, where the anaerobic bacteria break it down into biogas for clean cooking and effluent for further treatment in mulch basin/ septic or sewage. (following local regulation)
Yes! As long as it is within the right distance from the system.
Depends on the system you have. Start with 25 flushes for HomeBiogas 2 and up to 75 for HomeBiogas 6.
No, it is not necessary.
You can feed whenever you want, you can miss days. The system is designed to provide biogas only when you feed.
The Biotoilet takes 1.2L per flush, but may vary as each “slight” pump uses only 300 ml of water.
No! Both in term of design and water use.
No need to separate urine! HomeBiogas Bio-toilet is very easy to use and all you need to do is flush your toilet.
Toilet paper is not recommended to be used in the system as it can get stuck in the pipes in larger quantities.
Once every 6 months, you’ll need to replace the gas filter.
Water, vinegar and ecological cleaners only! Do not use chemicals as it will kill the bacteria.
One of the greatest advantages of the Bio-Toilet is that it’s odorless.
Super easy! All you need is a small field, filled with mulch and topped with soil. For the dimensions, please see the Bio-toilet manuals and this installation video.
The effluent flows continuously with every flush.
There are 3 options to treat the effluent: (1) building an off grid mulch basin or drain field. (2) connecting the system’s outlet to the septic (3) connecting the system’s oulet to the sewage Please note that you’ll need to follow according to your local regulation on any of the 3 options mentioned above. HomeBiogas’s recommendation is 1 – a mulch basin or drain field.
The effluent that is released from the system’s outlet requires further treatment and can not be used on edible plants.
The water heater should be installed in an open and sheltered area. If you are installing it in a well-ventilated indoor location, we recommend purchasing a 90 mm (3.5 inch) diameter chimney. The chimney should be installed according to local regulations. A general guideline would be an upward slope and a maximum length of 2m.
You can put it anywhere you want as long as it is within the right distance from the system?
If the toilet and system are the same height, then the distance between the two can be up to 5m/16 ft. If the toilet is 1m higher than the distance between the two, the distance can be up to 10m/32ft.
HomeBiogas Bio-toilet is completely off-grid and does not require any electricity.
Not at all! all you need is a standing source of water like a bucket.
Here’s a video to show you just how easily it’s done.
No, activation needs to be done at a warmer temperature. At least 21C/ 69F.
We do not recommend using HomeBiogas at or below freezing points.
HomeBiogas loves warmer climates. With that being said, human waste doesn’t require lots of energy to breakdown, therefore a minimum temperature of 41F/ 5C is needed. (gas may not accumulate below 50F, but we do have a solution for that — the HomeBiogas booster kit! )
HomeBiogas is a safe product for the following reasons: (1) the biogas is uncompressed (2) stored at low pressure (3) its on top of thousands of liters of water so in case it catches fire it will be turned off rapidly (4) Biogas is a lightweight gas, so in case it leaks it will move upwards pausing no health risk.
Since it does not release smells it won’t attract animals. However, if you think an animal might cause damage to the system, we recommend placing it in a greenhouse or adding fences around the system.
HomeBiogas system is made from two layers: one to provide strength and the other to prevent leaks!
Short answer no. Long answer: The biogas that is created in the system is uncompressed and is stored at low pressure which makes it very hard for the biogas to explode. HomeBiogas is also ISO certified.
