Benefits of technology

[0013] The pipe is secured to said container by an upper housing which is adapted to be fastened to an upper surface of said container

Problems solved by technology

But it also subjects them to properly metering the use.
This presents the likelihood of human error.
If too much cleaner is used, it is wasted.
If too little, then holding-tank odor and soiling problems (caused by the failure to decompose the solid waste) may result.
Unfortunately, with these systems the cleaner sometimes is not thoroughly mixed

Embodiment Construction

[0019] The present invention provides a system and method for delivering a chemical substance in a fluid delivery line for the purpose of sanitizing and deodorizing waste water which is destined for storage in a holding tank most typically in some sort of self contained system like those that exist in recreational vehicles, commercial airliners, or marine vessels. Other kinds of portable waste management systems, however, could use the devices and / or techniques disclosed herein and still fall within the scope of the present invention. The processes and devices could also be employed for other applications in which a fluid is chemically treated. Further, the present invention may take the form of a device embodiment or a method embodiment for chemically treating a fluid.

[0020] The device is a dispenser which is adapted so that it can be spliced into the pressurized water supply line for the water consuming device, which may be a toilet, shower, or any other kind of device which cons...

Abstract

Disclosed is a chemical administrator which delivers a chemical solution into a water supply line for a water-consuming device, e.g., a toilet in a recreational vehicle, for the purpose of treating waste-water before it is disposed in a holding tank. The apparatus has a container which holds the chemical solution. It also has a chemical administering system which siphons the chemical from the container into said water supply line using a vacuum created by the water moving through it.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] Not applicable. STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT [0002] Not applicable. TECHNICAL FIELD [0003] This invention relates to the field of introducing treating chemicals into water in a sewer-storage system. More particularly, the present invention provides a new and useful method for treating wastewater in a self-contained bathroom, e.g., in a recreational vehicle or on a marine craft. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0004] Many recreational vehicles and marine craft have self-contained bathrooms. The fixtures in these bathrooms (e.g., toilets) are served using a pressurized source of clean water which introduces the clean water into the toilet bowl via a hose. [0005] Waste water is disposed into holding tanks. The holding tank is typically located immediately below the toilet so that when the toilet is flushed, the wastewater drops down through a vertical conduit into the tank. The wastewater is maintained in the...
