ps I copied you're snip about sanitizer to another thread.
Just don't flush that stuff down the toilet. You'll be calling Roto Rooter soon.If you have a roll of paper towels, all you have to do is be inventive...

I was competing! It was a closed event for instructors only. It was a total hoot. No end to the shenanigans. We were trying to get certified as defensive firearms coach’s via ICE. The testing was brutal. 12 hours in classroom then two hours of homework and got tested on homework first thing in the morning. Not all passed. I barely did. It was very very difficult.
Shh That's what keeps the economy going!

Yep, snag it and bag it. Into the trash it goes.

Of course, you can burn it too (just stay upwind).
As long as it get's stuck in your pipes and not the city sewer or the treatment plant.

On happy note yours truly won local St Patrick day shooting event! I have to go retrieve my gift basket and get pictures taken for being the leprechaun champion! I lucked out and shot a perfect score. Most used there target 22s as it was pistols at fifty ft. I used my EDC 9 SIG 320

A few new restored/reworked ones today. These old tech magazines fascinate me. A lot of things they predicted have actually happened...just not quite in the way they thought they might.
Cheryl makes it all the time, and leaves the middle a little gooey. Its always a fight with the grandkids as to who gets the middle. They call it Nana bread.
I knew I should have bought one of those powered composters! LOL

Come to think of it, there was a place I used to reference something completely unrelated from that was also big into dry toilets.
Can't remember the website at the moment.

I had a friend in the park service who had tried a number of different jobs. He had some stories about fishing things out at the sewer treatment facility. Thank you no thanks. I'd prefer to dig ditches all day if given a choice!
Roger that. I talked with a couple of the guys at our Christmas party. Not pretty stuff.
Interesting you say that. I just put mine back in the oven for 5 min after finding the middle a little gooey. LOL

One of the assignments I had when I first started at DuPont was to work on “odor reduction” initiatives at municipal sewage treatment plants. We had to be in every step of the process and learn about it so we could develop new processes to reduce the odors the plants emitted.
The “collection” pumping room is the worst. It’s a confined area where all the raw sewage is pumped for distribution to the treatment tanks. We used to call it “the asshole of the community”.
You literally had to throw your clothes away after spending just 5 minutes in that area. They could never be cleaned enough to eliminate the smell.
You said Gooey......

Its a treat gooey is good. She makes it for them all the time and its funny watching them eat it from the middle out.
Special events, going on dirt bike weekends, feeling down, one broke a leg, we leave town for a week, even one was feeling sick...they'll call and ask for Nana bread. Their Mom's don't even try to make it.
I assume someone (maybe not Dupont) tried ozone chambers?
It was hard to "like" your post. LOL

We used something far more advanced. We used various oxygen reactions with reusable chemicals to do the work. It was known as “Advanced Oxidation”. Simple things like iron oxide could be used repeatedly when recharged with hydrogen peroxide moving between oxidation states and freeing single oxygen molecules to react with the odor causing compounds before they could become airborne.
The processes we developed back in the late 80s are still being used by municipal sewage treatment facilities across the country. Rendering plants and composting plants use it too.
It’s why the sewage plant on I-95 next to the Philadelphia airport doesn’t stink anymore. We fixed that one as one of our first projects. Those big flame burners you see there going 24/7 are the last step in the odor abatement.
Fertlizer is hitting the ventilator at the City Council meeting to adopt a budget. One of the council members had 3 different proposals and a few min. ago proposed a combination of all 3. The proposals were supposed to be in on Monday which he did with the 3 but not the combined one. He just asked for a recess so my wife could try to figure out if his proposal would even work. What an *** he is. It takes weeks to put together a budget and she is supposed to go through it all in 15 min? WTF. I think I need a drink. I hope his shenanigan doesn't work and it get's thrown out. What a waste of time! Rant over. LOL
