Nitrate-laden effluent from unimproved pit latrines can directly contaminate groundwater. Waterless toilet technology can provide a safer and more efficient option. Waterless toilets are ideal for environments that lack ample water resources, are prone to drought, or have contaminated water sources. Waterless composting pit latrines are one promising alternative because they do not require plumbing, drains, pipes, or chemicals, and transform waste into odorless compost.
