I'm not sure I completely understand this one - and what
happened to "Mist toilet 1"? |
|
| |
Yes, this idea was quickly lost in the mist of time. |
|
| |
Is the mist a low-water usage alternative to the
traditional flush? |
|
| |
It was a mistake to pay so little attention to the idea's precedent. I'm sure you're all mistified, so I'll get to explaining. The original idea was a deodorizing toilet that worked by creating a mist down where the business is done. This idea is essentially a large box that would sit in a bathroom. It would draw air through a mist of water to serve the same purpose. |
|
| |
So it's not actually a toilet? More of a general use room
deodorizer and humidifier? |
|
| |
If I understand, I could bake this by leaving my shower
on/spraying all the time with a box fan blowing air
through the spray... For room deodorizing purposes. |

Just so. Except the envisioned device would recycle the water a few hundred times and store the excess so as not to waste water. |
|
| |
// Different from existing vacuum toilets, that only draw down on the flush? // |
|
| |
Mist toilet 1 would have, iirc, only turned on the mist when it were being sat upon. Mist toilet 2 isn't a toilet. |
|
| |
//recycle the water a few hundred times// So the water gradually gets more and more rank? Like a flush toilet that recycles the waste water into the cistern? |
|
| |
Yup. But it's just from whatever's in the air, so it shouldn't get too bad too fast. |
