2.4 What can be placed in the Composting
Toilet Biolan
eco
The Composting Toilet Biolan eco is intended for composting toilet
waste as well as household bio-waste. Kitchen waste intensifies
the composting process by balancing and diversifying the nutri-
tion base of the compost. Cover the kitchen waste carefully with
bulking material. Any kitchen waste, left in the open, may attract
flies.
Do not put into the toilet anything that hampers the composting
process or does not compost, such as:
• debris, sanitary towels
• chemicals, lime
• detergents, washing water
• ash, cigarette butts, matches
You can put into the toilet paper towelettes intended for cleaning
hands or for intimate hygiene.
2.5 Using bulking material
After every time the toilet is used, apply approximately 0.2-0.5
litres of Biolan Compost and Toilet Bulking Material over the left
matter. Note that bulking material must also be applied after uri-
nating. Applying suitable bulking material is essential for proper
operation of the toilet. We recommend using the Biolan Compost
and Toilet Bulking Material as bedding.
2.6 Year-round use of the Composting Toilet
Biolan
eco
In a toilet located in a non-heated space, the mass will cool down
and may even freeze in frost or if the use is occasional. Freez-
ing damages neither the unit nor the compost mass itself and the
composting process continues when the temperature rises. To
reduce leakage of the seep liquid, we recommend using a dou-
ble dosage of Biolan Compost and Toilet Bulking Material in the
winter. Empty the seep liquid canister in the autumn to prevent
it from cracking due to freezing. If you intend to use the toilet in
winter, empty it in the autumn to provide space for the mass that
will accumulate in the winter.
If the toilet is to be used daily also during the cold season, locate
the unit in a heated space. See point 1.2.
2.7 Emptying the Composting Toilet Biolan
eco
Only empty from the Composting Toilet Biolan eco compost that
has reached the cover soil stage, and leave the raw waste still
in the tank. To enable an efficient uninterrupted composting
process, we recommend that no more than half of the mass be
discharged from the unit at a time. Toilet waste matures to cover
soil stage in 5-8 weeks, after which it can be discharged. Do not
empty the tank until it has become full for the first time. There is
no need to wash the toilet tank internally when emptying it.
Toilet waste can be so tough that it does not drop down onto the
bottom of the toilet unit by itself after the emptying. If this is
the case, push the mass down using a stick or the Compostmixer.
This is easiest to begin from the corners. Be careful not to break
the air channel (part 8) in the centre of the toilet unit.
If the toilet is to be used only in summer, empty it in spring before
using it for the first time. The emptying process is most conveni-
ent and easiest at this stage. If the compost mass is still frozen
during emptying, thaw it by pouring a bucket of hot water through
the seat ring opening a few hours before emptying.
2.8 Emptying the seep liquid canister
Keep an eye on the filling pace of the seep liquid canister, as seep
liquid is created more at the initial stage of use. As soon as the
composting process starts, the heat generated will significantly
intensify the evaporation of the liquid. You can utilise the seep
liquid, that is rich in nutrients, as a source of nitrogen for com-
post. This intensifies the activity of the garden compost in par-
ticular, as it is poor in nutrients but rich in carbon. This way, you
do not have to dilute the seep liquid.
You can also use seep liquid as fertiliser for ornamental plants in
the yard and garden. A safe dilution ratio is 1:5. Undiluted seep
liquid can also be used, but then you must water the area care-
fully after the application to avoid early blight.
Fertilising in the autumn is not recommended so as not to disturb
the preparation of perennial plants for winter. The recommended
storing time for the seep liquid before use as fertiliser is approxi-
mately one year.
2.9 Cleaning the Composting Toilet Biolan
eco
As required, you can remove the thermal seat of the Composting
Toilet Biolan
eco
, and wash it using any common domestic cleaning
agents. Likewise, you can wash the unit externally using domestic
cleaning agents.
There is no need to wash the toilet tank internally when empty-
ing it.
Check the seep liquid pipe and the liquid separator plate as well
as the seep liquid chute below it once a year and clean them, as
required.
3. POST-TREATMENT AND USE OF THE
COMPOST
3.1 Need for post-composting
Compost soil changes and develops constantly. It should be used
in a different manner in different stages of its development. Typi-
cally compost soil is divided into two groups based on its matu-
rity: cover soil and compost soil.
Usually, the compost mass emptied from the Composting Toilet
Biolan
eco
has already matured to the cover soil stage. Because of
seep liquid leaching through the compost, the compost is recom-
mended exclusively for ornamental plants.
If you intend to use it for a vegetable plot, you shall post-compost
it for about a year in order to exterminate microbes. During post-
composting the cover soil matures into compost soil. Correctly
used, the compost soil is excellent soil conditioner and fertiliser
to plants.
3.2 Using cover soil
By cover soil we mean the semi-mature compost mass. At this
stage, decomposing has reached a level where toilet waste and
possible food waste have already decomposed. Harder wood
matter and, for example, eggshells and citrus fruit peels may not
yet have completely decomposed; thus the cover soil has quite
a rough look. In the Composting Toilet Biolan
eco
, this stage is
reached in 5 to 8 weeks. The semi-mature compost soil may still
possess substances that prevent “plant” growth. Hence it must not
be used as growing substrate. The cover soil, i.e. the semi-mature
compost, is not harmful to the plants, if it is spread to cover the
planting area of ornamental plants as a layer of a few centimetres.
A suitable thickness for the layer to be applied is about 2–5 cm.
Please consult your local waste advisor for regula-
tions on composting.
