Leaving aside the passengers who like to travel in airplanes, even today crores of people would have never boarded a flight. This is the reason why people do not know many things related to planes. For example, everyone knows about trains, but if there is a pee-poop on the flight, how will you use the plane's toilet? Such questions must have come to the mind of those who board an airplane for the first time. If this thought has also come to your mind about whether the passengers' pee-poop would fall on the ground after coming out of the toilet, then ending all the suspense, we tell you how the airplane's toilet system works.
During air travel, some people may be confused about the fact that when they go to the toilet on the flight, where does the waste material go? Do they fall in the air itself? If you also think like this, then nothing like this happens. We are going to tell you the whole truth about how the toilet system of a plane works.
Is the dirt of the passengers thrown into the air from the sky? Why is water not flushed in the toilet of the plane and how does the toilet system of the flight work? Let us tell you everything one by one.
The toilet of the plane does not work like the toilet of your house. The waste from the bathroom of our house reaches the sewer system through the drain. A toilet with a vacuum system with blue color chemicals is used in the toilet of the airplane.
The feces of the passengers traveling in the airplane do not fall directly from the toilet. It goes into a tank present in the airplane itself and gets collected.
Actually, at present, almost all airplanes have vacuum toilets. Water is not used to flush the toilet of the airplane, it goes directly from the commode to the tank through the vacuum system.
The vacuum toilet of the plane separates water and solid feces. There is a special type of tank at the back of all airplanes, where all the feces of the passengers get collected. According to media reports, the capacity of this toilet tank on the flight is about 200 liters.
No matter which airline company it is, except for a few exceptions, there is usually a very small toilet in the airplane. Along with that, there is the same tank to store urine and feces. About which we have just told you in the slide above. Now technology has become so high-fi that vacuum toilets are built into flights.
Water is not used to flush the toilet. Through this vacuum system, the waste material goes directly into the tank and keeps collecting. Probably the capacity to store waste material in the tank is two hundred liters. There can be a difference in this capacity on all flights.
For the past several decades, vacuum toilets have been used in airplanes, which filter the water and send it to one side and the solid feces to the other side. That is, the vacuum toilet of the plane separates water and solid feces. There is a special type of tank at the back of all airplanes, where all the feces and urine of the passengers are collected.
The airplane toilet tank filled with feces is opened at the airport after every flight lands. Then the cleaners present there empty it. Let us tell you that this tank opens outwards. So now you must have come to know where the dirt inside the airplane toilet goes.
