The Innovative Concept of Waterless Urinals

New Delhi, India, August 21, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Even though waterless urinals were first introduced as early as the 1980’s, they failed to attain the level of success expected from such an innovative creation. This was mainly because the people were not made aware of the environmental and other benefits offered by these urinals. The speculations surrounding these eco-friendly urinals are mostly related to the level of hygiene and ease of maintenance offered by them. However, not many people are not aware of the fact that not only are these urinals quite hygienic but they also help to conserve huge quantity of water, which is wasted away in a traditional urinal.

Contrary to the general belief that waterless urinal would have complex parts and structures, they are quite simple. They primarily rely on the principle of gravity and feature a specially designed trap chamber that helps to drain out the waste. The trap chamber is in turn filled with a special liquid called sealant, which being lighter than water does not allow the creation of stink that forms when the urine mixes with water. This not only helps in making the toilet odor free but also keeps it hygienic. In fact the need to control the unpleasant smells of the traditional urinals was one of the major resons behind the development of these innovative mediums of waste disposal.

Another important aspect of waterless urinal is that it helps in saving huge quantities of water. With the traditional ceramic unit using a anywhere between 1- 3 gallons of water, it is not surprising that even a small establishment wastes around 45000 gallons of water each year. This water can easily be saved by using waterless units as they do not use any water and also don’t case any smells or germ buildup in the unit. Moreover, the waterless ceramic urinal uses a special glazed material, which not only provides high surface density and quality finish with a water absorption level of 0.1%. This ensures that the urine does not remain in the unit and lead to bacteria formation.

These waterless urinals also offer the advantage of long life as they are designed to withstand temperatures ranging between minus 20 and 60 degree. These urinals are also coated with a special polyurethane layer that is resistant to corrosion caused alkalis and acids, making them truly durable and long lasting. This further ensures that these units do not lose their bright and clean look even after extensive usage, which is a common problem with regular ceramic urinals. Most importantly this brings down the maintenance cost of the urinals, especially since there are no valves or handles to be replaced, which can be quite expensive even for a small establishment.

When it comes to setting up the waterless units, they are quite compatible with the traditional plumbing systems and hence are easy to install. They do not need any water supplying system as these units are not required to be flushed. This simplifies the installation process further while also brining down the installation costs by a considerable margin. On the sidelines it also reduces the pressure of municipal water supply networks which can be actually helpful in providing water for better uses.

With the growing awareness about the necessity to conserve water, adapting to the waterless urinals might soon become a necessity. And with the additional benefits they offer over conventional urinals, these units surely offer a great solution for human waste disposal in an eco-friendly and economical manner.
