Jennifer: 
Nothing on their website regarding energy expenditures (100V & 200V
units!) or ash toxicology and its end use.

What is green about using energy that is not generated using a natural
on-site process?
I'd rather see some wind/solar/methane/microbial process applied to
this.... although watch out for the microbes, they can be nasty.

There are models out there that use resultant methane and microbial
action to cook the sewage and no electronics.
Look up the University of Vermont Law School in Royalton, VT, at this
link....

	Does anyone have experience with the Dri-Let toilet systems?
They're billing themselves as an environmentally friendly
self-contained, compact, portable, electric powered toilet system that
processes waste into a fine ash.  I'd love to hear your reviews of the
product, if any of you have used it.  http://www.DriLet-America.com
