How do you use a toilet in Antarctica?

Answer 1

Human waste is either flushed into the Southern Ocean from research stations on the coasts, stored -- frozen -- in waste pits in more inland stations, or collected in bags, frozen and then returned to the country that supports the research station and its field camps.

Answer 2

You'd have to bring a 'poop' bag, and a bottle to pee in. You are not allowed to have Number 1's & 2's in the Antarctic, because of pollution and it is illegal.

Another Answer

Research stations offer full toilet facilities, including running water. They also include Gerry-rigged 55-gallon drum urine capture devices built with interior funnels and tubes that feed the exterior-mounted drums. Field camp sites include at least a two-sided barrier -- often a complete shed -- with a bag-equipped chair device that captures human waste. Frozen bags full and all urine drums are shipped back to the country that supports the research facility where the waste was generated.

Answer 3

Human waste from scientific research stations is usually frozen into the ice in a human waste dump, unless the station is on the water, in which case it is often pumped into the ocean.

From American field camps, however, human waste is collected in bags -- it freezes quite quickly -- and the bags are returned, together with all field camp waste to the supporting research station.

Waste that cannot be treated or disposed of on the continent, including human waste, is brought back to the United States by ship and disposed of in American waste disposal systems.

Answer 4

Human waste is eliminated by humans in Antarctica in basically the same way it is eliminated by humans everywhere on earth.

Your question may have to do with the disposal of the waste. Upon elimination, of course, the waste is frozen and stowed. Bulk loads of human waste is finally loaded on ships and returned to the country that supports the research station where the waste was generated.

Answer 5

Toilet facilities exist at research stations and toilets there operate the same way toilets operate all over the world. Waste is run into the salt water if the station is near salt water, or run into frozen pits, which change when they are full.

Field camp toilets collect waste in bags, which freeze quickly, and all waste is shipped back to the country supporting the field camp.

Answer 6

Generally, because these explorers were either experienced in exploration or military living, latrine trenches were dug, used and covered -- where the waste froze.
