Benefits of technology
"The present invention is a waste treatment system that can handle organic waste with liquids and solids. It has a frame and a cabin that is supported on the frame. The floor of the cabin is clamped tightly using a removable plate that is connected to the frame. The waste treatment system also includes a fluid supply tank that is connected to a toilet unit. This tank is positioned five feet above the frame. The technical effect of this invention is that it provides a compact and efficient way to dispose of organic waste while minimizing the amount of liquids and solids that end up in landfills."
Problems solved by technology
Maintenance transportation industry has limited options for handling organic waste having liquids and solids generated from on-board restroom facilities.
However, the aforementioned solution is undesirable for various reasons, such as, for example, a storage space, required for storing the organic waste, not to mention the time it takes to pump the organic waste in combination with the cost and inconvenience of storage of the organic waste.
During transportation of the prior art cabin between various locations, the deficit of clearance, defined between the comers of the floor of the cabin and the frame in the aforementioned fashion, may result in cracking of the floor and walls integrally connected to and extending upwardly from the floor of the cabin, specially when the cabin is used in open and windy area, such as, for example, the aforementioned construction sites, parks, and railroad tracks.

Embodiment Construction
[0020] Referring to the Figures, wherein like numerals indicate like or corresponding parts, a waste treatment assembly adaptable for mobile use is generally shown at 10 in FIGS. 1 through 6. The waste treatment assembly 10 includes a waste treatment system, generally shown at 12 and discussed in greater detail further below, provides a sanitary toilet facility in a mobile environment such as, for example, railroad work sites or construction sites. The waste treatment system 12 processes organic waste having liquids and solids and is capable of treating the organic waste by decomposing the organic waste into vapor and liquids.
[0021] Referring to FIGS. 1 though 4, the waste treatment assembly 10 includes a platform or frame 14 having parallel rails 16, 18 and a pair of cross or end beams 22, 23 defining first and second ends 20, 21, respectively. The parallel rails 16, 18 are interconnected by a plurality of cross beams 24 spaced one from the other and extending parallel to and betw...

A waste treatment assembly for processing organic waste includes a frame having rails interconnected by a plurality of cross members. A waste treatment system is supported on the frame. A cabin of organic polymer presenting a floor and side walls extends upwardly from and connected to the frame. A metal plate extends over the floor and connects the floor to the frame by sandwiching the floor between the plate and the frame thereby clamping the cabin to the frame. A toilet unit of the waste treatment system is connected to the metal plate. A support interconnects the frame and the metal plate for distributing loads under the toilet unit equally over the floor for preventing the floor from bending under the loads applied thereto.
Description
RELATED APPLICATION [0001] The subject patent application claims priority to and all the benefits of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60 / 499,244 filed on Aug. 29, 2003.FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0002] The subject invention relates to a waste treatment system, which may be used in commercial transportation vehicles such as railroad vehicles, and the like. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003] Maintenance transportation industry has limited options for handling organic waste having liquids and solids generated from on-board restroom facilities. Such facilities are preferably mobile and do not have septic systems. One solution has been to store the organic waste in the on-board restroom facility, until it can be pumped out at a designated location. However, the aforementioned solution is undesirable for various reasons, such as, for example, a storage space, required for storing the organic waste, not to mention the time it takes to pump the organic waste in combination with the ...
