With the rising population in cities there is a rising pressure on natural resources such as water and electricity. Water as being the most significant life-supporting element, and as the sources being limited there are is a great need of conserving it. Though 70% of the earth is occupied with water very less portion of it is consumable. From last two decades various measures and new techniques have been developed to conserve water. Water less urinal is the latest development towards the direction.

What are waterless urinals?

Of most water used, maximum is wasted rather is used in urinals. Understanding this fact, special waterless urinals have been developed, which can successful conserve and save considerable amount of water. Waterless urinals as the name says have provided the options of using urinals eliminating the use of water. Most waterless urinals use waste cartridges, microbial blocks or deodorizing tablets and are outfitted with simple, low cost, inbuilt serviceable water lock.
With the latest models in waterless urinals there is no need to purchase disposable plastic waste cartridges. Instead they employ a low cost and natural biodegradable fluid to block the urine odors. This fluid flows with the urine into the sewer thus blocking the odor.

Benefits of waterless urinals

The best advantage that waterless urinals offer is they save water as they function without water. In addition even cleaning them requires less water compared to the conventional flushing systems. An extensive use of these urinals can release significant amount of pressures from the sewage system and sewage system treatment works.
2. Energy saving
Since large amount of water is saved with the use of waterless urinals, several hundred kilowatt hours of energy per hour is saved which is then used for water purification, transport and later sewage treatment.
3. Less water pollution
As waterless urinals don't require acid-based toilet cleaners and deodorizer, less harmful substance is released through the urinals thus cutting over the pollution.
4. Cost effective
Waterless urinals are made from fiberglass-reinforced polyester that makes it near vandalism-proof and last longer than the conventional urinals thus saving cost.

Along with all these benefits they are safe and more hygienic compared to the conventional urinals. Their surface doesn't attract bacteria and fungi, which are common danger associated with the traditional, flush urinals.
